Thanks - will do. Jim

This is great. Thanks! To all those brave pioneers / early X17 adopters, any issues (e.g. stability, etc.)? I'm anxious to upgrade, but I thought I'd ping the group before I make the leap. Jim

Robert, Success! I added a finish layer to the underside of the floor assembly to patch things up like you suggested. Thanks! Jim

Good morning, I have an exterior balcony (1) over a framed pop-out fireplace (2) with a manual roof plane that is affecting the balcony's soffit finish (3). Pretty sure this is because I'm building a room over a roof plane, which I believe Chief does not like judging by the forums. Any setting I can use to fix this, or should I just patch it with a 3D solid for example? Thanks again, Jim

Follow-up to this... Chief responded and said they would review: Hi Jim, Thank you for contacting Chief Architect Support. I tested it a bit myself, and it does look like custom muntins load in a bit inconsistently based on their position/angle. I'll go ahead and report this to our developers, and let you know what they say, or whether this is something they end up needing to fix.

Thanks Robert for looking at this. I sent this in yesterday to tech support. To me it seems like it should just build to the centerline. If Chief has a follow-up, I'll post the reply. Jim

Thanks for quick response. I will do so. - Jim

Does anybody know why the load CAD block / custom muntin tool you use on window lites does not build the custom muntins to the centerline of the linework? Is there a workaround for this or am I doing something wrong? Pics below. Thanks, Jim Before: After loading CAD block to window:

Gene, You can edit the material names directly. Just go to edit material and rename it. Below, I revised "drywall" to "gypsum board":

Lisa, My first guess is make a copy of your wall type and then apply the wall siding extension to that new wall type. Use the new wall type only where you want this condition. Jim

Thanks for your input. - Jim

I think you might be looking for Depth Cue?

I have a pretty complex basement foundation wall with existing masonry below and stud framing above. In addition, there's new interior full height furring. A lot going on: I show the upper wall in plan, but I wanted to also clarify in plan what's going on below. Then, it occurred to me I can just break the wall for a short length and switch that pony wall section to "Display in Plan View" to show the lower wall. A couple of CAD break lines and I'll wrap up by adding a plan note to clarify... Nothing earth shattering, but I thought pretty nifty. Jim

Similar card, newer driver. No problems.

Who said I was working?
