Additionally, there are multiple objects present, such as another circle and dotted lines. I shifted the circle over and then connected the dimension to it.

use end to end dimensions as point to point snaps to its own marker not to objects its so you can place a dimension anywhere

Explode the block and remove the dimension labeled '225' that's using a marker. I believe you should use the point-to-point dimension tool instead of the end-to-end dimension tool.

also i notice that a dimension is connected to a marker

I'm uncertain about what you're attempting to do, but is it's blocked, perhaps a screenshot with a note explaining your intention might help.

Upon reflection, it is correct to say that the chief will only attempt to shift it and not alter its size.

I am not a expert with this stuff, but delete your dimension and see if auto shown dimensions will work

Clicking on the dimension that displays an object's size does not reveal the move type selectors; however, clicking on the dimension that extends to another object will display the handles.

Do you use these options as shown in image

Do you have photo examples

try zip or compress the file see if that gets it below 14meg right click the file compress to zip file

see if that helps there is still some problems with stairs RichardFloorPlan.zip

See if that is what you are try to do 1432567310_davidNixonplan1.plan

that worked

When i try to download i get a message unavailable, you try to download its, like something has happen when you uploaded the file not sure.

Up load your plan I am sure someone can get you going in the right direction

Give this file a go its a bit rough I think it will be good enough i drew over the pdf in a app concepts with apple pencil then exported it to dxf you just need to import scale it and give the lines elevation heights elevations.dxf

I if you do trace the contours I would try tracing every second major contour and see if that works often less is best you can always add

Sorry i should have looked at your pdf those dashed lines are the problem i am trying a convert on my end just to see what happens

when importing try Selecting Convert lines with shared endpoints into polylines

PDF to cad there a app for iOS and probily android then just import the outputed cad file and import to chief then give the elevation lines there correct height

Try putting it in windows 7 compatibility mode from shortcut menu maybe

I think you will need a usb key as shown and by memory you will need drivers for the key plus you may need to put it in windows 7 compatibility mode from its short cut settings

I had a play with your file i made some changes I put a roof hole in the large roof plain front and rear gables facia heights on large roof plains i made sub facia 15" and eave facia 16" also turned on boxed eaves I put a molding for deck facia I made stair floor open below See if that is what you can use, I think the roof pitch should be stepper like 12 in 12 from looking at your photos 1996198547_WendelOPHouseAsBuilt.plan

From looking at your plan and photos it seems like you are on the right track, was there something in particular that you would like to improve on
