Did you check every room type?

I have gone through every room type, no "Maple 5 Plank Natural" to be found.

I'm curious if anyone will be able to find where the "Maple 5" Plank-Natural" is being used.  Seems like it might be hard-coded somewhere, maybe for Legacy purposes.  I don't know, just a guess.  I gave up trying to find it.

I am as well. I have gone through many times again and cannot find it. 

Thanks everyone for all of the help! I really appreciate it! Still getting the hang of all of the defaults/depth of everything.

Those all look like materials that would be used in either material defaults, wall type definitions or room type definitions.  Post a copy of that plan though and one of us will take a quick look.

Here's my template plan with the materials in question.

Are you sure that you went through ALL your defaults? For example, did you check all your Room Type definitions?  

Yes, I went through all defaults including Room Type definitions (several times to be sure). The highlighted materials are still a mystery to me. Any insight into something I may be missing is much appreciated!

I have a follow up question. When going through the "in use" materials list, is there a way to see what exactly that material is being used for? I have gone through all defaults and changed everything to what I would like but there are still some mystery materials that I am not sure where they are being used.

Exactly ............  every plan has 30-40 Default (changeable) materials associated with it....

That makes sense, so every default material is then considered "in use" by the plan.

Thank you for the help!

In any new plan I open up from my custom template there is a fairly long list of materials being "used" but the only object in the template is a north arrow. Why does Chief save these as used materials? Is there a way to delete them? 

Thanks for any info on this!

Using X12.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions!  

I just reinstalled my Chief x9 to my larger D drive because my C drive was in danger of filling up.  I can open a drawing and do anything but when I try to close it, I get this error message:  "Attempting to write the Master List File.  Unable to write to the directory "C:\Users\alia\Documents\Chief Architect Premier X9 Data\".  The file cannot be saved."    I am confused because I installed everything on my D drive so why is it wanting to go to the C drive?  And how do I fix it?  Thanks!
