I just have to chime in here. Homes have been built for hundreds of years from hand drawn plans. Plans are now digitally printed and it appears the "ones" are too close together? It's just plain "common sense" for the framer - look at the tape measure, is it 12' 1 1/4" or 12' 11 1/4"? If a framer can't read a plan that says 12' 1 1/4", either train the framer to understand what he should already know or get a framer who can read the plan. If you want to cater to his elementary school needs, just set the plan dimensions to have no fractions at all. Dang, I am totally amazed how pyramids were built to their preciseness and we are discussing "ones" being too close! Just my 2 cents...

Forcing Chief Architect Programs to Use a Specific Graphics Card in Windows 10

Just one example, all drawn with Chief. Many, many capabilities of CAD. Polylines, lines, circles, etc. I have concluded long ago that whatever I can draw on paper, I'd rather draw it in with CA.... Radius_Corners_01.plan

Do you have the same issue when you test it on your end? Maybe you could post a link?

Unless I am missing something, I suspect this will not work in versions previous to X12?

OR.... pertaining to house prices - what is the price per ft²?

In Saved Text Styles, edit the Room Label Style. Of course, you could copy it first and tweak it for your current project and revert back anytime.

Foundation-Slab on Grade with brick ledge

Hint... In Wall Types, define the wall and set your brick ledge height there. -

Highlight the text THEN change the text to the height you desire.

That's awesome! Oh, the power of CA!

Try placing a marker on layout page zero and then you can point to point move anything to that marker.

Thanks guys! This method meets my needs well. And yes, I always consult with an engineer for any concerns. Thanks again.

Ok, Thanks!

Am I missing something about intersecting wall doorways? Framing seems to be ok, but I still have something in the doorway in 3D view. Thank you. Untitled 1.pdf Untitled 1.plan

Living Area Square feet notation disappears.

Known issue - this will correct it... Tools, Checks, Plan Check -
Ok, I started CA and selected New Plan, drew the same walls, built the foundation and all's good. But being that I like to see what caused this, I opened the problem plan file, did an Edit Area (all floors) and pasted into the new plan and did another cross section and it too has the same issue. I need to get going on this plan so I may not know what caused this. Thank you all for your replies!!!

Wow! How can I be sure I've deleted all of the Auto Detail polylines? Please see the camera view too, it shows the brick not on the lowered brick ledge depth.
