Glad to find this discussion. Do CA developers read chieftalk?
Considering the typical automation level, the fireplace is pretty dumb. I do remodels often, and am required to show the existing conditions - this very often includes a basic brick fireplace box 5' wide and a brick chimney 3' wide. And of course a significant foundation. Someday I'll be expert enough to write a macro, but would sure be nice if Chief had added two simple functions to the new x7 - which instead prompts me to extend the fireplace box up as a "chimney". Sheesh.
