Acer, can you point me to where to learn how to manually build the eaves?

I don't know if I should be happy to sad that this is not just me - happy I'm not an idiot and can't figure it out - sad because there is no easy fix for it. Ugh....

Yes, I had tried removing the exterior casing of the storm door but keeping it for the main door, thinking that the doubling up of it was the reason it was cutting back/recessed. Knew if I came to this group they would have an answer for me quicker than I could find it!

This did the trick! Thank you! Knew it would be something easy. Any idea why?

Hello C.A. Network! I have added two doors to the same opening to provide a storm door. The exterior casing of the storm door is cutting into the siding and showing the sheathing. I tried messing with a few settings, no luck. Flemming_Exterior_Bid Docs.zip

I finally had time to circle back to this issue. The article that Renerabbit provided had the answer! Thank you! It is as simple as adding a Living Area macro text box. Thank you to everyone who took time to help look into this issue for me! Best, Anna

Hello, I would like to change the name of the molding profile extrusions library items so that the room schedule can be accurately read by our trades people and suppliers. I can't seem to find how to do this,nor am I able to right-click and rename from the library browser. I'd assume there would be a way to do this... Thank you for your time and assistance, Anna

I spoke too soon, I"m still having issues. I deleted my foundation, build new blank foundation plan and copied in place your plan. I now have the LIVING AREA label, but no area total. It must be a weird setting I have in my plans.... Also, I initially had one wall for my foundation furred out walls, but that had issues when in 3D views. Anyhow...I'll have to circle back to this later, or try the having the foundation on level 1. Thanks, Anna

Thank you everyone! While you all had good ideas to verify, looks like this was the trick. I just recently started using furred walls, which is about when I started having this living area problem. I didn't connect the two. Thank you very much for all of your input and work! Anna

Hello, My Living Area for the entire floor is not showing for level 0, nor will the Plan Check bring it back. Any ideas? Rhode Island_CD Set.zip

Got it - thank you!

Mick, I am having this same issue. When I go through your steps, X10 does not show up. Any ideas? Thank you,

Eric, I seem to have continuous problems with my walls and roof planes. I've viewed a few different roof tutorials. I have no idea why the wall issues. There is something I am not understanding. Are their any training videos you'd recommend, something that goes into a little more detail about how the program works and wants things set up to function properly? If not, no worries.

David, Looks like that will do the trick. Thank you!

Hello everyone, This is an old file. We did a few designs for them about 1.5 years ago, and now they came back for a downsized scope. I was new to Chief when we started this project. So not sure if their is a setting that is messing this up or what. In elevation view, the fireplaces does not show (E10). It is on a layer I have set as active. I've tried changing the walls to No Room Definition or No Locate. The No Room Definition helps in that the fireplace is then visible in the Elevation View. However, the rest of the walls are messed up. Attached is file and photos. Coulter_Addition & Garage_DD.zip
