So this came about during a discussion with SP techs about a related issue, I'm curious how others in the SP community handle it, or maybe I'm missing something somewhere!
Starting with the premise that in my wall sections, the face of the structural sheathing in the framed wall above aligns with the face of the foundation wall below -
In SP, my foundation wall section has the outside face of the concrete wall ticked as "bearing". My framed wall section has the outside face of the sheathing ticked as bearing, that way the bearing faces of both walls align as they should.
But, in the roof mode, in the little vignette in the lower left corner of the screen, only the bearing material in the wall section shows - so I get a fairly useless vignette showing the rafter, and only sheathing below, no stud, no plates, no bird's mouth.
The solution is obviously making the stud bearing in the wall definition, not the sheathing. But that's where the problem occurs - when I copy the first floor plan, then convert the walls to foundation walls, the options only allow aligning the bearing materials, or the outside of the wall, not aligning the foundation bearing surface to the "non-bearing" sheathing above.
Does this make sense? What am I missing?
