No problem Larry. Now, I just wonder what the purpose of that layer is? Is it to represent in plan the wall cleanup? Jim

Larry, Check this layer:

You might be able to get a pretty good representation by using an offset pocket door. I attached a PLAN file so you can take a look at the settings. TEST BYPASS BARN.plan

One option -- you can manually reposition the label. Just grab its little handle (red dot) and place where it has no conflict:

Wouldn't an overlap at jambs and headers (item 2) by itself fulfill the requirement? Don't need to worry about weatherstripping or flashing at all if I read this correctly. I'd think this would be easiest option as overlap is pretty common on sectional doors.

You don't have to use it. Just unselect the file management option and continue on as before...

Chief replied. Looks like they are doing some cleanup and housekeeping. They recommend what Charles suggested above. Jim

Tech support ticket submitted. I'll report back once Chief replies. Jim

Thanks for confirming. - Jim

Shayne, I see you can schedule out 3D exterior vs 3D interior elevations. This is a window schedule from X17. Is the issue related to this maybe? Jim

Same with bathtubs. No bathtub / faucet combos...

I updated my X17 core catalog just now. Looks like all the sinks with faucets have been deleted or relocated (?). Anybody know where they went? As reference, X16 had 111 results: X17 has 58 results. Looks like sink/faucet combos have disappeared...

Update - there was a big X17 update today. I looked at the change log notes and it appears they corrected this. Nice! Jim

Have you tried outputting using different print driver(s), such as built-in Chief driver? If you get the same result, then you've likely excluded the print driver as the culprit.

Lane, Is it this?

You might be able to use a keyboard remapping tool outside of Chief. Windows 11 has it through Power Toys. I have not used it, but you might check it out.

I wasn't at all aware of this requirement. But, makes sense. Learned something today! Thanks, Jim

BTW, you can edit your signature in your account settings:

The last programming I did was a Fortran class at the local JC in (I think) 1985. It's been a while. In case you didn't know, there's a fun Ruby tutorial built in to the Chief Ruby console. Just hit the tutorial button. It happens within the console, so is a lot like interacting with a 1970s terminal hooked up to a mainframe. Anyways, I got up to chapter 15. Give it a try if you haven't yet.

Thanks. It worked!

Thanks. I'll take a look at this. Started reading a little in the manual about Ruby. A little hard to wrap my brain around! Jim

Thank you. Will do.

Good morning, I thought I'd get fancy (i.e. try to learn something new) and have my plan marker report back the room subfloor elevation instead of typing in manual text like I always do. Result: It reports back in inches. Anybody know how to get this to report back in feet + inches? You can point me to a forum thread or video if easier. Was not sure what key phrase to search for. Thanks in advance, Jim

It's a Windows thing: Find your Chief program icon. Right click it and got to "Properties." Make sure the box below is unchecked. Mine is from Windows 11. Windows 10 should be very similar.

You can't work with X17 files in older versions to best of my knowledge.
