  1. Thanks Scott. Just needed confirmation. Not ideal, but this is a poolhouse, not a full kitchen.
  2. Is there any way to modify a kitchen cabinet so the back is set to 0 to create a triangular cabinet? I have a kitchen where the front will taper from 18" to 0 in the back, as the cabinets finish at an angled wall. I have played with the angled front, but its not exactly as I envisioned. I kind of solved it by making a cabinet that is only 4 inches deep and cover with a custom counter, but wondered if there was an alternative for these (rare) instances? Cabinet.pdf Cabinet elev.pdf
  3. Is there a way to add decorators base instead of toekick to an island? I can get base on the front of a cabinet, but on the sides that have gables, there doesn't seem to be a way of adding anything. Would like something with a little more detail than the straight base which means I can't use soffit to recreate.
  4. Hi Derek, Thanks for that info. I was on the right track as I did everything you posted, but wasn't sure if that was correct. I'll definitely take a look at the link!
  5. Can anyone tell me how to create a building wall with laminated 2x8 at the top? I'm building a pole shed and need details for the building department. The walls are built from 8x8 posts on 8' centers with a laminated 3 ply 2x8 beam on the top to support the trusses. There is 1x6 strapping on the outside to support the siding. I can change the wall design so it matches the posts with strapping, but it builds it with a top plate which is not correct. If I change it to a railing, that builds the beam but I can't put the strapping and finishes on. Is there a way to do this or am I stuck on this?

    stairs.pdf This is what the stairs look like currently. I would like them to not have the railing at the wall at the lower portion.stairs.pdf

    Stair railings

    I need to customize railings for "U" shaped stairs. I need to put railings on upper staircase on inside to post on the landing, and on the lower level on outside. Is there a way to do this? Is it possible to have the stairs unconnected?
  9. I need to create a large format tile (24" X 48") with a marble look. Don't seem to have much success creating tile in the user catalogue that appears as a tile. When placing on a wall there doesn't appear to be any grout lines, and if I take an existing tile I can't get the right "marble" look. I have created a "tile" from a slab, changed the pattern to grid, and set the scale, but I'm at a loss as to how to create the grout lines. Any help would be appreciated.

    Roof issues

    I have a hip roof with a nested gable and am trying to get full roof returns on the gables. It will give me a full return on the one gable, but not the other. I can re-draw new plan with just nested gables and that will work, but as soon as I attach to the hip roof, it deletes the one roof return. Is this a glitch, and is there a way around it? File was too large, so I recreated the same issueroof problem.plan 232035 roof.pdf roof problem.plan
  11. I'm wondering how I can place a dormer on a very small structure. 12' x 24' and with an 8 pitch roof. Just want to place a very small shed dormer, and each time I place an auto one, it will not meet the roof, even with a 3 pitch. I tried manually creating, but I don't want interior walls.

    Terrain Perimeter

    Is there any way to show the terrain perimeter in the foundation level? I need to submit a building plan to City showing the house on the building lot, but I would like to show the original foundation, and our addition as the re-build involves tearing down the original house and re-building to the max allowed on the site. With so many changes on the main floor it is clearer to show the existing foundation, and the addition planned. Thx
  14. Ok, I see what you've done. That should work here as well.
