I have searched from time to time on how to make ceiling joists and floor joists hangers go full depth of the joist.  Is there a way or option for this?

Yes so they show up in section.  I guess those who use material output would need a count by size also.

I use symbols in section. You can get DWGs of the various hangers at Simpson's web site.

I was hoping I was missing something.  It would be great to check a box by the Joist Hanger option to designate/draw full depth hanger.

My joist hangers seem to be all the same size.  If you have a 2x8 or 2x10 or a floor joist they are all way short.  The length does not even pass code.  What I need is an option to make the output for sections or elevations to be full depth.  I have to adjust that is time comsuming.
