Thanks Shane for your input! - Jim

I have the Plot Lines Color Fill option turned on for this elevation layout box in order to show solid fill material backgrounds (black roofing, black fascia, etc.). (X17) Is it possible within Chief to print to PDF with this color fill option turned on but have the final PDF output be greyscale? Thanks, Jim BTW, this is what I'm looking for below... I was able to do this by converting the Chief PDF to greyscale with a 3rd party app. Just wondering if I can do this within Chief without resorting to workaround.

Christopher, Does this setting get what you want? Looks like it's on a per-wall basis.

If you have a later version of Chief you could look into the Material Builder tool:

You're welcome. For future reference, it'd been better if you had posted this to the General Q&A forum section. That's the right section for something like this and you'll get more eyes on it and a quicker response! Jim

Try an exterior bifold door Type. Go to Options and make some changes:

Yes - recently having issues with Adobe Reader. It would freeze up with larger PDF files and I'd have to close down with Task Manager. I figured an Adobe issue or maybe Windows. Jim

I think it's under the "Edit Layer" option:

Thanks for the insight and tips!

In addition, you used to be able to quickly turn off a room label by simply selecting it and hitting the delete key. This feature has gone away... Bummer.

You're welcome Larry. The X18 room label changes have been discussed on the forum. I think the room labels were given more features, hence the UI change. One feature that was taken away was the ability to easily pull a leader from the label text. I found that pretty useful in X17 and previous.

Larry, Select the room label and then the icon circled below:

Possible workaround: I did a pass-through window with shutters in a room divider wall then set the wall as a furred wall. Lastly, I moved the wall up against the interior face of the exterior wall. Seems to work. X18 Plan attached. Jim INTERIOR WINDOW SHUTTER TEST.plan

Very nice and good job! If you're willing, post more photos. They would be great to see. Jim
