    joist hangers

    in Architecture

    Posted

    I see all kinds of fasteners in my tool set even a 'detail wood cut' tool, but no hardware like joist hangers, post bases, brackets....Simpson stuff!

    Is there a resource for these items?

    schedules

    in Architecture

    Posted

    If I want to remove some of the columns/fields associated with a door schedule, do I edit it like any other spreadsheet? It will only affect the one door schedule that I am working on, correct?

    Can I save the DS after I modify it to my liking for use on future projects?

    Visibility Issues

    in Architecture

    Posted

    I had a symbol that was composed of 2d & 3d features. I converted the symbol to a group, un grouped it (don't remember why), edited it and saved as a symbol.

    Now none of the 3d objects are visible in top/plan view. In an iso view they appear, but then the 2d objects do not appear.

    Is there solution to this or do I have to re-draw a bunch of stuff?

    viewport overrides

    in Architecture

    Posted

    I would like to override a graphic attributes of my wall styles in a viewport.

    Instead of having solid lines for walls, my engineer prefers dashed lines.

    Is it possible to make such an alteration to wall styles in a viewport?

    I've been trying, but no success.

    palettes

    in Architecture

    Posted

    What could have caused my snap palette to not allow me to resize/shape it?

    I move cursor near edge and it changes to double arrow, but will not affect the palette. Attribute palette the same. But basic and tool sets can be manipulated.

    moving windows

    What is the simplest way to move these two windows so that the space between them centers on the center-line? See Attached.

    Reshape tool not solving it.

    Publish not printing tiles

    in Architecture

    Posted

    On a 2d elevation view I used a Tile for some stonework. Also I used Hatches for lap siding and shingles. All publishes to pdf correctly except the Tile. It does not print. If I just "print" one page it shows up, but not in "publish" mode.

    window insertion

    in Architecture

    Posted

    when inserting a window in a wall (top plan view) when it is time to set the 'flip', which way do you drag your cursor? What I want to know is how is the interior verses exterior of a window determined? Does VW intuitively know? Or is there a particular way to set the window?

    text tools

    in Architecture

    Posted · Edited by jmartinarch

    Is there a hidden tool or perhaps one of the text tools that I'm not aware of to place

    a shape like a triangle or diamond with text in it? I need it for identifying shear walls, etc...

    The revision bubble works if I don't need to use a letter. Only numbers.

    Doors Thresholds

    in Architecture

    Posted

    I like to show the threshold at exterior doors. Plan view a line flush with interior wall and exterior side 1-1/2" or 2" beyond door jamb return flush with jamb.

    I get it set up in door settings, but when I go to my model the threshold is to the interior rather than exterior. It is a swing in config. I can flip the door but the threshold stays in place.

    Does anyone use thresholds? Mr. Cipes?

    Or just add some 2D touches then model the exterior if really necessary.

    Or do I just reverse engineer the data in the threshold settings.

    Because really the door doesn't know which is interior or exterior does it?
