Yea right. I think I had the same problem a long time ago. You can drag them offscreen....

OK tried re-connecting the third monitor, reset side windows and re-boot in combo. Now all working again and thanks to you all for your kind assistance.

Hi Eric, Already tried that and reset toolbars. Nothing. Sean

Hi All, I have library browser and tool palette but project browser and layer display toolbars are gone. They are turned on. I was trying third monitor and I think they are 'offscreen' somewhere. Anyone recall how to track them down? X13 23.1.0.38x64

Here's a real example in action. French door, inward opening. I want sidelights to be say 2" back from front of brickwork and inward opening doors aligned with the glass. This is very common over here in apartment buildings with Juliette balconies. The attached is a mulled unit, I have full control over window placement but not doors so I get a real messy result. Also, my sills don't show up. Any thoughts?

Dear Members, Can anyone tell me how I move an inward opening door to the outside face of a building with a single wall layer? Thx Sean

Thank-you Michael, works perfectly.

Thank-you so much all. Wow, so many helpful people on this forum, really cool!

Seems like. I need SSD I think!

I do. Mine snaps all over the place (except to the line). What do I need to do?

Hi Members, Excuse me if this is an old problem (or a problem of my making). This window is not in the same position in the three views. In section / 3D chief is closing the brick wall (as it should be) tight against the window, in plan view it doesn't and there is a gap between window and brick wall. I had a design that required windows to be right at the end of the wall as allowed in X8 now and I noticed the difference.

Thank-you Joe, I usually only use Chief to produce simple appraisal layouts before buying my sites then my architects produce the remainder of the scheme, usually on Revit (which I think is impossible to use, the say 'Chief what?'). Once every year or five as time allows I produce a scheme myself and run into a load of problems (no great surprise). I'm going to air all of my recent problems (and past ones) and then hopefully stay involved and up to date. Noted regarding clearing out the unwanted items. My last file was 120MB and boy was it slow until I had a clean out. Why does Chief write to disk every time I edit something? BR Sean

Here's an example attached. Lets say the junction between thick cavity type wall and thin (yellow) wall should be where the line is drawn. Try moving the wall junction without deleting or moving the window.

Thanks All, much appreciated. The 18.3 update fixes the problem. The symbol approach looks even better.
