    Did you turn off auto floor framing, if it is, turn it on and use the joist direction tool, it should work. Make sure the deck is not locked also. Under decking turn on auto framing or re-frame it.

    I know Michael (Alaskan_ son) has a nice purple one. Maybe he will put it up again in this thread.

    boy, do I need one of those.
  4. DRAWZILLA
    floor trusses are manually inserted ,so you need to select them all and use transform / replicate to raise or lower them or just delete them ,change the floor height and re-do.

    I used to draw in Softplan switched to Chief 12 years ago and never looked back. Chief is so much easier to learn.

    it does that with every version update during beta and every new version.. no return after that ,so be sure you want to go forward.

    I was just trying to do it automatically, you can just offset the footing in the garage to match the stem wall also automatically., isn't that better then workarounds? There does come a time when you need to shut off auto foundations and manually fix but not in this simple design.
  8. DRAWZILLA
    good thing b/c you really don't need any workarounds anyway for this condition, but there are other conditions that you will need the invisible wall, not sure why you are getting the sill.

    I think anyone would need more time

    I was seeing it in your picture, so I assumed it was not.

    Here is my take on it very simple
  12. DRAWZILLA
    You can just make that stem wall invisible.
  13. DRAWZILLA
    It can be done very easily automatically to late now but will do in the morning, unless Michael's video did it for you. I think what you are talking about is when a slab butts into a raised foundation then it lowers the stem wall down to the slab height.

    Larry, you were ignoring the "Stem wall top (C) section which would be at -18 to give you a 6" stem wall
  15. DRAWZILLA
    No, watch Larry's video above, that's what I do.

    I downloaded the final version with the new key and it doesn't say Beta anymore

    I do know that sometimes Chief won't cut the 2x12 enough so they cut through the ceiling. Been trying to get that fixed for a long time. Hips too.

    I have been using the cad detail of the existing under the remodeled floor plan, so when you remove a wall or window ,it shows from the background automatically , no conflict with this method.

    make sure you are using the drivers for that device and not the generic one Microsoft gives you.

    I wonder if he drew this plan in another version also.

    outside main layer is correct
  22. DRAWZILLA
    I say the outside face
  23. DRAWZILLA
    I put my interior and exterior walls on separate layers in the defaults, so I can turn off interior walls on the reference layer and don't show them. I also draw the reference layer first so the walls cover the reference layer.
  24. DRAWZILLA
    Haven't seen that one and couldn't even do it if I wanted. It's even showing thru walls

    When I downloaded and installed X9, the word Beta is gone, so it might be the final version until the 1st update.
