Ok...I want to draw a parallel line at the top point of the arc see png. and draw it parallel to the lower assisting geometry line. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Hi Jason,

Nice approach ....pretty cool! Thanks for the help!

Hi Der_ Planer,

How do I get a point thats perpendicular to the point thats currently in the plane of the two contact surfaces? Let say 4" into the tie beam so I can do a point to point drilling.

Thanks!

Kayaker

I did a drilling for two lag bolts using any contact surface but now need the drillings to appear at the geometry points. :?

Kayaker

Thanks for helpful Tips.

I have two points not on the same line but need the dimension line parallel to the top chord. Please advise.

Jason,

Thanks, very.... helpful!

Hi Jason,

With all templates set at 0.000 everything is fine. I thought I would be able to create a template from the get go, at a 1:0 scale but I guess that doesn't work. This template would be used for full scale drawings being sent to a CNC machine.

Thanks!

Hi Der_Planer,

I tried sending a single beam drawing to the template but received the error message. I did get a wall drawing with another template, and was able to open up a drawing storage and insert it into the template set at 1:0. It appears you cannot start off with a template having a viewport with a 1:0 scale and send drawings to it.

Thanks!

Hi Der_Planer,

The template has a viewport with a 1:0 scale. I'm able to zoom one viewport and verify the scale in properties. I even changed the viewport scale and still receive the same message. If I change the viewport scale to 0.000 I do not receive the message and in D-Cad the drawing sizes it self to fit the template. My question is, is it possible to have a template with a 1:0 scale and send drawings to it?

I 'm doing a wall drawing I then receive a message that the template does not have any viewports available. I checked my template and it does have a view port. Why would I receive this message?

Jason and Der_Planer,

Thank you for the help it will come in handy because everyone is throwing curves at me!

Kayaker

Hi Der_Planer,

In the wall design, I need to do the same as in PlanCad. Thanks for the help!

What is the best way to draw an arc knowing both end points and the radius? See attachment.

Thanks!

Kayaker

Yippee ! It worked great Jason you just earned a Blue Moon.

Thanks!

Kayaker

I'm trying to cut the web to meet the arch does anyone have a tip on how to accomplish this.

Hey! Der_Planer,

What other kind of work yard work, wash the car, wash the dog? Maybe we can get some guy's togeather and help.

Der_Planer

Please write a book about the secrets deep within Dietrich's software program you seem to know many! I won't have to be sold I'll buy (must be in english) Thanks for sharing your example!

Kayaker

Thanks Jason !

Hi Der_Planer,

Thanks for the help but now I need to get the laminations to run parallel to the length of the beam. Please see attachment. Is this possible?

Thanks!
