Gene, if open the sample plan, look in the CAD details and you will find that flashing.

We are adding the ability to move newel posts in X16 (due out in late Q2). They can be repositioned with in the railing using a new move tool found in the edit toolbar or by clicking on the newel and pressing the tab key. Here’s a brief video.

The private beta is in process and will be opening to more people. We'll post a new thread soon on the specifics. You can request to be on the list by sending an email to beta@ chiefarchitect.com

Rachel, if plot lines and changing the layer weights is not working for you, perhaps call in to our tech dept and see if they can help.

Rachel, are you sending your views to layout as 'live views' or 'plot lines'? Live Views are fast and look 'okay' and can be used for watercolor and other styles. Plot Lines will give a crisper view and you can adjust your line weights by layer.

It should not matter which floor the terrain is on. To remove the terrain below those decks, you use a terrain hole as noted by Mark. If that does not work, perhaps sketch a picture of what you are after.

Lane, can you post the file?

Sometimes at 3-way wall intersections, the wall layers compete. The ‘edit wall layer intersections’ tool or marking one of the exterior walls as ‘through at end or start’ can fix it – not always. In this case, you can use a wall type of ‘partition’ for your invisible wall; it does not cut the layers of opposing walls (like glass shower walls). I made a copy of your “Lean to Wall”, marked it as a partition, and it looks to work. Try it out.

For your center room area, raise the ceiling height slightly, say 1/4" it will force the auto roof to build higher like your image; and increase the pitch on the side walls. I did notice some of the exterior walls had a few odd settings, so I disconnected and rejoined them for the roof build.

Jim, I see this is solved by a few others already. Just highlighting what has been said:
-never overlap terrain elevation data – especially if it differs in elevation
-avoid using elevation points – as possible
-your 3D solids for walls worked well; you might consider using the terrain wall tool; it will break terrain for you. You may need to shape it in an elevation view
-in the attached image, you can see that by moving the walls out of the way, deleting your 120” elevation lines, removing the elevation overlap, the contours should be about what you are expecting.
BTW – we will have a live Terrain webinar Jan. 11, 2024.

Gene, can you post the plan?
