Ha, ha :lol: well besides of wood houses that website represent another of my interests. I don't yet have a website of my own and recently I have retired from the team at this website about dvd-recorders etc.

But yes - maybe I should have a website of my own where I can share my interest in wooden houses. But I don't know how to make such a website and with what provider. It should be free or at least very cheap - and it should be easy to create a nice website.

OK - I have to do the shoulders 2 times, and second time I can choose the line of the beam that goes through the posts.

First of all it was the double beams I made different lenght.

Secondly it doesn't work what you suggested - maybe because when I select the receiving beams I don't select both even I use "collect" and make a window around the beams. I did what you said (I already tried that before) and here is the result (see picture).

Ok - it seems to be a tuff question this one, since there are no answers yet. I found a possible solution - but it does not work automatically when I put in posts. I make the one beam 1 mm longer in each end. Then it works when I put "group shoulders" manually and select the one beam where the shoulders are not done.

Ok - excellent! It can be useful, because I made a project with the same number as an old project staying on the receivers computer - that could cause some problems...

And the last picture - I hope you can help me.

If I delete pictures in the upload center - will they still be visible in the old messages?

Well here they come - the pictures.

You mean create new project and then copy and paste the positions into it? But then what about the position numbers - will they change?

Is it possible to change the project number?

I will try to upload againg, because I think not that I have already used my quota.

Eiij what to do about that: "Sorry, you have reached your maximum Upload Quota Limit of 512 KB"

Hello!

When I put posts in my walls I use shoulder as connection to top- and bottom plates etc. But over windows and doors I have to beams - and here the shoulder is done in only the one beam but not at the other one. First I had only cut off the posts when they meet the two beams, but that is not what we want to do. At picture 3 you can see at the nearest beam what we want - but at the other beam this is not done.

I have tried almost everything - lap joint, end lap joints etc., but nothing seems to give the wanted result. Of course I would like an easy and fast way to do it, because I have many that I am going to change. And of course I would like also a method that works automatically when I put in posts.

Eiij, I cannot upload the pictures!!?? Do you understand what I meam without the pictures??

Excellent!! :lol: I am going to be happy for that feature!!!

Hello!

Example: I am drawing a house, walls etc. Another person is going to work on same project, drawing a staircase house. In this case the problem is that the roof surfaces of the main house I am drawing is connected to the roof surface of the staircase house, that another person (if possible) is going to draw. If the roof surfaces was not connected I would suggest that he just draw the staircase house in a independent project.

But can I send my project to him, let him draw the staircase house on my project at the same time as I continue to finish the main house - and then later we can combine his work and my work in one single project???

Or can he draw the walls for the staircase house in another project, and then afterwards we can combine his project and my project or at least copy his work into my project???

Do you understand what I mean??

Ok, I see the function "wall macros" - but how to use it??

Hello!

Is it possible to copy timbers from one wall to several equal walls???

Ok, very nice, it seems to work now.

Eiii, ei - no I did not. But I think it is easy to attach that information to the beams at this moment, wall for wall? Can it be done all at once, maybe in D-Cam?

Hmmm :cry: See here my settings and my result. What is wrong?

I have tried and tried an tried - but my wall drawing don't dimension the timber spacings in the wall.

Further more I made a nice drawing template - but it works only with scale 1:100 - can I change that template so that this will be "choice" or make a copy of the template and set the scale to 1:20 for wall drawings?

Hello! Ok, I understand now - it works very well! Thank's!!
