RGWhite Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Thanks. I knew how in X6 but the new menu in X7 is confusing. Its very different from previous version. Anyone else having this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcland Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Did they fix the 3d view of metal stud walls? The studs do not follow the curve in metal curved walls in all previous versions back to x1. The top plate and bottom plate do but not the studs. You can take the same curved wall and convert it to wood framing and the studs follow the curve....asked to have this address for years now and still no fix. Even if you initially draw the wall as a wood stud curved wall and convert to steel studs - the metal studs do not follow the curve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard_Morrison Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 The studs follow the curve, but the top/bottom channels do not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
