  1. Eric_S's post in Sending plan to layout on X17 -- how to select already-saved layout? was marked as the answer   
    In the Project Browser, right click the project for the plan you are sending, and click "Import File(s)" to import your layouts. Then, they should be available in the dropdown.

    That's alright, I think I understand your situation. You have shutters applied to the mulled unit itself.
     
    A workaround might be to use "Convert to Symbol" on the mulled unit - convert it to a Millwork symbol and add it to the library. Then, place it in a plan, and use 3D -> "Delete Surface" to remove everything except one of the shutters. Then, use "Convert to Symbol" again on the result. You have to use "Convert to Symbol" and not just "Add to Library" to preserve your edits, as far as I can tell.

    This is clearer when you select the layout box:

    The catalog's ID does not match what is on our server. The catalog contents themselves may be perfectly fine, but it won't receive updates until you delete this catalog and re-download (from the 3D Library, or from within Chief).
