Sounds like you need to customize your toolbars. Here a a couple of Knowledge Base articles that should help: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00467/troubleshooting-missing-toolbars.html https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00811/customizing-toolbars.html

Benny: Rather than using a Back Clipped Cross Section, have you considered trying a Cross Section/Elevation or a Wall Elevation instead? Both of these options will provide more detail. Eric

I'm a bit of a distance from Savannah (Rochester, NY), but I do work with clients all over North America. Give me a call if you'd like to review your project. - Eric

In the 'General' tab of DBX for your door, specify 'Percent Open" in the 'General' section.

I did one once using a railing.

Build / Cabinet / Shelf

If all you need to do is show a shelf, try using a soffit or a closed box shape sized to your needs.

I've done ray tracing for years but since X13, just PBR RT.

I have an RTX3060, works great.

Ditto to what both David and Rene said. Importing your project to render in other software just adds one more layer of complexity which hardly seems worth it given the level of quality available from X13. Here's a kitchen I modeled and rendered n X13:

Ditto to that!

Very simple to do with the 'Reflect About' function https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00284/using-the-reflect-about-object-tool.html

I can only comment on what I see when I open the plan in the reader (you can download a free AutoCAD Viewer here https://www.autodesk.com/products/dwg-trueview/overview ) so I would guess that's the case unless AutoCAD will allow different layer sets. Perhaps someone with AutoCAD can chime in here. Be sure to read the info that comes up when you click on the 'Help' tab in the DBX.

Nily: To export all floors, go to File/Export/Export All Floors (DWG,DXF). There are several more steps which are pretty self explanatory (take advantage of the 'Help' button on the DBX). Once you've gone through the process, everything will be on one floor and you'll just have to switch off the layers you don't want to see. Check out this article from the Knowledge Base https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00013/converting-plan-files-to-dwg-or-dxf.html Hope this helps - Eric

Substance Player is a great tool, it's bailed me out several times already.

I'd be happy to review your plans.

Here's a simple offset tile pattern I created with Substance Player:

This is a perfect application for Substance Player. If you don't want to go through the download and learning process (it's pretty simple), do a search for an offset tile image in your favorite search engine.

Is this what you're looking for? https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model/d4aea22c-49c5-4b01-8a6b-01ff2680cc4e/Plantation-Shutter

Are you adding the shutters through the 'Treatments' tab in the window DBX?
