Try placing the sinks into the floor plan by themselves and then dragging them on top of the cabinet. You could also use two cabinets but personally I prefer the separate sinks. See if using cabinet "feet" work better than using a toekick.

I didn't have a lot of time to play with it but it looks to me like the upper portion of the wall is being built automatically by Chief. They look like they are aligned properly but it looks like it is too long by the thickness of the drywall. If you turn on the reference display in plan view you should be able to see how the walls are lined up but stick out past the lower ones. This might actually be a bug because I can't think of a reason why the program would do this so you might want to send it in. You might be able to get around the problem by manually editing the wall. Not sure if you have to do anything else so it doesn't get rebuilt though. There might be other ways to solve it so maybe someone else has some good ideas.

Have you tried using the "align with floor below" tool for the the wall on the 2nd floor? If this doesn't show or doesn't fix the problem, you should post the plan.

Have you tried changing the "schedule number start"? It's under "labels" when you open the schedule.

Don't forget that the delete objects tool will let you choose "single room" and then you can just click inside any room to only delete stuff for that room instead of the whole plan. You can only do this while the dialog is still open so it works a bit different then most of the other dialogs.

You could make a custom door symbol that has the lock built in. Just place the door you want in a blank plan, Then place the lock you want and position it where you want. Now convert the whole thing into a new cabinet door symbol.

Can you see them in plan view? If you can't see them, then maybe the layer is turned off or you are using a bad line style or color. If you can see them, then maybe the layer is locked. The other problem I have run into is that I sometimes have to zoom in and click exactly in the center instead of just clicking on anything else you can see. Another way of getting rid of them is using the "delete objects" tool. This will let you delete all of them at once, or just for a single floor, or just for any room you want. If none of this helps, then you might need to post the plan.

I think all you need to do is go to the floor below and delete it using the "delete current floor" tool.

My favorite Tiger is a '67.

Sloped how? Your fascia will be sloped on a gable end and you can also set your eaves to be "square cut" instead of "plumb cut" but I am guessing that you want something else. Maybe post a picture of what you are trying to do?

If you change the display in one view and another view changes than that almost always means that they are using the same "saved plan view" or same "layer set". Here are some training materials that might help: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/2421/saved-plan-views.html https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-03185/understanding-saved-plan-views.html

Maybe not way back in the dark ages of X5. Might need to just change your screen resolution to something smaller.

You could try this: - Select one room. - Use the "expand room polyline tool". - Use the "make room polyline tool". - Use the "convert polyline" tool. - Make it a "material region". It should have a continuous material/pattern. You can adjust the material properties if you want to change the angle or offsets.

If something doesn't change color when the layer color is changed, then it either means it is not using the layer you think it is, or you are not using the layer set you think you are, or the object is set to not use the layer color ("by layer" is unchecked). For the first two, the ALDO will show you the layer settings for the current layer set. For the last, just looking at the line style page will tell you. There are other more obscure cases I have seen but they are much less likely.

Usually solid railings won't do that. Would help to post the plan so someone could poke around in it.

You can "zip" it which will make a compressed archive file that is much smaller. You can do a save as and delete all of the stuff that doesn't have anything to do with the problem. Sometimes you even get lucky when you are deleting things because the problem actually goes away giving you a big clue what is causing it. Or, you can post it on the cloud (like dropbox or google drive) and then include a link to it. As for the phantom object, it might be a fascia like Mick suggested. If you select the camera in plan view, it will usually show you where the cutting plane is and this can help you tell if it is going through an object you didn't expect. Turning on all layers in plan view can help with problems like this. Sometimes you have to look at other floors as well because you can have objects with wrong heights that can show up unexpected places in camera views.

I would probably make it with a poly solid. This old thread has some good tips:

My guess is it is something else in your plan that has nothing to do with your cabinets. Can you see it in any other camera views? Can you click on it? I bet if you posted your plan someone could find it pretty quick.

Did you already look here: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/training/ And here: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/ And especially here: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/#playlist-138

I agree with Chop, sounds like the selection fill color was changed in preferences. You will get the room highlight automatically if you are in a mode like the fill style painter, layer painter, or one of the eyedroppers.

Not that I have found. Maybe @MarkMc knows a way to do it? He always seems to figure out clever ways to hack cabinets to do what he wants.

Works ok for me with a simple test plan. I just dropped a doorway in and removed the casing and jamb. You might need to post your plan so someone can poke around in it.

You can use "reset message boxes" in preferences and it should bring it back. It will also bring back all of your other suppressed messages though.

Why not just use the ramp tool?

Schedules will group things based on the info shown in the schedule. So my guess is that the info on the row for your drawer base matches the info for your regular base cabinet. You need to add a column or some other info that makes the rows different, such as the standard label.
