Instead of deleting your post, you could always add the answer for the next person that runs into this.

Are your doors actually low enough to make a cutout in the foundation walls?  If they are, then you should probably post your plan.

On that note, camera callouts don't have all the same controls that normal callouts have.  Would be nice if they did though.

@LukeMathew12 I am going to assume that you are just a clanker.  If not, then I apologize for the mistake but it really doesn't make sense to make a post where you just repeat what has already been said.

I am guessing that you were using X10 or maybe Version 10 since there was no C10 that I know of.  In either case, the older the plan, the more problems you will see when you bring it into the latest version.  At some point, it might be less frustrating to just draw it over using all of the new defaults.

It is possible to change your wall type so that you can extend the siding down to cover the floor trusses (look under layer properties in the wall type dialog) but normally you should not need to do this.  Not sure what would cause this problem in an old plan though.

Might be best to post your plan so someone can poke around in it.  

The text used by the callout is controlled by the text style used by the layer it is on.

Go into the kitchen and bath view, select the camera.  Look at the ALDO (active layer display options).  It will tell you what layer the camera is using and what text style the layer is using.  Do the same thing in the working plan view.  If they are using different text styles, then the text will look different.  If you want them to look the same, you will need to set them to use the same text style.

It looks like you have turned off "automatic" for the callout size as well.  You might want to turn that back on because it looks pretty silly with the callout text outside of the callout.

Are you actually using the last update to X16 (26.3.0)?  I just took a look at the old update notes and it looks like they thought they fixed this. Seems a bit unfair to come back a year and a half later and complain about it now. 

You might want to see what it looks like in X17 and if you are still seeing the problems then you should probably report them to Chief (instead of just a forum rant).  I don't think there is much hope they are going to release any more updates to X16 but I would think that X17 updates are still possible since they just released one a couple of weeks ago.

Yes, that is definitely a tech support issue.

The arrowhead fill looks fine with line weights turned off.  Can't see the fill with the line weights turned on because the lines are too thick.

Even though the polyline is marked as having a line weight of 0, I think the arrow cad block is overriding the polyline settings for some reason. I didn't have much time to see if I could find a solution but maybe someone else can.

Try "tools->checks->referenced plans".  In theory, it should show you all of your external references.

What does the error message say?

They also have a video, not sure if it covers all of the same stuff as the tech article since it is only 2 minutes long:

Your new "bold" arrowhead just looks like a thick line.  Unless it is a closed polyline, with an open area inside of it, you can't use a fill style.  If it is a proper polyline that can have a fill, you might want to post your plan so someone can play with the settings.

I like to use the "save as template" tool.  Here is a tech article that might help:

You can get pretty close using a "fixed door" by setting the bottom of the frame larger and making 2 vertical lites.  If you need it to look more accurate, you would need to use a door symbol.

You can either make the plan smaller or post it somewhere on the cloud and put a link to it here.  To make a plan smaller, you can try making a compressed archive (zip) of just the plan file (rather than the whole project which usually has stuff you don't need).  Need to make sure you do this when the plan is not open in the program otherwise it might not work.  If it is still too big, then make a copy of the plan and then delete the stuff that isn't part of the problem, especially things like fixtures, furniture, terrain, etc..  The "delete objects" tool is a good way of getting rid of things in a plan.  Sometimes when you delete things the problem goes aways which can give you a clue about what is causing the problem.

What and how are you changing things?  Are you editing your elevation lines or are you trying to add new stuff? Lot's of different things you could be doing that can have different effects.

Do you have auto rebuild terrain turned on?  If not, then you will need to manually rebuild the terrain any time you make any changes.

I don't think you can make a pocket window without making a pocket door.  It is very easy to make it show up in the window schedule though.  Just open your pocket door, go to the schedule page, and change the "include in schedule as" to be a window type.

Always best to post pictures instead of pdfs because pdfs have to be downloaded first to view them.

Assuming that your window is set to exactly 1/2" less than the nominal size (as in 31.5" instead of 32"), and your dimensions are rounding to the nearest 1/16", and your dimensions are actually locating the sides of the window (instead of accidently locating something else), I can't come up with a case where that might happen.  Even if your window is at some random distance along the wall, the window size should always be spot on. 

Probably best to post the plan files so that people can look into them to see what is going on.  Just an FYI, plan files usually need to be made smaller to post on the forum or posted somewhere else online with a link to them.  If you are trying to make a plan smaller, you can try making a zip file and if that is not small enough you can make a copy and delete things that have nothing to do with the problems.

I have no problem opening plans posted here.  I always use "file open" from within the program and avoid using double-click on downloaded files though.  I have never heard of anyone posting any plans with viruses here so I am not even sure if that is possible.

The width of your polyline is exactly 4 2/3".  I assume that you set it this way on purpose just to play with the dimensions.

You can't represent 2/3 exactly as a decimal number because it repeats forever which is why you will see "66667" as the last numbers.  

If you round your dimensions to the nearest 1/16, 1/32, 1/64, or even 1/128, then it won't be exact because none of these numbers are divisible by 3.  This is why you will get things like 11/16 or 21/32 because those are the closest values you can get to 2/3.

When you click on a dimension value to edit it, I think the program will always try and show you the most accurate number it can.  Personally, I think this is a good thing and I wish dialog boxes would do this too.  I sometimes use the "number style" button to change the display to decimal inches just so that I can see the "real" values instead of the rounded ones.

It is interesting that sometimes it shows you the exact fraction and sometimes the nearest decimal value but I don't think that is something to worry much about.  I would be far more worried about what the dimension displays as in the plan view and if you want it to be accurate then you will need to change the 4 2/3" to something that can be represented accurately for however you want to display them.

Lot's of things might be going on.  Should probably post the plan so someone can poke around in it.

You will probably need to make a compressed zip file to post it and might even need to delete things that have nothing to do with the problems (like fixtures and furniture).  If it is still too big, you can always post it online somewhere we can download it.

That was going to be my first guess.  Doors will always use the higher floor of the two rooms.

FYI, you don't actually need to resend the view.  You can open the layout box dialog and change the view type there.

Assuming that those cabinets are the same width, then it looks to me like the only problem is that they are just not aligned with each other.  Some times you can get them to snap together by moving one of them farther away first, letting go of it, and then when you move it back look for the object snaps to get them back aligned.  Another thing that can help is to use the point-to-point move tool or maybe even the center object tool.  Another way that can work is to drag one of the cabinet corners using the middle mouse button to snap to the other cabinet corner.  

Are you in a camera view when you are trying to toggle it?

You might get better answers on the Home Designer forum here:

Not sure if you mean V10 (which is really, really old now) or X10 (which is still old), but you might be able to do it with the transform/replicate dialog.  You can place a current point at the center of the arc and then set the number of copies, using a relative rotate angle, and then select "about current point".

The other way you could do this is use a distributed path.  This in my opinion might be better because then you could adjust them much easier later if needed and a path could be an arc, spline, or any other shape you need.
