  1. Excellent. Thank you all for the quick feedback!
  2. Can anyone assist with how to gather counts on lumber quantities in three dimensions? I have used the Materials List/Calculate Materials function but it only provides aggregate material needed in 2 dimensions, such as 4,800 linear feet of 2 x 8's. I need it in 3 dimensions, for example, a quantity of 28 - 2 x 8 x 12's. I need this for a lumber estimate. Our local lumber yards no longer manually prepares takeoffs based on visual drawings. Thanks, Jeff Nelson X13 J Martin Homes
  3. Dermot, Thank you for the additional info. Yes, I'm a new user. Pretty obvious I'm sure Bought it last month and have spent at least 100 hours already watching tutorial videos and sketching learning how to use the app. I am in the restoration and remodeling industry and have used Xactimate and Symbility exclusively and wanted a better solution to produce 3D images for clients to better visualize the finish out. Currently learning how to drop in unit cost pricing for project estimates and takeoffs. The online tutorials are great for getting started. The extensive amount of functionality is no doubt going to take months to figure out!
  4. Scott, thanks for the tip! I went to the 0 level and deleted the slab footings to get rid of garage and patio slabs. Still can't figure out how to get rid of that elevated wall in the back! Also, any idea how to remove the extended wall in the SW corner? I zoomed in and the walls appear to be aligned perfectly. Humble Chief, I went to the A and 0 levels to find the stray wall but no dice. I've selected auto fix on everything but it's still there.
  5. Thanks for the clarification on the file type! Attached is the Dropbox link for the plan file. https://www.dropbox.com/s/3hb190qyhyofqfu/Aubrey v3 3173sf.plan?dl=0
  6. Tommy and Ryan, Thank you for your replies. I'm using version X13. Closing and reopening Chief doesn't fix the problem. I've never been able to select rooms in Ortho view, only in the plan views. Guess I'm doing something wrong... I've attached a pdf of the plans and Word doc screen shot of the ortho view and plan view. I can't find the garage and patio anywhere on the plan view in order to delete them. And you'll also notice an elevated wall in the ortho screen shot that I have no idea how it got there and also can't find it in the plan view to delete it. Thank you both again.

  7. In a sketch I created the garage and back patio are still showing up in the orthographic views despite having deleted them from the floor plan. More specifically, the garage and patio do not show up in any of the plan views, but they do show up in the orthographic views and I can't figure out how to find them to ensure they are fully deleted. Hoping someone can help shed light on how to fix this. Thanks!
