    @just3northTry using 2 pass-throughs and set the frame to mitered. I had to place the pass-throughs first and size them to fit the fireplace, then placed the fireplace. If I try resizing the pass-throughs after the fireplace it puts the post back in the corner like you said. .

    @MelanieNC contact me and I’d be glad to discuss your roof project. Thanks. Gary

    You're trying to put a skylight in four different roof planes and a valley and two hips. That won't work.

    @GeneDavisI thought the OP was about the depth of the Mullion not the width. @johnny
  5. Garybills
    Look up Mullion in Help and it shows that the Mullion depth can only be set when a mulled unit is selected. I don't see a default setting for it.

    I had that on one the other day and the gable end overhangs were off by 1/4" and that caused it.

    I would draw it manually, turn of auto rebuild and change a couple roof settings.

    I haven't had any problems with mine.

    I could help you out in a couple weeks, if working remotely is an option. Thanks.

    For the 2nd floor, you have the back wall and the short invisible they are wall marked no room definition, that's why you can't select the rooms. Not sure where the vaulted ceiling is located.

    Is this what your wanting? Wall specification, structure and balloon through ceiling above.

    Check your roof Structure, roof layer, surface and Black standing seam, uncheck purlins and that will fix the roof not showing up. Then you can draw the manual hip roof over the mechanical building.

    I wasn't sure which door you meant, if it's the one I circled then I'd make a patio/porch and remove the little gable.

    @Sparky66 I’d be interested in talking to you about helping you out if you haven’t found anyone yet.

    It is calculated from the outside of the wall main layer and can be set to the surface which is the wall exterior layer. .

    There are no saved plan views or layer sets in HD. You can make new plan views like 1st floor, 2nd floor under the tools tab, but they wills have the same layers. this is one of the challenges of working on a HD file in Chief and them not being able to access all the Chief features.

    @buckeye43 I'm an old Buckeye myself, transplanted a couple hours south of you in West Virginia. I'd like to talk if you haven't found anyone yet. Thanks.

    I removed the countertop from the sink base, selected custom countertop for the cabinet and then broke it and adjusted to fit the sink.

    @Hammer7The Simpson catalog has 3D objects if you can find what you're looking for.
  20. Garybills
    I've been there too, it looks so simple after you spend a lot of time trying to figure something out.

    Select line 2 fir framing, you actually have the OSB marked framing.

    @buzzsaw204You can draw a cad line and use the trim objects tool. But it removes the cut section but if you edit something on the deck it will rebuild the decking after you save the view.

    @MN_JohnHcheck in the room specification, structure tab, floor structure. Its set for I-Joist.

    @BCNABECheck the Rail Specification, rail style, start & end post. I checked one of my X15 plans and they open in X16 as none on the start and end.

    @westvaleThe only time I've seen that is when I was using the Paint tool on something close to the window and hit the glass accidentally.
