Hey M-Rick,

Are you using that to dress you r images the way people sometimes do in Photoshop?

Just curious. If so I wouldn't mind seeing the results.

Thanks for your reply Andrew. I am aware of the way to acheive my final request in the image settings, but I consider those images more for screen purposes. They are very enormous files when setting an image at print quality, so the objective here would be to have these extensions in the vector leve...

Hi Marr,

Send me an email and I'll send you something you can use.

Here is how i do it... I have created a simple symbol. I import it and scale it to the size I need. (My symbol fills a 4" stud wall.) Then I explode the ones on the ends so that I can trim them to fit properly.

So you do the 9-5 windows thing too, eh? I have gone to your website, I thought you just did the solo gig.

A mac emulator would be nice, but I think it would be even nicer to just work in officed that use mac!!!

cheers. I will test your advice when i get home.

Thanks for the help Alex, but I am still a little puzzled... and perhaps I should wait until I get home but, which command do I use? I was clicking on circle and then using the curved line by three points method. Is that the correct way or how would I draw curved lines with this info? thanks again, ...

curved site lines...

Hi guys,

Just neede to use this post... great.

One other thing though, which I am pretty desperate to know; what about when some of the lines are curved? Like: R=330', A=11°37'30", L=66.96.

Thanks.

grouping, shortcut, offset & LINE EXTENSION...

Here are a few more wishes to add to my list; 1. When grouping objects I would like them to retain their properties within the group, ie lineweight, color etc. 2. A shortcut key to repeat the last command. 3. Being able to offset the same object twice in the same command (example: if I set a line wh...

curved walls!!!

OK - this is a big one... I am using walls way more these days, but the curved walls are still a really big problem! I don't know what to suggest but there must be a way that they can be made to integrate more smoothly... If you want to see some of the problems I have had with them, I can send you a...

bi-folding doors!!!

I have started working with walls a little more in plan. I would like to have bi-folding doors for sure (for closets and such) and basically just a larger selection. Would there be a way to create custom doors and windows that could be inserted in the walls just like the predefined ones? That would ...

Just want to add my support for ybalx's request. I think it would be really great to see what others are doing with HD - sharing ideas and building a little more community.
It would also maybe further entice visitors - by showing a growing network of users and support.

cheers,

Draw your border in a fresh file at 1:1 scale to your paper dimensions (do plenty of print previews to make sure it is not imperceptibly crossing the print margin border and forcing your prints to span more than one sheet!). Then choose all items and in the file menu choose save special - as new sym...

Hi Johnallred, I don't totally understand your question, but one thing that might really help is to know that the line types are scale independant. So a #2 line (simple dash) will look the same on paper no matter what scale it is printed at and will thereforel look very different relative to two dra...
