You might consider a landing-sized skylight above with a sloped shaft toward the stair. This gets you the headroom clearance and looks intentional. The truss mfg. can design for the roof opening.

I sent in to support for their review. I'll reply back when they answer. - Jim

Thanks for confirming Dianne. I may send in as bug report. I'll see if others chime in too.

I noticed the outside corner lines of my bay window are not generating in vector view... Plan: Vector view elevation: As a test, I wondered what the result would be with exterior walls. Same result... Shallow angles (1) do not generate the elevation line, but 45 degree walls angles (2) do: Anybody know why? Is this a bug or is there a setting that controls this? Thanks again, Jim

BTW there is an Autocad equivalent, which works very well and solves this visual problem. I'd think Chief could implement something similar.

OK, I think this is a better solution: I created a fixture symbol designed to cut the wall it hangs off of. It is placed on its own dashed layer, so looks graphically acceptable in plan. Credit goes to some past forum posts (Alaskan Son et al). Updated PLAN attached. See clouded area. Jim ADOBE TIMBER LINTEL TEST.plan

Joan, I took a stab at this. I modified a Fixed Door object to serve as a timber lintel that you can manually place above a door or window. Looks good in 3D, but has a big graphical problem in plan display -- the lintel shows up and cuts the wall where it preferably would be hidden or dashed in plan display. I imagine someone smarter than me can figure this out! But, maybe this is a start. PLAN attached. Jim P.S. I was really into adobe architecture in college so this brought me back.

Very helpful. Thank you! - Jim

Hi Shane. I believe a material. PLAN attached if you are able to take a gander. - Jim SCREEN PANEL TEST.plan

Greetings, I've created a porch screen panel millwork symbol with stretch planes. When I resize the panel, my screen infill material "stretches." I would like the grid hatch to not stretch and remain at 1x1. Thanks again for any tips. Jim

You can create a terrain perimeter hole that you can manually edit to follow the stairwell. Select your terrain perimeter object and then click this option:

Glenn, Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try tomorrow! Have a great day. Jim

Seems like it. See help section:

Thank you!

Anybody having problems loading their models? Jim
