Pressure treated plate
Any way in defaults that you can set up that the sill plate is pressure treated or is it just lumped in with the average framing member. I know I can do it one at a time, but... Same thing with marking deck framing at treated. I was able to change the material to pressure treated in the defaults, but I know there is a place to check it as "treated" in the framing member dialoge. Stil can not find that box in the default settings.
thanks,
andrew

Defaults - Foundation - Sill plates are already set to pressure treated.

Ok, I must have missed that the plate is set to treated and I got how to change the deck material. It just would be nice to be able to make a change in defaults to change the material of the sill plates in the defaults, since they are generally PT and could look like PT in a rendering (other then changing each piece at at time).
thanks,

By default (Foundation Defaults), sill plates are treated & "green". So, I'm not quite sure what you're asking?
Thanks, Jim
