  1. Hello, Based off of your screenshots it looks like behavior I’ve seen before when either the plan is very far from the x,y origin (0,0), or you have objects that are very far away from your design. I’m not sure how likely this is, since you seem to be experiencing it on multiple plans, but it might be worth checking. For more information please see this Knowledge Base article: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-03124/troubleshooting-origin-error-messages.html If this doesn’t seem to be the issue, or if you’d like assistance doing this, please feel free to send a copy of this plan into our Technical Support Center and we can help you resolve this.

  2. Hello, On the Build Roof Dialog you have the option for either Retain Manually Drawn Roof Planes or Retain Edited Automatic Roof Planes. The first option (Retain Manually Drawn Roof Planes) will affect any roof planes that were drawn manually by using the Roof Plane tool. This tool can be found by going to Build> Roof> Roof Plane. You can tell if a roof plane was manually drawn because it will show “Manual Roof Plane”, like it shows in your screenshot. The second option (Retain Edited Automatic Roof Planes) will affect any roof planes that were generated by the Auto Rebuild Roofs or the Build Roof Planes option, and then were manually adjusted or marked as edited. A roof plane will automatically have the “Mark as Edited” checkbox enabled if you made changes to the roof plane after it was generated. (ie. Changing its’ pitch, reshaping, repositioning, etc.). You can certainly have a mix of these roof planes in your file. You can have the ones that were automatically generated by the Build Roof tool, but you could also have some that you manually drew in using the Roof Planes tool. Based off of your screenshot I'm thinking you might have group selected your roof planes. I would instead go one by one and take note of "Mark as Edited" or "Manual Roof Plane". I hope this helps!
  3. Hello @ElicaEncheva, You can import an entire folder of images to create materials by going to 3D> Materials> Convert Textures to Materials, and then selecting the folder you’d like to import. This will then create a folder in your User Library with a material for each image that was in the selected folder. I hope this helps!
  4. Hello @jjohnny, based off of your screenshot, it looks like this may be one of the issues we were seeing in earlier version of X16 Premier. I would ensure that you are on the latest version of X16 (26.3.0.10). You can check this in the software by going to Help> Download Program Updates. If you are running 26.3.0.10 and you still see this effect in your plan, or would like help updating to 26.3.0.10, I would recommend contacting Technical Support through the Technical Support Center.
