Not much to figure out, it's invisible, hence the Holes, use Normal foundation Walls or other methods.... this is the Final Pool Design from above with 6" deep sun deck, 36" Spa and the main pool at 8' deep. the slope was just a P.Solid drawn in elevation.

Stop Using Paint Tool!!!!! Especially the newbies!!!
Kbird1 replied to ShaneK's topic in General Q & A
Completely Agree especially on Exterior Walls , just copy the closest Wall-type and adjust the Wall Definition and assign the material as needed, don't just change the material on the Material Tab for the existing Wall. *** I say this because, recently in someone's Plan I was helping, I came across a strange Paint Can caused issue. All the walls in a two Story Sports-barn building (with a Full Basketball court) were the Same Color (BM OC-26) but different walls looked like they were a different Shades of the same color ... I thought it was just lighting at 1st but no....and when checking the materials, I didn't notice at 1st that the Word Default was missing from the Material's name in the Select Window, so I fixed the Wall definitions for each wall-type and then forced them all back to Default using the Default Material Button and suddenly the Whole interior looked the same......The Person later confirmed they had tried to fix the issue themselves ( with the paint can tool) and it only seemed to get worse, it doesn't make 100% sense to me that it being a Default ...or Not would cause this but there you go.... another reason to take great care with the Paint Can Tool.

It only "shows itself when the Diamonds are on the same straight line and Chief thinks the extra node (diamond) is not needed ...at least that is my current experience. And if you don't see a Diamond on a Corner it is almost always because there are really TWO , very small and very close together, usually from a previous drag and drop operation, so either Undo till it comes back and try again OR zoom all the way in and drop one of the diamonds onto the other to fix it. ( may take more that one attempt ) ...again just my experience. M.

It is because the Dishwasher was "designed" to be insert into a cabinet via the cabinet DBX , not dropped on to the Kitchen floor then dragged into the hole with the Ctrl Key ...in which case you must "zero out" the symbol. M.

Kbird1 replied to divreig's topic in General Q & A
there is a thread here somewhere on the forum where I posted the old "Style" template files from x9 ...so not sure if you got those or brought them forward when Migrating to newer Versions. M. -

They removed the Plan Templates which were basically just cabinets of each type, in X10 but in X11 I think they brought them back as "Cabinet Styles Templates" which is what Steve is referring too. -
$99USD unless you are a 1 man band operation , then it's only $37 --- Nice !

Care to comment on Ryzen CPUs for the OP Larry @HumbleChief
-
Not sure what you are doing as it works for me ..."play" a bit more perhaps.... here I placed two identical windows then clicked RH side of right window and changed its size to 44"

Click on the windows side handle(s) ( at the Jamb) not the middle handle ---seen in red in pic above.... M.

Pretty much my thoughts on those comments too along with simply setting the General Wall Default Resize About option to Inner surface in your Template.

Thanks David , appreciate the post , I was concerned the OP may think I was somehow giving bad information based only on the downvote. Mick.

may be best to Post over in the Seeking and perhaps Offers Forums Seeking Services - ChiefTalk Forum (chiefarchitect.com) Offering Services - ChiefTalk Forum (chiefarchitect.com)

Sorry but Wow you jumped in with both feet there , I know you are busy, so was only expecting a comment the Ryzen CPUs since I don't know about them specifically... Thanks. M.

If you ran the Command in the Article from an Administrator Command Prompt and it hasn't worked it is probably best you call Tech. support Tomorrow for more help. there have been a few other reports of the FTH problem , so make sure to search the Forum for other info too. maybe worth putting your hardware specs in your sig. with an issue like this.... Link. to KB Article incase someone needs it in the Future : Message: Windows Fault Tolerant Heap (FTH) has been enabled for this application. (chiefarchitect.com)
