Make your drywall thickness on the abutting walls match at either 5/8 or 1/2 and then snap that interior wall to the exterior corner at the correct location.

Larry, I am not that far away. You know I will come down there with my dogs and leave a present on your lawn if you are printing directly from the plan file....

Are you printing from Plan or Layout?

Mick, you will need to delete the current pin to task bar and reassign the one with the updated icon.

Now I am more confused. 1. What is your goal? 2. Can you post an image of what you are getting vs. what you want? 3. Are you looking for a colored design image of your floor plan?

You might want to post this in the general questions area. It tends to get a lot more looks. You will also be more likely to get a wider perspective.

1. Are you sending to layout or printing from the plan file? 2. Yes, that is the way Vector will work. Only B&W.

Da, Da, Da, Da, Dude..... That is a great trick.

This looks like a great opportunity. Completely misspelled his name "Lstiburek" https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/7920786473092877058

It will start working the next time you restart.

Can you find your user library through your computer file system? If so, reload the library. Library ---> Import Library

I generally do it in 3d to get the nice look.

Semper Gumbi.

I know of no schools that use Chief for their CADD software. With that said, are you hiring for drafting or design and drafting. Very different in my mind. If you find a young grad with a tight portfolio it will be easy to get someone trained on whatever CADD software you are using. A young person with good computer knowledge can pick up a new software package quickly as they are less likely to fight the tools (that are not in CA but they are used to from ACAD). I actually would like to start an education program so I can develop drafting help but I think my local area is a bit too small.

I tend to run both x6 and x7 beta simultaneously, although I am almost completely out of x6, I don't like to be confused by the task bar icon so I made this icon to replace x7. I like it. seven_icon.ico

I did send in a ticket. You may have grabbed the file that I uploaded that had cleared the issue. Also, I had made a polyline fix and I can't remember if that second file had it moved away. I did send it in to support but no word back yet.

I am always printing to pdf. It appears a small amount of the text is jumping from the plan on the left to the print area.

I am getting a strange result with this plan/layout. See the image trail. 1. screen shot in layout 2. screen shot in print preview 3. print result https://www.dropbox.com/s/ipi8kpsmc8r5d21/bu%20glick.zip?dl=0 edit --Just updated the drop box file. I had cleaned a bunch of extraneous files out of the layout which cleared the issue but that is still not good since I generally need those other files to live in the layout.

Uncheck the box circled

The contractor for this project (rightly so) said that he was confused by the elevations due to the building having skewed wings on each side. Not any more since I was able to fade out the skewed portion of the elevations with our new semi transparent fills. The fill on these uses a white fill with 40% transparency. El Fade.pdf

@Rashid, you just saved me a ton of time. Check out the next two images. I only traced the critical area. The bulk of the elevation just gets a large cover. See the temp blue line for a point of reference. In the plan file Then in layout

Even better with a White Fill.

Yes. It was a little tedious but a lot easier than cutting out peel and stick tone sheets on mylar.

Do you have more than one copy of the finish schedule in the plan file? It is all guesses without a plan file on most questions. Post you plan, win a prize.

Work in progress on elevations for a project where the plan has skewed wings.
