Use a short room divider placed perpendicular to the short wall and snap it to the wall then move the room divider to where you want the wall to stop.

If indeed you are looking for this type of footing there is a bonus catalog with a bunch of pier footings.

Please post the plan. We can guess but without the plan it’s a guess. My free first guess has to do with the wall definition and settings on those frost walls and specifically the framed wall above them that I am guessed is marked as a structural wall with footing below and the footing having a vertical footing selected.

Create a separate default to measure doors to outside and change to that default and dimension. But unless you want to delete all the other automatic dimensions it would be best to just use your automatic dimension tool and run just that wall moving the line to the proper offset you want instead of using the automatic dimension tool.

Doesn't appear to be the latest: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19282/radeon-rx-vega-m-graphics.html

Using a floor material region set to cut existing finish layer set to same material and extended through rooms.

They are too close together or overlapping. pull them away from each other then bump them together either with the mouse or arrow keys.

The only problem that usually occurs with this situation (here is a doorway mulled with a pass through) is that the sill cuts into the finished floor. There are some ways to fix this including using solids, floor material regions, etc.

One of the few places where use soffit material for ceiling might work if you have it set correctly as well.

Best to start your own thread or better yet a quick search for how to do something. googled: chief architect shadow board and got this video as top response here it is talking about frieze board which is the next nearly identical panel down from shadowboard in the roof dbx. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/708/frieze-molding.html

So Canvas will supply a plan file but it is greatly dependent upon who was contracted by them (most of them I have seen come out of India and the middle east) how it is done. I believe most are drawing it in another program and then importing the dwg file using cad to wall tools etc. I have seen some super weird plans come back. I got to the point that I don't recommend using their .plan files and just getting the pdf report to trace over. I recently had one for a client that had walls that were literally set as single layer and 3/4" thick for an exterior wall and the next room over sharing the same wall was 10" and had several weird layers in it. The wall IRL was literally a standard 2x6 framed wall w/ 7/16" sheathing and lap siding with 1/2" drywall... I just printed that file to a pdf to scale and traced over it in my own template. Granted not all that I have seen have been that bad but that particular job was also off by about 20"+ from the upstairs walls. It's an extremely well priced service but you better take some control dimensions.

Best to probably start a new thread for something like this. Best guess though is you inadvertently hit the color toggle button (oob on the right side toolbar that looks like a yellow house with a black box) or the hotkey for this which oob is F8.

Yeah again never tried it but it would probably save you from a few headaches with the clients. Pretty sure the model still keeps its independent materials definitions so should be able to still use the paint materials tool. Wouldn’t be able to add furniture or change furniture. But then again we don’t want it to be too easy right… And yeah I just use the 3d viewer if possible although I hate that stupid basic view as it gives them the first impression that we did it with crayons.

Never used the desktop viewer option but seems what is said here; would work in principle. 1.) Create a full symbol from the model. 2.) Place symbol into a chief oob template plan with just the terrain info copied over. 3.) Send client that plan file for them to view. Again never used it but it seems like this would work.?.?

Anyone else get prompted for an update today on x13? Had a random crash and then when I started it backup it said there was a new update. Looks like version 23.4.0.123OSX dated March 14th. I am in chief every day and first I have been prompted. Also curious that since X14 is already in Beta there is patches coming out for X13.

Is this true with new ultra chip? As I understand it, It was announced at the studio product line launch that a competitor product had developed their product to natively run on the arm technology AND it supposedly has rtrt working with the ultra chip…

Or perhaps it is your design process/workflow? If you are getting non even numbers it is up to you to place the walls in the place you want them. Maybe this article (https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-01116/moving-walls-using-dimensions.html) will help?

You can do it by customizing a parametric glass hinged door and changing the specifications but it takes some work. Most will just place a cad arc to show it.

Copy some of it to a basic plan and post it.

If you are using x13 (can't tell from your signature which version). There is the ability to use lateral framing in wall definitions so you can simply add the slats on the exterior and interior if you want both sides of the wall definition layers setting the size and distance you want to see. You can even add a thin black layer behind the slats so you see black between the slats.

In Addition in plan view if you look close there is a grip near the end of the door and you can open it or close it however you want it to show on plan as well as in 3d (when show open in 3d is selected).

Look at the options in the window schedule, and remember to add your total line at the bottom.

Select your two end trusses, open them, change them to reduced gable trusses, rebuild them. Once done with placing your trusses either select both roof planes and hit the frame selected to put in the rest of the framing manually. You most likely will have to clean up a little bit of framing but as long as your end trusses are reduce gable (and I suggest selecting as end trusses as well so it gives the backing for siding), the "outlookers" will build properly.

Were you using saved plan views in x12? If you were import the saved plan views as well and you should sync up. That is if I am understanding your issue correctly. Pictures speak a thousand words most of the time.
