Post the plan

You can't build rooms on an Attic floor. You need to create another floor to build rooms. I think the errant walls showing through is caused by the wall definitions. Check your wall definitions - particularly the Main Layer/Exterior Layer settings.

Have a look in the help file. This has already been explained in several of the above posts.

Probably better to post the plan and ask the question here.

DBCooper didn't explain how, so..... It is very quick and easy. Once you have your solid cylinder you can use Fillet Lines and then Fillet Edges (on the Edit toolbar) to radius the edges (top and/or bottom).

I would be extremely surprised if there is a behaviour difference between HD and Chief. Are any of your walls (including invisible walls) marked as No Room Definition in the Wall Specification dbx?

It sounds to me like you may have used Rotate Plan View which really doesn't rotate the plan - it rotates the drawing sheet. This may have some unintended and unwanted results like rotating the coordinate system and snap and reference grids. Have a look in the help file.

1) Use an End To End dimension which will only give you one dimension string. 2) Point To Point dimensions place a point (if it doesn't snap to something else) and then attach the dimension to the point. To move the dimension, you need to move the point and the dimension will follow

Select the cad filled box and then shift select it again, convert to block and save to library.

Chopsaw, We can already do this .......and then save it as part of a default set. This is just a filled polygon, saved to the library and used as an arrow. This then means that it is the default for each arrow drawn.

Yeah, I didn't say I had the answer. I was just throwing some crumbs out there.

Does this happen when you change room types - specifically an Unspecified room type? Just a wild guess, but have you played around with Preferences>Architectural>Rooms>Enable Show Room Label Automatic Behavior When Changing Room Types? This is a setting that can control the display of room names under certain conditions. But the problems described above in the various posts are not 100% consistent with this setting.

You should be able to do the wall junctions using the Curved Wall tool. The widow reveals have been discussed in detail over the years - try refining your search criterion.

You are adding unnecessary steps. Make sure both objects have the same properties - weight, color, linestyle, layer. Select the arc, click on the E or S of the arc, click on the polyline. The polyline and the arc should join to form an enclosed polyline. Done. Easy!

Here:

OK The arc and the poyline have different properties - I think just line weight. You need to make them have the same properties. Then select the arc, click on the S - start of line and then click on the plot plan polyline. They should join together.

No need to convert to a polyline. You are complicating this way beyond what is needed.

Post the plan with a concise explanation of what you want.

Why not select the angled property line (the arc chord) and use Change Line/Arc. Or you could use boolean Union. There are probably several others but either of the above should get you put of trouble.

See also Preferences>CAD>CAD Blocks

Don't forget that you can edit the cad block without exploding by using the Edit Cad Block tool.

Open Preferences>Edit>Behaviors>Primary Movement Method>check Polar. Back in plan view select the window and drag it along the wall. As you drag, have a look at the status bar and note the distance moved and the angle. Keep the drag angle the same as the wall angle. Use TAB and then check the angle - it should be the same as you saw in the status bar.

Make the Room Type "Open Below". Or uncheck "Floor Under This Room"

This may help to get you on your way:

My best guess would be that you have at least one of the walls designated as No Room Definition. Select all the deck railing walls and open the dbx. General panel>Options>No Room Definition.
