That's a display issue.

You may well find that a REGEN will solve the apparent issue.

You may also want to turn off hardware acceleration through your options.

Do your porch as a separate roof entity.

Use the GABLE command-line switch to tell it which bits you want to be gables.

For example, if you only wanted it to slope in one direction your...

I thought a bidet replaced the paper, rather than the toilet?

My understanding is that one does... one's business sat on the toilet, then sits on the bidet to clean up?

Suga,

The best way to create custom doors and windows in ACA (autoCAD Architecture) is to create new styles: Essentially you're creating new "stock" doors and windows.

To do this first...

It sounds like your drawing was drawn in inches with the unit set to millimeters (this sort of thing is frightfully common. My own firm does it as a matter of policy).

When you then converted...

Assuming you've got a sloping top-line (even if this is just a construction line) you might want to look into EXTEND with FENCE as your selection type when you pick the objects to extend.

if the...

If all the objects have to be live in your drawing you could lock the layers and use LAYLOCKFADECTL to fade them, but using them as an xref if by far the best way to go...

But unfortunately the "@" option does seem to work on the command line since the same time :(

It's *probably* a display thing, rather than an itnot working thing.

Try a regen to see if that improves it (display of circles in AutoCAD can be funny sometimes!)

Set it up as an xref system:

Crate a new drawing and use your xref manager to attach the drawing you've received into it. Freezing or thawing the layer the xref is on will freeze or thaw...

Another thing to check for is whether it's on a locked layer or not.

Can you select it? Are you getting any sort of error message?

The ATTACH command combines the two, so a single command can attach both images and PDFs.

Since this is happening in paperspace but not modelspace it sounds likely that you paperspace has gotten set to display colours according to your plot styles.

Type PAGESETUP then click "modify."...

Drevans, Did that fix it?

Perhaps not in a way the OP could parse?

The principal is that rather than testing for a response mid command, the function asks for the point and checks it *before* starting with the move...

While in principal a "total" model like this is a laudable goal in reality it's far too top heavy.

You suggest modelling a single masonry block and placing lots of these as they would be...

My firm does plannig applications for several of the major housebuilders in the UK and quoins, both on the corners of walls and around windows, are one of the features we sometimes use to decorate...

Remark: He bought the file with the base mapping from Ordnance Survey (OS) who provide mapping in the UK, so he probably didn't have a choice about which template to use.

Yes. I still use that method in AutoCAD when I'm working in 2D - I even use a variant where I use a line at another angle if I have a cranked/angled unit.
