Hello,
I would like to copy a garage from a another plan onto my own house plan so I can work the property setbacks in right.
I tried to make a cad block out of the entire building but only cad items display. Any ideas?
Thanks and take care.......Pete
Edit/Edit area(all floors)
drag a box around the building or part of a building to copy.
Paste into the new drawing and position using point to point tool.
the floor defaults (ceiling heights and such) must match from one plan to the next for the best results.
This will copy the 3D and 2D model parts within your edit box boundary.
I have a problem along these lines I could use help with...
I am drawing plans for several houses being built in a cul-de-sac, I would like to copy all of the finished houses into one master site plan, showing the plot locations etc. as well as a 'streetscape' of how the finished scenario will look. I have done this before, with a straight street quite easily with the method mentioned above.
My problem with working on the cul-de-sac, is that I will have to rotate each house slightly (around a curve). Moving and adjusting entire houses with the 'EDIT/ALL FLOORS' makes me cringe but I might have no other choice. I would think there is the ability to possibly 'block' an entire house? Maybe? Maybe, Cross referencing from one file to a master file... maybe not possible. I am stumped
Any help would be much appreciated

Brent:
you should post your query in the new chieftalk forum
this one is closing to postings on Thursday
short answer, create a symbol of each building and place the symbol in the master plan
then rotate as needed
