Toggle has never worked for me either (PC), so I have a default Icon just for going back on my toolbar too.

Thanks Joe, I renamed the Original Folder (-Orig) Yesterday , and copied my X10 Templates Folder into CA/DATA/X11 , so I had all my old Templates too Did the same for Textures and Toolbars actually So maybe I have messed something up with all my copying and pasting, will have to look into it more now.... M.

Well it seems he got his Fix and left.... so here's your Point.....

That was my Plan too , that's why I uninstalled before Installing the Public Beta for X11, and have already started my New Template setup but am now wondering if I Started with the right File...

Strange maybe I need to try again , cos it looks like the Uninstall didn't do a terrific job if thats the case M.

What date is on your files?

If you like his post , then like it in the Heart on the right so he gets his Points

It's called Residential Template.plan (Or Residential TemplateM if Metric) should be in Documents\Chief Architect Premier X11 Data\Templates or if it was overwritten by the migration a backup is in C:\Program Files\Chief Architect\Chief Architect Premier X11 (64 bit)\Templates

Thanks Joe appreciate you Posting that... Mick.

Not that I am aware of yet , and unless X11 just changed the ML for the better , it does not do a full industry standard take-off yet, it only lists exactly what is in the model ...without alot of work adding components and accessories etc yourself to each Item and working with macros etc...... this is also something I have wanted for a long while now as a Builder too.

The Roof Plane Controls the Wall Height, setting the Overhang on that Side to 1 1/2" (flush to wall in cross section) may get you close , but the Roof plane will need to be edited if you plan on walking around the Corner to the Side Deck.

Not sure there is a good solution in Chief to get everything right unfortunately , CA doesn't add a Sill plate to the Top of Full Masonry Walls ( eg Brick or CMU/Block) AFAIK for the Roof framing to land on. I thought CA treated Brick walls slightly differently but that maybe only in regards to their alignment with walls above and below. Not quite sure how you quoted me as saying that Glenn , that was Rik's Comment... but thanks for the Tip on the Single Wall layer Issue and recessing Windows

Then you are in luck , it is a new Feature in X11, Notes Schedules .....public Beta was released yesterday , if you have SSA , see the Upgrade Button in your Digital Locker...

Move it down into the Main Layer ..... delete any layers you don't need ...see my Pic above below of the Wall definition Or Save the wall type from my plan to your Library , then draw a short length in your Plan and then you'll find it in the Wall types dropdown and can assign it to the existing walls ...assuming it works for your Build? You may need a framing Layer and drywall too? ( you can then delete the short wall, when done). M. should look like this:

Kbird are you using X11? Double Brick Wall Plan_X10.plan Thought you might say that so here is X10 you can get x11 if you have SSA *** the Brick Mould is from the Azek Library , so you may need to install it if you want a True Brick Mould.

This is the one I made above Double Brick 9in with Plaster Wall.calibz

Sorry I didn't mean to confuse the issue with my joke about the 2" thick house wrap , I knew it should be an Insulation Air Gap and he was just in a hurry. M.

and recess to the MAIN Layer =

Generally you quote someone to reply to them directly or use their name as you see Glen doing just above to us both...... No quote or name would generally just be a comment in general to all , but then some don't follow the Quote or use of name convention either, but quoting someone usually mean they get notified of your Post and you may get a response faster by doing so. M.

I guess it is..... they make that HouseWrap real thick in AZ I see

Upgrade button in your digital locker ...it has fooled a few....

it's not a wall definition issue is it? being a double brick wall?

Hi Glenn , I do have the Icon to toggle it on off sorry , I meant I wish in Preferences we could set say 6 values, 1/8>1" for example and then by clicking the Icon it would toggle through them...ideally the Icon would show the setting eg 1/4" M.

Same for me , playing and practising with other Users plans forces me to pick stuff up and I retain it better.....reading a dry technical text book can be a bit hard , doing is better for me too M.

That's controlled by the snap grid, ( and allowable angles) not his Edit>Snap Defaults .....which I think you were referring to earlier. I wish we had a toggle Icon for this to change it on the Fly more easily depending on what I am doing. M.
