    You can specify the flooring, walls, etc as you would in any other room through the DBX for the room or the walls.

    Your problem appears to be in the wall properties and your default settings. This article from the Knowledge base explains it in detail https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00658/specifying-which-wall-layer-exterior-dimensions-locate.html

    The total thickness of your lower wall (foundation) is 8" but your pony wall (lower section) is 8 15/16".

    It looks like you need to adjust the height of your porch. Best to post the plan so we can get a look at whats going on with your plan.

    Palmer: Follow these steps Select your top drawer and then click 'Lock from Auto Resize' Select the other two drawers and make sure that "Lock from Auto Resize' is unchecked Select the 'Vertical Layout Parent' at the top of the list and then click 'Equalize' The bottom 2 drawers should now be equal size, Check out this article for more info https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-02945/designing-cabinet-fronts.html - Eric

    Use a CrossSection/Elevation camera and make sure the Terrain Permiter layer is turned on.

    Renderings are my specialty, give me a call if you'd like to review your project...

    You can open your files created in earlier versions with X15 but once they are saved in the new version, you cannot open them in an older version. Check out this article from the Knowledge Base https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-01209/message-this-plan-cannot-be-opened.html There is also an issue with the file type used in older versions, more info here https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00279/opening-legacy-files.html

    I'm in search of 3D symbols for THG bath fixtures, Hamptons collection. I need sink faucets, bath filler, shower fittings, etc. Does anyone have these in your library that you could share?
  16. ericepv
    I'll second what DB said, a picture file is the best way to accomplish this.

    Try using a glass panel door with 3 vertical lites and then set the thickness of the muntins to you desired size. In the materials tab, set the glass to a material to match the rest of the door.

    Here's a link to Rene's tutorial:

    Rob: Click on the gear icon to the right of the preview panel, that will bring up a drop down menu. From there, click on 'Details' & 'Preview'. You can also do this with the 'Folders' section by right clicking and choosing 'Filter Results'. Rene did a great video on the new library awhile back, if I can find it I'll post it here. Eric

    roofing

    ericepv replied to Opondo's topic in General Q & A

    In the DBX for your roof, click on 'Frieze' and chose a molding profile. Then open the DBX for the wall on which the roof is placed and in the 'Roof' section, check 'Include Frieze' in 'Roof Options'

    I downloaded this symbol (attached) from 3D Warehouse for a project I did a few years ago. You can bring it into SU and separate it manually. Cabinet Latch-Kitchen.skp

    Your walls do not align on the exterior because they are two different widths. The wall to the left has a 50mm cladding making it 300mm vs the wall on the right which is only 250mm.
