I am not 100% sure of what you are doing. But isn't this one of those situations where you need to have a small horizontal return to join the eave and gable moldings properly. If you can't draw it, you can't build it...or the other way around.

You can also use the Import button in the Toolbar Customisation>Configuration panel to import toolbars.

X5...really?

I have done it in the past using a Terrain and then converting to a symbol Here is a very quick one

It is a Molding Polyline on floor 2 Roofs, Trim layer which is locked.

Uncheck Auto Build Terrain You should see this icon next to the cursor:

As for part 2 of your question. You can use the break tool to break the section line and pull the 2 (or more) sections independently.

Have a look in the help file for Symbol Molding. Instead of extruding a molding along a Molding Polyline, Symbol Moldings are 3D objects that are spaced at intervals along a Molding Polyline. You could also use a Distributed Path.

Try the Polyline Distribution Region and/or one of the other Distributed Objects tools.

Do you have Grid Snaps toggled on?

Have a look down the bottom of the Plan Defaults dbx for Opening Indicators.

It seems to be working in X16 for me.

I would normally just throw an invisible wall across the recess and auto build.

Can you post a plan

Can you be a bit more specific. What tool are you using to align what with what. I am guessing you might be talking about the Angle Snap Grid? But if so, have a look at Preferences>Edit>Snap Properties>Snap Indicators>Display Angle Snap Grid. And Preferences Edit<Behaviors>Primary Movement Method>Polar.

You can use a Molding Polyline with 2 moldings specified with appropriate offsets - one for the shelf and one for the rail.

I think you can do what you want by creating a Plan View with the Poche Walls option checked.

I think you need to post the plan

The short answer is no.

As well as the Heel Height ("off plate distance"), you also need to specify Boxed Eaves.

It's in the wall dbx. Look for Auto Roof Return.

Post the plan

Before delving any further you should clean up your drawing by finding and deleting the objects (a stove, invisible walls, etc) that are way out in the never never. Delete those invisible angled walls in the kitchen if not needed. Toggle on auto roofs. Make any edits as required by using the roof controls and other techniques and watch what happens in a 3D view as you work.

What format are you trying to export to?

Default Settings>Window>Window Defaults>General>Minimum Separation.
