  1. I am trying to install a fireplace, but I am confused by how to install what I need. 

     

    I am using Chief Architect x12.

     

    I have attached files. 

     

    I figured I have to slide the insert in, but I don't know what I am doing wrong.

  2. I am using CHIEF ARCHITECT X12. I have been trying to design a Scandinavian Frame House. I have been partially successful, however when I get to the roof settings, I can't seem to get the roof lines how they are for a Scandinavian Frame House. I have provided examples of what I am trying to do, what I have done, and the issue I am having.

  3. I am trying to design a contemporary a-frame cabin similar to the one in the images. However, I am not able to figure out the roof type I should use or even where to begin. Any suggestions? 

     

    I am using X12 Chief Architect. The A-Frame I am attempting to draw is two stories. As you can see in the image, instead of a full gable roof, it's "half". Previously, I have constructed an upper floor as a Cape Cod and "ignored the second floor", but I cannot figure out how to configure the second floor and roof to match how it looks in the image. 

     

    Because I am still learning the software, It's hard for me to explain what I am attempting to do. 

     

    Please see the annotated image. 

     

    More specifics: 20 x 40 Building. 9 Foot Ceilings Lower Floor/9 Foot Ceilings Upper Level (Sloped?)

  4. I am in the process of creating a plan for my A-Frame Chalet home for Chief Architect x12. The front of my home is "pointed" and I am having some difficulty creating the roof for it. I was able to create the roof, but the "pointed" edge is not aligning correctly. Please see the images. Any advice?
