  1. I added parapet walls on the Attic floor & this morning I noticed notches after I adjusted the entry room walls. Don't think that is what caused it but I can't figure why the entry room is causing this. Also there is an off wall cap bugging me. Any advice will be welcomed. Shields New.zip
  2. That is one large room. It is a Room Elevation Camera So the door wall defines the room. Why would a knee wall be ignored? It is not defining the room.
  3. Thanks Robert, that worked but I don't know why? It's one big room
  4. Why is the knee wall not showing in this view. [E15] Looks good in camera view Amato New Roof.zip
  5. Wanting to hide any metal roof fasteners & have a bead board ceiling I was think this may work, What do you think about foil layer rather than insulation? Or do you have a better ides?
  6. What happens when you turn the stud layer OFF in that layer set?
  7. I agree the roofer should have corrected the plan defect as he has to warranty his work.
  8. A short explanation of how to back up the custom tool bars may help.
  9. This may be interesting to you programmers as a tool. https://www.autohotkey.com/ If you want to automate more on your computer, then AutoHotkey is something you need to download. It's a custom scripting tool that let you define your own commands, making it as useful as whatever you can dream up.

  10. Maybe one of these will help. Did not try it myself. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/3537-stair-solution360-and-greater-spiral-stair-video-by-yusuf/?do=findComment&comment=30434 https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/3706-smooth-curved-railing-video-by-yusuf/?do=findComment&comment=31829
  11. After that check the floor height maybe need -4" Then check your floor structural thickness, you may need to adjust to manage ceiling height below.
  12. When the problem raised it head it saw an attic wall protruding through the roof, see picture. So then I removed the flat ceiling for the wine room & added a manual ceiling, no help. What I did not realize is the walls exterior surface was into the wine room. Once the wall was reversed I went to the attic & dragged the hall attic wall down & the offset attic wall was removed by Chief. The dragged the attic wall right to close the room off & it built correctly. Thank for trouble shooting it for me.
  13. Having trouble with the Wine Room Ceiling. The main area is a vaulted ceiling but the wine room should have a 12' MOL flat ceiling. The adjoining attic wall will not build, see picture. I tried adding a ceiling plane & tried setting the wall to build through ceiling. Might be the pony wall. Just can't get it to cooperate. Before I did all that the attic wall built through the roof about 4 feet. I will be out for a few hours. Thanks Barn 2.zip
  14. Show off! Thanks Robert, after I added room divider in the corner of the Common area & the closet below and playing whack-a-mole with the ceiling heights for 2 hours I finally got it, I think. The wall did not build correctly in the corner but I can add studs to fill that. Thanks again.
  15. This is one of those remodel houses where the 1st floor ceiling is 8' & 10'. I've chased those floor heights & have finally got them correct. But the south 8' wall framing will not build correctly & I lost one of my 2nd floor walls in the area. I have a ceiling plane defining the new 8' ceiling at the junction of the old & new portions of the house. Anyone have a clue as to what is causing the framing to build short of 8'? Gomez.zip
  16. Room addition with frame wall, see picture. I've already created the plan but wanted this wall shown. Should I use pony wall or just add a material region to create the lower large ship lap siding?
  17. I tend to only use 24" wide doors I closets & some tight toilet rooms. They seem too small but I'm 240# & 6'. Do you use them for rooms other than closets.
  18. Thanks that helped. It was a new project layout file reused and I did not look at enough sheets. It was on sheet 22.
  19. I have a copied layout file & somewhere in it is a link to the old plan file. How do you find that linked item to delete it? I remember Michael giving advice in the past but can not find that post.
  20. I almost never change from 1". Too lazy I guess.
