I'm not a "truss expert" by any means...but, it looks like if you select "energy heel" the top chord of the truss will extend out to meet the sub-fascia. See attached:

Thank you! Glad to help!

So..I've been doing some experimenting with style pallets and it appears if you add the "interior door" component to a style pallet to make global changes...i.e.; changing the door style from a 6-panel to a 3-panel...it appears all the hinged doors will change to the new style...but pocket doors and sliding doors do not change. Is this correct or is there some issue I'm missing? I've tried adjusting the settings in many different ways...without any luck. Thanks...

I don't think a style pallet will change a "mulled" window unit. I've just done a few experiments...and could not get a mulled unit to change.

You should probably attach the plan also..or at least a sample plan. This just makes solving the issue so much easier. Thanks.

I As Glenn mentioned...I believe you will have to try to use either a roof plane or a ceiling plane to create the sloping soffit. I'm thinking you may also have to manipulate the "baseline" also...as it appears the pitch is constantly changing. Probably not the easiest thing to accomplish in Chief.

Thanks Don!

To me it's the door swing direction tool in the bottom tool bar...which I have a hotkey assigned to. Fast...

You are welcome!

Most power users don't need to watch...you've been there and done that. However, I'd be interested in comments regarding the way I created the molding surrounding this door opening...wonder if my method is way to complex and if there is a much more efficient method that I am completely missing. To create this video I use a combination of walls, pony walls, polyline solids, custom moldings and symbols. So....there is a lot to learn in this video. Enjoy...

Yea...it's more efficient I suppose. Just something I noticed today as I was clicking away and thought I'd gather other "expert" opinions. Certainly not the most overwhelming concern... Thanks.

Just adjust each roof layer as you want it to be constructed. See attached. Roofs align at ridge...but each has a different structure

Why does Chief give us a tool for "exterior wall"...and another for "interior wall"? We can select any wall type for either tool...we could use "brick-4" for an interior wall...or an exterior wall. Maybe it has something to do with assigning specific layers? Just wondering....seems a bit redundant.

Why would you want to build as "one piece"?

Thanks...same to you. Hope your weekend was great!

Yep...sometimes I get "tunnel vision". Thanks for taking the time to watch Eric!

Based on a post by @kwhitt in another area of Chief Talk I made this video. Enjoy...

I made a video specific to your question...however, I didn't tackle your diagonal wall under the stair as I think this is one of the big problems with your stair not working perfectly. Is that really how it's constructed? So...this video just shows how I'd place a sloping solid wall between the two stair sections. Hope it helps you somewhat...

Yep...any molding will make that. Here's one...Mexican Lintel.calibz I've attached an example....see pics.

What Levis said! Yes...paste and hold position. Change the view or floor reference.

Here is another set of videos Chief has on the subject; https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/playlists/120/remodeling.html

You need to create an "AS-Built" plan...and a separate plan for the "remodel". There are a lot of new features that can help...starting in X11. You should watch the videos Chief put together... Here is an overview video from Chief: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/2442/productivity-features-added-in-x11.html?playlist=156

Thanks Eric...now I got it. Yea...doesn't quite work the way you'd think it should. Your suggestion as a work around does work...and it's not that cumbersome either. I can live with it..

Maybe I'm not understanding the problem exactly...but, the room divider/tray ceiling seems to work for me in X12.

Looks like you have changed your "floor defaults"...and that has your ceiling screwed up. You might also just use the "reset defaults" and see how that works. You might have to re-draw the trusses...
