@DRyeHD - Damon, made you a long rambling video to explain how to fix this plan. 1 - Please don't drag wall tops/bottoms....just creates so many problems. 2 - Painting wall materials is also a big hassle...try to learn to create new explicit wall types. 3 - Don't place attic walls on the first floor... Damon - Outdoor Fireplace - many issues - Watch Video

Those tips sticking through the roof are because you have been manually dragging your walls...just need to "reset to default".... MN_JohnH - Wall stubs through roof fix - Watch Video

I played around with your plan a bit...seems if you add a "shadow board"...you can make the fascia disappear. This may be what you are trying to achieve? I've attached the plan I've been changing so you can review what I did to the roof. 299742722_moreproblems - Steve Edits.plan I fixed a few other things as well...you do have a "loft" on the 2nd floor so I made sure you had room definition and adjusted some of the walls/rails to make things work. Not sure it's what you want but you can make the needed changes.

@kristy3983 - just change the layer color in the layer set you are using. See attached.

@KnotSquare Mark - I looked at the PDF's you attached. I'm not clear on the "furred" framing detail. Is the framing meant to be attached to the surface of the insulation? Is the furring meant to be horizontal or vertical? The detail is not clear as to the "furring"...unless it's just another stud wall and the insulation is placed in between each stud? Is the siding attached directly to the furring strips? Just FYI...Chief will always place the soffit directly against the main layer....so, that is unavoidable. However, in a detail you could use a cad mask to hide this...or, like you said you could use a molding polyline to create the soffit. Also...the 2x member of the fascia should be the "eave fascia"...not the "sub facia". The only way you will see the "sub-fascia" in elevation is if you turn the rafter layer on in a layer set. I'd probably make the fascia a 2x and use a "shadow board" for the other piece of fascia trim...and make the sub-fascia 1/16" thick to make it disappear.

@KnotSquare - I highlighted the “trim framing to soffits” above. If you don’t want to see a soffit…make the soffit material “open no material”.

Mark - To get your rafters to "frame"...you need to go to the roof structure tab and make sure to check the "framing" box...otherwise chief will not "frame" the structure...it will be a solid block as you have now. Regarding the soffits...you need to check "Soffits" and "flat under eave sub fascia". Then...on the materials tab, make the soffit material "open no material". This will make Chief trim the rafters flat...but will not create a "soffit". It's there...but you won't see it.

Is this what you are trying to achieve?

Open the window edit dialogue - go to "Options"...check recessed>to main layer

@DRyeHD @solver As Eric suggests with his post...you don't HAVE to redraw the roofs to make the fix. I'd probable redraw them as one error still remains... Damon Roof Fix #2...for Solver - Watch Video

Scott - Break the railing pony wall at the where it intersects with the wall with the door @ the first floor. Make this section of wall "roof cuts wall at bottom". Place a ceiling plane...which should trim the wall. You will probably have to clean up things with a solid here and there.

@para-CAD - thanks...very much appreciate your comments!

It's time for you to upgrade...I did this for you in X8 but...it was like pulling teeth. You should open the plan and examine what I did...it can be done, but it's so much easier in X14 (even X12 or 13). X8 Plan attached. X8 Bath Plan - Chief Talk.plan

Maybe...you don't use a railing wall. Just use a Stucco wall, then insert doorways, no jamb, no casing. You should make adjustments to the doorway rough opening settings...no need to have a framing added 1" or so when you concrete block with stucco. Had to have a beach background for a Florida guy...

@EmmaCox - You should be able to use auto roof return. This option is in the wall edit dialogue. See screen clip. I can't comment on whether this "glitch" is due to the plan being started in a previous version...but, a simple roof return as you show in your screen clip should work in X14.

@KilianDrafting - you should definitely check out my “screened porch library”. No faster or better way to create a porch. https://www.mychiefskills.com

Oh…yea, I get the issue now

@KristjanM - am I missing something? Seems to work for me. I created a pony. Lower section is 10" concrete wall with a 2x6 wall on the interior. Upper wall is 2x6 and contains a window. I the attached screen clip...I opened the wall, in the "wall types" section I selected from "display in plan view"...lower wall. The window is showing. This display is independent of using "saved plan views"...

Don't get me started about the stair tool...it needs a complete overhaul. Is it possible that Chief Engineers just do not know how incapable this tool is?

@DRyeHD - Did you watch my video? Creating the space is fairly simple...I think. More than happy to help...but, what specific question(s) do you have?
