Molly I deleted the corner cabinet and placed a new base cabinet. Changed the default front of 3 drawers to 1 false drawer front. Then deleted hardware and stretched from left to right then turned into a corner cabinet. It looks like it's working. hth 410366274_CORNERCAB.TOE-working.plan

Welcome to the community, I'm assuming you are using X16. Try 2 doors stacked vertically and mull them together. Add trim if needed with molding line tool in elevation/ cross section view.

Temporary dimensions for Electrical Fixtures
MPDesign replied to Jake_Caufield's topic in General Q & A
Hi Jake, I don't think there is a way to get temp dims to work. Looks like manually placing or auto room interior using electrical dimension defaults. -
I think manual edit the porch, auto roofs are set to the default roof settings.

I would take an elevation camera view, then import the pdf page and then draw over it with the 3d solid tool. Have you looked at the 3d text we have in the library? Maybe the style will work.

Hi Shane, I'm not sure I understand, 2d plan view display doesn't affect the elevation of the column. If you want to edit the column size use the doorway icon on the left of the tool bar. -Procedure for editing the 2d plan view- Place your library column in plan view, select it, then open this icon

Program unusable due to noise since update
MPDesign replied to JanuaryVawter's topic in General Q & A
You mention you just dated to x16, does x15 still work? If not try reinstall chief and then if that fails, I would contact support when they open. I'm just guessing not knowing your machine specs. -
Try editing the 2d cad block of the column first? once you do that and change the size it will adjust the plan view as well.

can you show an example, just a thought you could gap the solids by a 1/16"

Linear Ceiling Surface-Mounted Light Fixtures w/ Wrap Around Lens
MPDesign replied to Buster12's topic in General Q & A
Look at the architectural core catalog, Lighting-Tube Lighting-Surface Mounted-Medium & Wide Then change the object material in the Covering category - from standard glass to Milk-White glass. If you need a frame around it make with a polyline molding tool, and group them together to make a block to copy as needed. -
Extending Floor Platform Beyond Exterior Wall
MPDesign replied to Nigel8159's topic in General Q & A
I would suggest that you use an invisible exterior wall to define the floor space. Then place your roof plane.
