Delete your foundation. Rebuild it later.

"Curved Roof Planes" in help.

OR, just delete all that you do not want by holding the delete key down, take a screen shot, then hit cancel to void the deletions. Charles

In most parts, you can only get precut studs for 8, 9 & 10' ceilings.
-
BTW, the rough ceiling elevation should be 121 1/8" in order to use pre-cut studs, double top plate and a single bottom plate like usual.

Howdy Brent, You are showing rough ceiling elevation in the first pict and finish ceiling elevation in the second pict. Charles

I thought David Potter helped with that is his video. Did you watch that?

Your edge rafter (in red) is 11 1/4" instead of 9 1/4" like the rest. Change that to match.

Help needed to add drywall to wall ends
CharlesVolz replied to MovingandShaking's topic in General Q & A
This problem is usually caused by one or two things: 1. The exterior wall layer is setup as a main layer in the wall definition instead of an exterior or interior layer. 2. The framing wall layer is not marked as framing. -

Howdy Larry, Yes, it works for me. Check that your tray ceiling layer is not locked... Sorry if I misunderstood your earlier post. Best, Charles -
You are welcome! Other considerations may be: lack of rain screen or a moisture barrier on exterior of exterior wall lack of air spacing or furring on interior of exterior wall using CMU at 8 inches instead of 7 5/8 inches

Your wall layers are not set up correctly.

What is better for clients using Chief viewer first time?

Perspective Floor Overview. -
I turned off all auto framing and that helped speed up one plan in X14 and X13 (same plan).

In addition, you probably need to extend the lower roof plane backwards or break the upper roof plan and bring it forward, depending on where you want the attic wall.

Thx for sharing! Best, Charles

Not just you. Did put this in suggestions? If, not please do. I will also.

Anybody used a QR on a con doc to link to Chief's 3D Viewer?
CharlesVolz replied to GeneDavis's topic in General Q & A
I add a hyperlink in Adobe with a text that says ± "SEE 3D MODEL HERE". -
Stair rake wall won't connect to balcony wall

No paint layer there! Just 1/2" drywall. -
Stair rake wall won't connect to balcony wall
CharlesVolz replied to Bob_Johnston's topic in General Q & A
Extend the railing wall a couple of inches. Make sure you are on Floor 2 and have the correct wall. Now someone make the drywall wrap properly... -
From a recent post: Curved Trusses: 1. Use CA truss tool to get this curved bottom truss started by using a curved ceiling plane. 2. Use solids in elevation. Solids allow you to have the wood grain longitudinal on each long side and across the ends by copying the material, rotating it and saving it as another material. 3. Use 3D moldings in elevation. The wood grain will be longitudinal on all sides.
