I don't think I ever saw temp dimensions for electrical fixtures. I just fired up my old X12 and they're not there. You should be able to create them manually though.

Are you printing to a pdf? Are you using the Chief Architect "save as pdf" tool? In any case, it might be a problem with the print drivers. You could try posting your plan to see if someone gets the same results as you. They might also be able to figure out if you did something wrong or a way you can fix it. Here is a very generic tech article about printing to pdf: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00768/creating-a-pdf-document.html Here is one that has some info about using other pdf print drivers: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00483/pdf-print-driver-information.html

You could open up the layout file, click on the layout box you want to relink, and then find the file you want to link it to. You could also go to the "tools" menu and find the "referenced plan files" tool under the "layout" section.

Best to post a new topic instead of bring a 9 year old thread back from the dead. You should just be able to right-click on the library object, use the "open object" tool to open the dialog, go to the "object information" page, and type in the code you want.

Do you have any walls on hidden layers? They will still get framing even when you can't see the wall in plan view. You should probably post your plan for problems like this. Might need to make a copy and delete a bunch of stuff to get it small enough to attach to the forum. Should probably zip it as wall but you need to make sure the plan is not open when you do this. Another thing you could do is post in on a cloud service to share.

The simplest way to get your sloped ceiling is to let the program automatically build the roof and then open up the room dialog and turn off the ceiling. This will allow you to see the underside of the roof on the inside of your room. If it is too steep, then just change the pitch of the roof.

You need to put in a "complete break" instead of a normal break. What you have now is one stair section with 2 sub-sections and you need two different stair sections. Once you have two stair sections you can make them different widths. Here is some more info: https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/25690-stairs-complete-break-tool/

Did you have the plan open in Chief when you tried to attach it? That can sometimes cause problems. Maybe the plan was too big. You might want to try putting it into a zip file before attaching it. As for your flared walls question, there is no simple way to just make a wall flared at the bottom like that. You might be able to get what you want by adding a molding to the wall that creates the flare. You could also just create the flare using a poly solid. In both cases, you would just set the material to the same as the wall.

The short answer is no, the regular stair won't conform to your terrain. You could probably manually adjust the heights to get what you want. Another thing you could try using is a distribution path with the railroad tie as the object. If it is set to follow terrain, it should look pretty close. I made my railroad ties below just using a soffit.

I would use a cabinet to design the panel. Cabinets in Chief are very powerful and allow a ton of customization. The ability to subdivide a face into whatever components you want and then customize the components can do so many things. You can setup stiles and rails to be whatever sizes you want with custom panels in between.

There is no built in "horizontal filler" tool but there are lots of ways to do things like this including using cabinets, shelves, partitions, soffits, polyline solids, symbols, and others. Might be best to post a picture of what you are trying to accomplish and someone might have better recommendations.

Did you modify your wall type definition? Good chance you made a mistake there. Marking the wall layer as framing or air gap can often cause problems. If not that, then you should post the plan. Also, it's better to give your post a title that describes the problem you're having. Something like "missing drywall in camera views" or whatever. You can always put your name in your signature so it shows up in all your posts.

If it's not a layer problem, then it's probably a video card problem. If you post your plan, someone could tell you for sure.

Best to post questions like this on the Q&A forum. Take a wall cabinet and set the overall size. Then change the door into an opening. Use the split vertical tool to make your dividers. You can then select the "horizontal layout" in the tree and use the "equalize" button to make them all the same size. Lot's of tech articles and videos on cabinet tools if you need more help. Here are a couple of examples: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-02945/designing-cabinet-fronts.html https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00433/creating-a-custom-wine-cabinet.html

Turn on print preview. Take a look at your settings in your drawing sheet setup. A line weight of 80 is not going to look very thick when you are zoomed that far out at that scale.
