Issues with Timber Framing Extension Shop Drawings

Extensions
1

I’ve used the Timber Framing extension many times and this is the first time I’ve had this issue.

The camera view is wrong in the new shop drawing file. I tried cycling through the standard camera views, but I am always viewing the timber at an angle, and not directly on the face. The only way I am able to get the camera view correct is manually orbiting and panning, which isn’t a sustainable method with many members.

Perhaps related to the new update?

Anybody else having issues with this, or is there something I’m not doing right?

@daiku ?

Camera (menu) > Parallel Projection

You can also right-click on any face (at any orientation) and choose Align View context command.

You could check that your axis isnt changed. This will give you that result.

Email your model to me, and I’ll take a look. Let me know which timber is giving you problems.

Right, I forgot about the Align View command. That will help for now, and hopefully find the issue to correct things automatically going forward.

Cheers!

Thanks for the tip! I went back and checked, and it does appear that the axes are appropriate. Perhaps not perfect, but aligned with an edge, which should in theory give the proper view in the shop drawings me thinks.

My apologies, I’m quite new to this forum/platform and I haven’t seen an email address for you. Can you let me know how to go about that, I’d be thrilled if you could have a look at it for me! Try not to pay too close attention to how terrible my model is ahaha.
