Why does my old laptop out perform my new one?
Garybills replied to Vaughn10's topic in General Q & A
I have a 2 year old MSI Stealth with RTX 3070 and it seems like I had a similar issue when I got it. I can’t remember for sure, but I think Chief wasn’t using the RTX 3070 and there was a setting to change it. I’m not at my computer now but maybe someone else knows. -
Here is a link that describes what you're wanting. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/390/stair-wall-options-partial-railing-wall-under-stairs-stairwell.html?playlist=89

Auto Dormer has no exterior end wall, only side walls
Garybills replied to RichardKn's topic in General Q & A
@RichardKnI downloaded the file but when I try to open in Chief it says no data. -

In HDP you can't add layers to the floor structure, but you can make a separate slab and change the material to Insulation and set the elevation below the garage slab.

Can't get rid of 1/16" added to dimension trouble
Garybills replied to tsoftwerks's topic in General Q & A
Thanks Michael, I do learn a lot from the replies on here and as far as down vote it doesn't bother me because I've been married 45 years and most of my suggestions get down voted LOL. I hope everyone had a good Christmas and has a Happy New Year!!!!! -

Garybills replied to tsoftwerks's topic in General Q & A
Check your Plan Dimensions Defaults, Primary Format, Smallest Fraction. Changing it to 1/8" will fix your dimensions in the garage.  -

You have them applied to the window as curtains, apply them as blinds. The three windows I applied as blinds, the single you have as curtains.

Check your ceiling structure and see if the finish is thick. I copied your condition by making the drywall 60" thick in the bathroom.

I did basically the same as Rene, except I deleted the slab and made the porch in two sections. I set the porch height 12" higher and auto built the roof, then edited the roof planes to clean it up. My wife is in bed with a stomach bug or the flu so me and the dog are bord, LOL. Happy Thanksgiving. 11-17.plan

Front walls of manually drawn dormers do not generate
Garybills replied to mattivester's topic in General Q & A
There aren't walls around the winders to close them off. Try drawing walls and adjusted the winders to match the stairs. -

Front walls of manually drawn dormers do not generate
Garybills replied to mattivester's topic in General Q & A
For the front wall problem, Open second floor wall, structure, default wall top height -
Here is an edited copy of your plan, I reset the floor and ceilings to your defaults and rebuilt the roof, walls, floors and ceilings. Then I turned off auto rebuild roof and all the framing, lowered the floor for the upstairs then manually drew in the floor joist and rebuilt each wall framing to get the framing to look correct. I was bored so I cleaned up some of the roof that wasn't connecting properly. Someone may have an easier way of doing it but here is an option. Ivy Woods 80'-10 House 202309212043 EDITED.zip

I made a copy of your plan but had to remove the electrical and furniture to get it below 14 MB. You can use it to see the settings I used on the roof and also the porch railing to define the patio area. I hope this gets you going and with some video watching and others helping out. I wasn't sure which version of Chief you're using so if you add a signature to you profile it will help. Williams_fp edit remove electrical and furniture.plan
