Im in the Bay Area, feel free to contact me:

What exactly are you trying to achieve? You can do all of what you are asking but using the CAD tools and converting your cad to Terrain features/Roads/Driveways

We can already import and export 3d. If you are refering to importing something that then works within chiefs native parametric modal modeling...then I would guess "likely never." I wouldn't mind the ability to manipulate vertices though. But at that point, why not just use blender which is free. Do you have an example of what you are proposing it do?

dae is a collada file which blender can open...and oh man I would be weary about offering that service. Chiefs cabinets are not properly UV mapped and have no flexibility in panel thickness as well as some other things.

Blender is free and a more acceptable world wide modeling standard, export to dae and then import export to your obj. any particular reason you need it as an obj?

Post your .plan file please

I would hope they put a concave flashing.. that membrane heats and cools enough times it’ll break on a hard turn with no backing IMO

Hey Scott, Probably put a lot more flashing details in unless youre handling this in a separate detail which I would reference. If not balooning through then would fasten the parapet wall to your decking and interrupt the insulationl Only thing holding your parapet wall is the sheething(presumably) See detail below I just drew up. Flashed cap overlaps wedge and exterior surfaces. Flash the parapet wall and lap over your exterior flashing(Under your exterior surface) as well as interior parapet flashing. Flashing at interior of parapet wall overlaps cant(if cant is necessary). Would stiffen that parapet wall up with double top plate. Like others said, no need for parapet insulation.

Narrow Ramp with a Solid Railing

This is included in the Kitchen Tools package but it is in the library, not on the toolbar itself

Just an update

Put that same custom field value in your label

should really just be the block layer in the main layer, the rest should go to exterior or interior layers

Ditto

is that a section of wall or is that a backsplash? share a video or 3d view or plan file please

post your plan? are you in the Beta users?

I am curious as to why you are needing to reference the layers at all? set it and forget it? Alternatively, just label the layers you need with a prefix and then put that prefix in the search bar..there is your filtered results

totally scene dependent and can be from a great number of different reasons. Do you have a roof on the building, what direction is your sun, do you have enough lights in the scene? plenty more questions to be asked as well..are you using a backdrop.

Terrain Retaining Wall Tool

See photo...can we do this with out current window dbx options? Not in front of computer to try it out

231017 (3).mp4

this is all within my pro plan template which I sell. It does auto labeling of the box itself and also does the schedule detail. Utilizes some macros that I created. It integrates with the Kitchen Tools that I sell as well. Someone here might offer up their own code for that for free if you post it in a thread

Don't know about that..kindve doubt it

Just curious why you would be using such a scale ? Why not draw your dimensions manually for that view...assuming it is a site plan. Otherwise use match lines at a lower scale
