Only issue with this that I can see is that in the 3D view the base molding doesn't wrap around the inside edge of the doorway. This I agree with. Seems like without any trim this would be obvious.

I have noticed that too. I haven't worried too much about it.

Nice. Shane

Thanks for the update Jim.

What is the best way to display low and high windows in a wall when they are different sizes? Seems like I have seen something on this, but I can't find it. Thanks

True rafter tails..... I have found that that Chief draws the blocking for some but not all... I haven't isolated why yet.

I have X16 and I had no issue downloading them. Try grabbing them from the website.

To me the Magic Mouse is too laid back for cad work. I use Logitech mouse MX Series mouse and I have always been happy with the precision. In addition, I have used check dell wired mice that I have had good luck with as well. Just thinking about using a MM in Chief stresses me out AND I don't know of any settings that would make the MM a viable option for me.

The only way I can think of to accomplish that is to change the jamb material of the opening to brick and make the jamb thickness the same as your brick thickness. You would also want to remove the casing unless that is a brick detail. Doing that should display in plan how you are wanting it to. Worth a try anyway.

Ninja move. I wish I had thought of it.

I have used Softplan and Chief and so far Chief is superior even with all of the issues. I have learned that certain constraints exist in all of the 3d applications with object modeling.... I surmise its because of the logic built into the intelligence of the software that govern the directives. For me, the same things that make my life easier in Chief, in other ways complicate things. Its just a matter of figuring out what directives to adjust to achieve the desired outcome. your file is in X17, so I can't open. In your posted photo, it looks like your framing is rendering taller than your trim. I would check the structure panel under the Roof dbx, to see what your structure thickness is set to. Hang in there.

Thanks for posting your plan file, is the last of the mohican?

I have run into something similar before. On the upper side wall, click on the wall and use the "Edit Wall Layer Intersection" tool. it will give you additional edit grips on the wall to alter the layers. in this case, you would grab the grip closest to the exterior, probably on the siding, and pull the material in the direction of where the finishes are missing. give it a go and let us how it goes.

Is "No Room Definition" Checked in the wall DBX? If so, uncheck it.

I don't know about a catalog, but you could check https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/by/sketchupcontentlibrary and check for a specific item.
