Spacing Macros

I was talking to Jared yesterday and he asked if a macro in his Plan could set the framing spacing text so that his Detail Plan would match.  That way he could have his Details labeled to match his Framing Plans.

 

So I put together a set of macros for 12", 16" & 24" spacing of Ceiling Joists, Floor Joists and Rafters.

 

So it's only necessary to have the macros that set the spacing located one place in the Plan.  I would use the Structural Notes to embed those macros.  Then the display macros could be located in text boxes - or even in conjunction with the Framing Members(s) macro - anyplace they are needed:  Framing Plans, Details, etc. and for16" spacing will display the text as:

 

   @ 16" o.c.

 

Since there is a different set of macros for CJ, FJ & R it allows flexibility to use different spacing for the 3 member types.

 

I have attached the macros - I think the names are pretty much self explanatory but if you have any questions let me know.
