No issues on either new or existing.

Steve, are you using jamb extensions on your build/design? What you are revealing is the drywall. If you use jamb extensions or want to show it as such then make window frame fit to wall. Then you would use positive number for reveal. In the attachment jamb on left is your window untouched and on right is frame fit to wall with 3/8" reveal also recessed to sheathing layer.

What David and Michael said. You may want to make sure you don't have negative values for overlap of frame or it protrudes into window space. 3/4" frame minus the overlap is your reveal.

When I clicked on image in last post this is what I get. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/3639-checkbox-to-view-rail-postsbetter-rail-post-manipulation/

For your columns delete top ones and set the height of bottom ones to what you had for the top ones and they will be one continuous column. For the sloped ceiling uncheck has ceiling in room structure dbx. Alternative if you don't want ceiling on underside of roof would be to put two ceiling planes over veranda.

I get all the same issues and I have not run the new update yet so don't think it is that. When I print layout to PDF only the live view page has plants showing. They vanish on the other views no matter how I print - b/w or greyscale. In colour printing they show on PDF.

You can make windows bigger. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00448/modifying-a-bay-bow-or-box-window-component.html Not sure what you mean by getting rid of some of the framing.

Post the plan jberd, pretty sure there will be more help to come if you do.

Make sure the the room type didn't change to garage when you were editing walls. Maybe put floor in the room to see if it keeps the height.

How about a screenshot of the offending room structure dbx. Have you checked the plan defaults or wall default top & bottom heights?

Yes Michael that is what I assumed as well. As far as I know, we cannot "flair" the ramp, instead it has parallel sides.

Here's a thought that would solve it. Rotate plan 90 degrees and send to layout then rotate in layout. the labels work then. Looks wrong in plan but correct in layout.

Unless I am mistaken ramps are parallel so no to your question. You could use p solids and solid subtraction to create the floor.

I thought it might be same issue as this https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/9338-rotate-room-labels/?hl=%2Blayout+%2Brotate I tried in a plan and sent to layout and rotated and no go. On the bright side if you use circle, square, octagon or diamond you won't have issue lol.

Thanks Michael. One of those you do things one way and forget there are multiple ways to get things done moments.

This is what I see.

Roz, it shows on plot plan and default set when I looked at it. I assume you will be adjusting what seems to be your property lines to their correct location.

Michael, draw a poly line with overhang length, slope(whatever pitch you require) and vertical for your height. Start with your lowest pitch and change the slope. The resulting length of the vertical will be what you want I believe. Just repeat for the pitches that you want. This would assume your horizontal line is Top of Plate height. I think that would give you what you want if I understand correctly. No approximating because vertical line length will be exact. Only thing you need to do is adjust the slope angle and maintain 90 degrees on vertical.

I would just use a round post without footing. If you need the cross timber then just use general framing or p solid for that.

If you want to just show floor plans and elevations etc.. without the 3d views just load pdf on the tablet. I usually load some pics of raytraces of different views but show a pdf for plans. I used to take the laptop but clients think making plans is real easy if you start shifting walls etc.. they don't always understand that it takes more than that to create the plans.

Joey the exterior casing overlap will affect the lintel. Set exterior casing to 0 and uncheck then use what I have in the attachments for lintel and shutter.

I believe you are limited to what you see. However you can switch the window to be a double casement or triple if that works for you. The other option would be to put your own walls and windows as needed.

Make sure plan is closed and use "more reply options" beside the green "post" to access the attachments dialogue. If it's too big may want to zip it.

Could also use custom offset in dbx, but then you will have space between frame and shutter. You could specify the height to be less and offset from bottom accordingly.

If lintel extend is set to 0" should have no issues.
