  13. If i understand correctly, change setting shown in screen shot then rebuild foundation if i am wrong show me what you need in screen shot
  14. Its all good don't worry but it still has a problem it must have been open in chief as the plan file has zero bytes size or maybe you attached the same file
  15. I think you had the file open in chief when you zipped it, as the file has 1 Kb make sure you don't have it open in chief when compressing it, also it may end up being bigger than 14mb after zipping it so you may have to put it on google drive dropbox or other
  16. I think you may have forgot to attach zip file
  17. Project management is on by default in x17 so things look different but depending on what your are doing you might want to turn it of in preference's and go back to save as option
