Pretty unconventional door schedule in my opinion. Never seen one like it. Seems problematic to group doors with different swings and locations together. One good reason to schedule out doors individually and not group together (unlike windows) is doors very often have different hardware groups despite the door leaf / swing being same. Anyways, I get the sense the architect is very particular about this and may not be flexible. I'll defer to other forum users who have more schedule experience. They might be able to make it work. On the other hand, maybe you could propose a similar schedule that is close in appearance and information and maybe she'll accept it? Good luck! Jim

Does this work for you (x17)? I was able to get this result with the standard Object Specific Macros. It does include the inches mark, but I'd argue that makes it crystal clear with no room for interpretation. Jim

Post this in Seeking Services for a better response.

Ok, here's some more: I made a duplicate of the stair and then tweaked it to show posts only. In other words, two stairs on top of each other with different settings to achieve the desired look. Not sure if this is Chief "pure", but my best attempt.

Was able to approximate the look of curved panel infill by setting newel spacing to 12" o.c. and then setting the newel thickness to 1/16" so that they disappear (material can be set to "air"). Not sure about actual guard post placement. Maybe manually? Anyways, maybe you can finesse to make work...

Yes (X17) -- just uncheck "Flat Sides" under Toe Kicks.

I don't think it's an option or at least I haven't seen it. Other programs offer this, e.g. Autocad: Why don't you make the feature suggestion to Chief under "suggestions." Maybe they'll add it for X18. Jim

I think they are here under the "buttons" folder:

Yes. Watch the Chief stair tutorial videos for more info. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/71/stair-basics.html?playlist=89

This might help: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00709/creating-a-sign-with-3d-lettering.html Also, if you have access to Autocad, it's possible to explode text into a polyline using Express Tools which you can then extrude if I recall correctly. You could import this into Chief I imagine.

Good morning, Can anybody confirm if concentric resize works on stair plans? I drag a stair width handle while holding down "c" and the opposite side does not resize as I'd expect. I could be doing it wrong, but if this does not in fact work I can post it to the suggestion list for improvements. Thanks, Jim

Henry, U-shaped flashing at the top of siding sounds wrong, but a little hard to tell from the photos. In any case, James Hardie website has details available showing proper installation which should give you direction:

I recommend contacting tech support. You've paid for the service. They are usually very responsive. Jim

Mark, Thanks for helping me with this. I'll give it a try. Jim

I think the trick is to balloon frame that end gable wall.
