Sounds like an operating system issue.

Probably a difference in your gpu. That being said, PC, Mac, or anything I don't reccommend sending live camera views to layout... Export them as a png and import them into layout. much cleaner and smaller template file size.

Tips & Techniques is where you share with others your tips & techniques. You should put this type of question in the Q&A section It is easy to make a murphy bed make a symbol out of a bed and make it as a millwork symbol. Use a bottom hinge door and on the back of that door use that symbol as a back of door attachment.

Use a pony wall set to 0 height for the lower wall. Right now the glass wall is building down there which looks like a gap.

A professional architectural designer averages from $90-135 per hour.

You might want to reread this entire thread.

Without seeing the plan I couldn’t tell you for sure but what I suspect is the walls you were trying to change which set back slightly from the middle section were not aligned properly with a foundation wall below. So, since there wasn’t a wall above the foundation wall Chief was automatically putting one there. Attic walls will shoot through a regular wall and you will have one material that won’t change because it’s the wall behind it. So in your case when you rebuilt the foundation it aligned those walls and fixed the issue getting rid of the extra attic wall that was “hiding” the actual wall.

Your foundation wall was not aligned properly so you had an attic wall there going up to the roof from the misaligned foundation wall.

Search the help files for layers and layer sets and read up on default settings.

You are not placing your windows exact or you are using Metric instead of imperial dimensions to place it. If you are holding control/Cmd. and moving the window in 3d or in plan placing it by not using dimensions then even thought the dimension may show it at 11'-2 1/4" it is probably actually at 11'-2 9/32" or so but the dimension is set to round.

Have you turned it off and on again? Is it plugged in? Sorry couldn't resist the typical IT questions. But sometimes a restart will do the trick.

This has been my go to with this exact scenario. Cabinets give lots of control for Wainscot.

There is one issue that is known and that is an issue when using dropbox and some other cloud services and working on the plan without downloading them to your computer. It was an issue that dropbox had at some point but still comes up occasionally.

Make it with a 3d solid make it a symbol and designate it correctly in the components section of the symbol dbx as a shelf. Just like in the field we have to make custom items.

Try a distribution path as well.

So what are you looking for??? Hard to help otherwise...

Look at the different material options for brick and read up on lintels.

Did you check for Rocks in the Core Library?

This photo shows exactly what I was saying above: You are using a filter with nothing selected to show so you are getting the filtered results of nothing. You need it to say Not Filtered where it currently says Active Filter. Change that and get your library back.

1.) Turn off the filter. 2.) Make sure your bottom window is not minimized at the bottom. Key is that you have a filter setup in that profile.

Read up on the difference between textures and patterns. Hint vector views use patterns, the other views use textures.

You have a filter set which is not allowing you to see anything that does not fall into those filtered results. Click the dropdown arrow for the Filters box.

Funny, I was just showing you that workaround when you posted.

Not possible to do but you can try adding a polyline mask over it with a white angled hatch line with transparent background. It will make the lines look dashed as long as it is in the draw order above the hatching.

Little tricky since its a drop beam and not a wall. But you can do it many ways. A few that come to mind: 1.) Add an opening no material section to your floor definition above that 2.) 3d Solid 3.) Drop your ceiling to be inside that space possibly adding an "opening no material" portion to the ceiling definition. or Alternatively why have a dropped beam for the Deck area, you have enough room in the floor structure there to have a hidden beam there that the joists can hang from. P.S. You need a column in that corner, and its a PE's consultation but if you are able to get away with a beam that small with just 2-3 columns I would be shocked (maybe above as trusses could cantilever that.)
