Been working on this for no less than an hour and can't seem to get it right. Any help greatly appreciated. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/xiummhhsepflm3x7v8w3o/MUNTIN-PLAN.plan?rlkey=iiymodnpdpfwv0cbc7evfxtne&dl=0

I'll be darned if the walls were just out of alignment enough to throw things off. Thought it was kind of entertaining. Annoying but entertaining. THANK YOU

Just discovered this thread and want to thank you all for the great tips. Worked a treat in my custom application.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Struggled with that forever!!!

Thanks P, hope you're doing well! Tried a bunch of options but no love so far. Have t you ever had it work?

Is there a way to do so other than manually pulling up each wall in 3D?

Thanks Mick, seems like the more I know the less I remember about Chief.

Thanks Mick, I'll give it a try - forgot to change my signature.

Thanks Jim!! Worked a treat but a bit confusing as the ceiling is already set to 144" and seem like there should be no need to 'balloon through ceiling above' as the ceiling is already 12 ft tall? Oh well. THANKS AGAIN!

Found this old thread but can't seem to get rafter color to change using this technique. I have exposed rafter tails that I would like to be brown instead of the default 'fir' color.

Vary helpful on the door!! I'll see if I can duplicate!

I haven't designed a turret entry for a while and am a bit stumped. I can get close to the attached pics (no need for the extra detail) but Chief is building the upper section a bit weird with no stucco finish and the arch into the entry seem to be defined by the door with more weird finishes. Would like to create an arched opening with the door behind in a separate wall? Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks!! I see it's been 'fixed'.

...as if it were a wall. Gonna report it. Anyone else not so happy with this behavior?

Wasn't sure who to mark as the solution so thanks Tea and DB.

GOT IT! Saved the new symbol to the library one more time. THANK YOU again!!!

THANK YOU1 I seem to have it most of the way figured out but can't seem to get the label to auto generate without editing the CAD block then applying changes. Am I missing a step?

Thanks T but can't seem to get everything I'm looking for.

That behaves like other electrical symbols as in attaches to walls etc. I have a plan checker that needs a combination AFCi/GFCI like the Leviton AGTR1-0KW AFCI-GFCI Dual Function Outlet spec'd in kitchen/bath. Can a custom symbol be created that works like other electrical outlets? THANKS

Thanks DB, looks like you're right but a real PIA. Might report it as a suggestion.

Have had this happen numerous time but in this plan it seems to happen all over the plan. Any help greatly appreciated. Plan file below. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/0e34j69x0t345maf7st6o/WALL-LIGHT-1.plan?rlkey=jf8lihlv4ahf73u59tk9megpu&dl=0

Now, is there a way to express that 'label' in feet and inches?

THANK YOU so, so much for taking the time to explain that process. I had no idea adding a segment turned a line into a polyline and no idea there were options to label it and an object specific label option to show visible length. Must be a bit frustrating understanding those things so clearly and wondering why I'm not getting it but really had no clue and again, so much appreciate taking your valuable time to explain. Tried it and it worked a treat.

No change or editing handles even with polyline labels turned 'on'.
