CADD16 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 When I draw a deck it will not auto frame. I have the Auto Frame checkbox checked and the approbate layers are turned on. I can't figure out why the deck framing won't work. Has anyone had this issue before or have some suggestions? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Right Click on the Deck and select "Create Deck Framing". Decks don't use the regular "Floor Framing" tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CADD16 Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 It's weird but that doesn't work, I've turned on all layer to see if I'm missing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayCas Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 guessing Make sure that room (deck) is closed Open this deck room and make sure it knows it's a deck Go to the deck tab and make sure auto deck frame is checked Go to "all on " layer set and select all on, again? spin the house every which way and take a look,,,, out of guesses! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADD16 Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 Thanks for all the suggestions. This isn't happening on just one plan. RayCas, I've tried those to make sure I wasn't missing something simple. Still no deck framing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
