Re: Underground Construction

Thanks all for the responses. It may seem silly but It really helps focus what I am trying to achieve. Will get back further as I move on but you are right even though it is underground we do have walls and arched roofs to consider and the connections will all be done in reinforced concrete so my or...

Both files are saved on USB drive but on closing the drawer front file they disappear from the main file. I had expected them to still be visible. Am I doi...

Re: Arch Roof and Arch array additional parameters

Thanks again Roy for the tips array on the line worked nicely and I achieved results quickly. This will be really useful going forward.

Re: Arch Roof and Arch array additional parameters

Thanks Roy for taking the time to answer.

Or am I being fanciful. roofend.jpg ...

Re: Changed something and unable to proceed

I click on the structure to highlight and it goes straight to edit. Have I changed anything in mpreferences - didn't think so! Is it maybe time to re-inst...
