Thanks solver....that was helpful. It worked. Leads me to another question. How come chief doesnt want slab checked if im going for a foundation like what is attached.

i am attaching the plan file for a foundation issue. apparently i have screwed up the settings and cannot get it to work now. i need the finished floor to be 24" above the terrain and the exposed stem wall to be bricked. i am attaching pics of a home that is close to what im going far. it is taking the 37 1/2" stemwall like i want below the porches but not for the rest of the home. thanks guys for any suggestions Tim McCarty.plan

DONE! THANKS!

so what if the house is like my home i live in. the typical ceiling elevation is 9' ceilings. my trays bump upwards into the attic therefore leaving every ceiling at 9'. i noticed on this demo video the trays push downward when i do what you taught. would it be -12" and -6" intervals? thanks rene

what is the proper way to get rid of x10 completely now that i have x11 upgrade? i am right to think it is taking up uneeded space? i mistakingly open by accident sometimes as well.

you guys are just awesome.....i am always learning new things with chief........thanks

i cannot figure out the polyline/cabinet top command to make tray ceilings. currently, the plan file has 10' ceilings throughout. the master bedroom and living room have the tray ceilings i am trying to build. double trays, 6" thick each i'm thinking. the magenta polyline shows the boundaries. can anyone school me? see attached...i left the working plan on showing everything. jimmy_g.plan

chief doesn't have this in the cad details library???? it's one of the most common foundations in the south.

yeah, i kinda got aggravated here recently...oops!

heck yeah!!! thanks for educating me rene!

hmmm, no walls in attic level. that being said, when dealing with a loft, how can i create the subflooring for the loft without creating a second floor? i tried creating a new level (2nd floor) and it messes the roof up of course. it's like i only need the floor level with no walls.

so i have a loft area in my tiny home and i have the walls stopping below. however, even after remaking the roof, the ceiling acts as if the walls are ballooning thru. how can i make the drywall remove the gaps in the ceiling? thanks! cant find anything on this issue.

does chief have an 11x17 border template already made to use? if so, can you tell me how to access it? thanks i have a tiny home and the 24x36 is way too big for 1/4"=1'-0" scale

much thanks!

was just needing some guidance on auto dims and running dims. when they overlap it's all one entity. trying to learn what im doing wrong to seperate them.

oh my gosh, im so STUPID. thanks that helped alot.

thanks for the reply! where in the library is that type door located? i must be typing in the wrong name in the search.

anyone know where i can find something similar to the slider attachment? i do not see anything in the library or 3d chief library.

fixed...

i did say that...i input it in the wrong spot.

The floor height of the home and decks are 30" above grade. When i made the carport it wanted to set the slab at the floor height as i showed.
