So KBird1 was nice enough to solve my original problem (see topic posted yesterday) of furring being in the wall layer instead of sheetrock. Unchecking the "framing" radio box associated with the drywall layer did that. The problem that's now popped up is that furring is being generated inside the 3.5" framing layer. It shows up in both plan view and in framing overview perspectives. There's no rhyme or reason to its placement, as it displays inside of or through a normal framing member, or through a shower niche. Turning off the framing radio box of materials property on the actual framing layer, gets rid of both general framing members, PLUS the furring pieces.

Thank you. That did the trick. I have no idea how that was checked, nor that that section would make the program behave that way.

Trying to figure out why the program is applying 1/2" x 1.5" furring to my interior walls... Walls type defined as the original "Interior-4 wall" that ships with the program. Wall type definition shows 1/2" drywall / 3 1/2" framing / 1/2" drywall as the layers with the total thickness at 4 1/2" Furring displays in any framing view and wall thickness measured is 4" (furring & framing) Displays in plan view with drywall one side, and furring on the other side and wall thickness is 4 1/2" (drywall / 3.5" framing / furring) If I build 'framing, Wall', it appears the furring (in plan view) is shown as a line that matches the drywall line on the other side, but the furring sticks out funny at my 45 deg wall corners If I take camera views before 'build framing', the walls appear normal When I build framing, and then take a camera view, only a sheet of drywall appears, with a gap where the framing and drywall should reside. (molding, electrical, etc are hanging in space) This is for a remodel, and I have the rest of the house drawn making the file too big to send here. I will delete the existing house and just leave the addition and upload here. The program is doing this to all interior walls. *** When I deleted everything extraneous to get the file small enough, it shows the drywall in camera view but still has furring sticking out at the 45 deg corners (wall other side of sink) As a side note, if anyone knows a good way to display trusses for flat roofs with parapets, I'm all ears. I've figured out a way to get the roofing to display correctly, but trying to get trusses to work with slope and parapet walls is alluding me.

Nevermind..... long day. Just realized I was in the layout folders, and not the plan folders for this job.

Did they change how notes are handled? According to all the online videos, the best practice is to put the Notes Schedules in a CAD Detail folder. When I try to do that, the schedules dropdown is greyed out and doesn't allow me to place a schedule in the folder. It works fine if I'm in floor plan view (or others), but that makes my drawings crowded with all the different schedules. Am I missing something? Using X15 version on this one

Thank you sir.. that did the trick. Don't know why Chief treats a monolithic differently in layers, but it worked.

As an update... If I rebuild the foundation as Stem and Wall, it displays normally in Elevations and Cross sections. Rebuilding the foundation and changing it back to monolithic, it will build the foundation, I can see it on floor level 0, see it in floor perspective, but won't display on cross sections and elevations.

Using X15 version for this plan. My cross section/elevations both normal and back-clipped will not display the monolithic slab. It will show up on 3D full overview and on foundation overview. The footings under the columns in the back do show up in elevation views, but do not display on the foundation level. I have foundation, footings, walls foundation, CAD foundation all checked in Active Layer Display. If I start a new plan of a simple room with monolithic footing in ver X15, that foundation as well doesn't display. Changing the foundation to Footing and Stem, it will display. If I jump to X16 and do a simple house with monolithic footing, the foundation will display in cross sections and elevations. Can't upload file as it's 23MB and is too large for ChiefTalk
