  1. It seemed that a number of the new features were in response to forum suggestions. That impressed me.
  2. Not sure. I suppose you could turn off for all and then go back and manually add the fillers where you need them? Maybe others know a better way?
  3. I think you need to turn off auto cabinet fillers in cabinet defaults:
  4. Thanks Mark for the input. In the end I wound up making a 3D face as roof infill. Can't say the endpoint snapping was easy though. Jim
  5. Alan, I took a stab at it. Attached. 1) I put a break in the level 2 exterior wall (at corner where the split level occurs). 2) Full height exterior stucco wall here. 3) You had a gap between roof plane edge and stucco wall. I moved roof in. 4) Changed wall type here to be Interior-4 if roof plane abuts (wall with pony wall). Jim RHK DD V1a.zip
  6. Greetings, I'm trying to model an existing roof that has some funky roof plane infills where a bunch of dissimilar roofs come together. You can see it below, sort of sloped triangular roof planes: Here's where I'm at. So far so good... So, I want to fill in at spots (1) and (2) below. I thought I'd use the 3D face tool for the first time and call it a day (seemed easier than trying to do it with roof planes). But, I'm having trouble snapping to the right 3D points in 3D view with the 3D Face tool. Any tips? Is the 3D Face tool the right hammer for this nail? Thanks again, Jim
  7. Very clever - thanks for teaching something new! Jim
  8. Try repairing the install via Windows Control Panel:
  9. Thanks DBC. Super helpful as always. Jim
  10. Tyler, Super helpful as always. Thanks again - learned something new. Jim
  11. I was messing around with the settings and somehow my auto roof got deleted and now won't regenerate. Probably something simple, but can't figure it out. Plan attached. Any insight greatly appreciated. Thanks again, Jim GRADY - AS-BUILTS.plan
  12. It's not normal. I had problems with my first install of X17. You might consider doing a repair installation:
  13. Thanks Shane for looking into this. It did not have a stretch plane. But, I figured it out. I had based the panel on an original Chief "diamond rail panel," which I just resized to make wider. However, the original Chief square shape carried through even though I had resized it (?). The fix was I (re-)converted the panel to a millwork symbol and that worked. Jim
  14. Hello - I have a deck railing with posts spaced 6 feet on center. I have a Chippendale railing infill panel about 72" x 33" in size. I'd like one panel per post spacing (stretched), but for some reason the Chief makes the panel infill square in size with 2 per post spacing... Any tips to correct this would be appreciated. Thanks again, Jim
  15. There's a Knowledge Base article on solariums. Might be useful for this. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00454/creating-a-solarium.html
