I did after you pointed it out thanks, also there 2 coming webinars about framing one is hinting at roof purlins and the other is hinting at horizontal wall framing like multiple rows of noggins as that dialog shows

I am pretty sure i have seen chief reply on forum with this question and they said upgrades are done manualy so my guess would be after weekend

this is what i set it to you may need to further adjust 1893632772_MuhsExistingMark Try.plan

Have a look at the attached plan i think it is what you are wanting Your where on the right track, what i did was copy the terrain and elevations to your plan then i had to convert the terrain perimeter from a poly line to a terrain then i scaled it by 12 transform replicate tool then you just need set the height of the terrain to match your sea levels open terrain and set subfloor height above terrain 1893632772_MuhsExistingMark Try.plan

I played with this problem I got it working in very manual way i remove railing settings and room definition and draw post and beams manually to get it working, also edited the wall to shape of railings manually and drew a floor slab manually this might be a way out of this problem Harco1.plan

Have you had any luck getting this file to work did you submit it to chief support I would be interested in the outcome I got it to work better but the one thing I could not fix is the peace of wall coming out at the corner of hand rail

I had a go at it but could not see what was causing it that section of wall that seems like a post seems to have a mind of its own plus that strange beam I got the ceiling working but it still has wall problems

A bit more info

Made some improvements to your file i change the color of your terrain data layer to make it stand out it can really help to trouble shoot what is going on when having problems and did a bit more general clean up 914751603_Conceptplan Mark.plan

see if that file is helpful its a guess so could be wrong and it needs more work 914751603_Conceptplan.plan

have a look at this file i fixed a few issues with curved walls auto built roof except front porch it is a manual roof also alter roof overhang and curve wall segment roof to 14 deg as Glen spotted and i think it looks a lot cleaner CHF_Christian 117 Lakeview Drive_08-10-20_AS-BUILT Mark.plan

Try doing a auto roof there some strange things happening in this model the top story builds the roof to a point and stops all the way around it might give you clue

I would ask tech support on this one as I thing the program has hit a situation it can not handle

Thanks for all your helpful input it seems to me that did not go all the way with the coding of the software on the metric side of things

Trying to get cabinets to how they are made in Australia its what i think is known as euro style around the world or frameless Toe kick shown in picture below Also would like cabinet box to be different like in below picture its is set to frameless but chief is still adding a frame to the front of the cabinet or have i got a setting wrong Cabinet issues.plan

If you use a room molding set to the height rafter gap and a negative offset to its thickness it will fill the rafter space on the exterior walls also paint it with wall material for the interior not a perfect way but bay be usefull

I had a try at setting foundation heights first i set the foundation defaults to suit the new work then made sure they were set to defaults in the rooms then i manualy set the existing to the different heights it always good to get the defaults correct for the main part of your building with the fire place those walls are set to railings untick railing and use shelf ceiling as david point to in video also x12 can now select doorway with no casings that is one of x12 new features Waltner Addition 2020 Updated.plan

Could you cheat and put a poly line solid over the top so you elevation looks correct

open the exterior wall it sits on, under roof tab un tick upper pitch you must have selected it and forgot

Here is a file it maybe what you are trying to achieve it is in X7 Pool House v4.plan

What version of chief are you running I played with the file but it seems like it is very old version

Here is a link to the file https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-2PrXmIBT6R9GQVJBMSIJpYegCPcdjZa you will see i just put elevation region set to zero to flatten the terrain under the building

is this what you want

Could you put the file on drop box or google drive and share a link
