  1. @Doug_N @GeneDavis @Alaskan_Son Thank you all for the recommendations. I ended up creating a door symbol which worked great! Symbol attached for anyone to use; Door Slab - Custom 6 Flat Panels.calibz
  2. Hi there, Is there a way to have the door slab material align so the horizontal joints line up from the front of the door / side? Shown in the 3D view when the door is open. Maybe a solution would be to create a door symbol using polylines so it isn't a Ship Lap Material? Wasn't sure if there was an easy fix just using the material on a Slab Door. Thanks in advanced!
  3. Thanks Rob, this worked out perfectly! I just made a material that was 100% translucent!
  4. Thank you for the recommendation, I already have "plumb" checked off in the "options" tab.
  5. Hi there - I'm wondering if there is a way to have the top fascia piece cut horizontally so it doesn't extend past the bottom fascia. I have played around with the different depth / options but think I am missing something. Thanks in advanced!
  6. That worked thank you very much @Alaskan_Son!
  7. Hello! Is there a way to have invisible walls for a deck / not have a drywall finish show on the deck face board? I have been having this issue for a while, to fix it i just manually drag the wall up above the decking and it disappears, but wondered if there was a setting in the wall or deck that I'm missing that could make this easier. I seem to have this issue when drawing invisible walls around a stairway for a deck as well. Thanks in advance!
  8. Okay great thanks! I have blocked them before but wondered if there was another way
  9. Hi there - I am wondering if there is a way to place a faucet into a base cabinet and have it "snap" or move with the cabinet when it's moved. (Similar to when a sink is inserted). I played around with the "options" tab within the fixture but nothing has made it "snap" to the cabinet. Since I started using chief I have just been selecting the cabinet + the faucet and moving it together, but I just wondered if there was an easier way as I would like to share some vanities with some colleagues. Thanks in advanced!
  10. Okay great I finally got it to work! I used the default floor structure / re-built the framing. I really don't have much knowledge with the 3D automatic framing but would like to get a better understanding. Hi Rob - I did try changing the group, but again don't have much knowledge here, I tried just doing #2? Maybe this also contributed to it working? Thank you everyone for your help!
  11. Thank you I had not! I don't typically use the framing functions but would like to start. I have specified "Lumber" as the type of floor joist, and it keeps showing as "I-Joist". Any ideas on why this is? I have tried "re-build framing" function. Thanks Rob that did the trick! I have issues with the deck framing disappearing quite often. Not sure if this is a common pain point, I have tried looking up in forums and would like to start a new topic at some point.
  12. I tried to remove the ceiling layer - but unfortunately the floor joists from above aren't showing. Also now have a blank area where the rim joist / floor joists would be at the sundeck. Any ideas?
  13. Thank you @DBCooper and @robdyck - these are both great solutions
  14. Hello - I have had this issue before and have just drawn a molding line in the past, but wondered if there was a solution. When drawings a stone skirting using a pony wall, I add a "wall cap" as a stone sill. I make it the same height as the window trim (3 1/2") as it would look best lined up. However, when I put the pony wall at that height / wall cap to be exactly where the 3 1/2" window trim is, it doesn't show the wall cap being continuous. I would like it at 39 1/2" high. If I specify the pony wall as 39" high it shows the wall cap being continuous (this is what I want but at 39 1/2"). Trim / wall cap colours changed to show better for examples;
  15. Thanks so much for responding Rob. That is unfortunate to hear. I kind of cheated the way it looks, I changed the curb to 4" high, and then specified the "terrain to top" to 4". So the driveway doesn't slope down to the road, but the curb makes it appear that it might be! It will do for now!
