Hi I tried to export a plans but got this message . any advice?

I imported a plan PDF from the builder to make changes somehow when i activated this section by accident when making wall dimention chnages

Hi Somehow I managed to bring this up while working on a wall in my plan, but I have no idea what I did to activate it or what this view is called. I’m assuming it’s some type of wall schematic. Can someone tell me what it is, how I activated it, and whether it’s something I should be using when preparing plans? I’d like to understand what I stumbled across rather than just close it and move on! Thanks!

k i will check out again thanks

thank you everyone for your responses.. greatly appreciated

I have only chief.. no auto cad

when i try to right click - nothing happens

I received a ZIP file from a developer that was originally sent by another draftsman. Can anyone tell me how I can determine how many floor plans, if any, are included in the file? When I opened the ZIP, I found a floor plan layout , but when I open it in Chief only see dwg files I’m not sure if I’m missing something, if there are other files I should be opening, or if only one floor was actually included. Any help would be appreciated! Lot 13.zip

Hi I'm designing an addition to an existing house, but I also need to renovate parts of the existing home so everything flows well with the new addition. Is there a video or tutorial that shows the best workflow for this? Specifically, how do you work with the existing house and the new addition in the same plan while clearly showing what is existing, what is being renovated, and what is new? I'd appreciate any suggestions or recommended videos. Thanks! Levina

Thanks got it!

I've received several cad files but cant open them ,, I'm attaching one . any guidance is appreciated! Cheers Churchill Bungalows (2).zip

WHAT SPCE DO I NEED FOR ACESS WHEELCHAR IN BATROMM

HI There's a gable bracket I want to use but it needs a slight adjustment Can I change the CAD block or do I need to create another Cheers Levina

yes it is a huge project to learn,, and no I didn't use symbols I read evrryhting on it but couldnt get it . too many questins to ask when it s soo new to work. so edited copied and pastedd

yes I know thanks I was so frustrated that I didn't read properly,, thnks

yes - but i have the site done completed . and all is good ,, I'm just trying to get these three house at different heights and not floating like this sample

Hi I have three houses that are on a two sided sloped terrain , Not only are they on a sloped terrain they also need to show at three different heights like steps But when I slope the terrain the first house sits right but the next house just floats how do i adjust their heights so they look like steps. Terrains are my nemesis in this project and without DWG contour elevation heights its just a guessing game. The client wants these three houses to sit higher and at the correct angles Ive attached an image marking the houses. I've viewed terrain videos and tried adding valleys hills - terrain regions.. any direction is welcomed Cheers Levina

I keep referring to your video and its helped tremendously. you can read as much as you can but visuals are the most instructive way to learn . I was also able to import the contours DWG over the terrain DWG... its all a learning curve and you've been so helpful.. Again thank you
