Well, thought I had it figured out, but guess not.

All good, watched the training video again and picked up on how to remove a extension line

Yes, I figured out that one out to get to the center of the openings, but what I am more interested in is when you dimension using auto exterior dimensioning, the first string is for the openings if I am correct, but if you happen to have a interior wall between those 2 openings, it will dimension from lets say, start of dimension, to center of opening, to center of next opening, then to side of interior partition to center of next opening. I want to get rid of the one where the dimension line is broke from the interior wall. Same with the interior dimensioning, if you are within you distance, it will pick up the center of all interior openings, but as soon as you get outside the distance, it will not pick up the interior openings, which gives you some dimension strings with the opening dimensioned and others not Wish I knew how to attach thumbnail or file to better explain myself, but haven't got that far yet

While dimensioning a plan, I have noticed that while using auto exterior dimensioning, the first string of dimensions are the openings, second string is the interior partitions and jogs of the exterior walls and the final string is the total exterior length. What I am trying to get is the first string to only dimension to the centers of all the openings only and not break at the intersecting interior partitions, the continue to the next opening. Is there a way to set this up so the first dimension string dimensions to the openings only and stop at any exterior jogs?

I am hoping you guys have some patients with me here. I have purchased the Chief architect premier and am using versionX7 at the moment, and am finally getting back to trying to figure things out following a busy year using other software. I am at the moment figuring out drawing details rather than copying them from my old system. I have a couple questions that I am hoping someone can help me with 1) is there somewhere where you can offset lines rather than copying placing and the moving them to the proper position 2) Is there somewhere where you can trim or extend a line to a different line, or is everything moved by your mouse 3) Is it possible to draw a line by typing in the x-y coordinates for the purpose of drawing a eave detail and the slope of the roof Thanking you in advance

Where do I suppress the label?

When sending my floor plan to layout, there always seems to be the text that says 1st Floor that goes with it, but it is not there prior to sending it. Is there a toggle somewhere to get rid of this?

Thank you

I had been playing around with it and deleted the roof planes, and kept the ceiling planes in and redid the roof planes and it seemed to work okay. Thanks

Okay, sort of pulling my hair out by the roots now lol. I had added a backdrop to try things out, but now I have no idea on how to get rid of it, tried searching to no avail. Can anyone help me on this?

Hoping this works rtm1-Floor Plan Image.pdf

Seems the attachment did not work, will try again

I have attached a floor plan layout. I have the interior roof planes working okay, it is just the exterior roof plans I can't figure out.

I am trying to run a cathedral roof the opposite direction of the main roof and I can not seem to find and tutorials on this. I have a jog on the front of the house, so I am able to get that okay, but am not sure as to how I split the walls in the right spots to add some planes there, or if that is even the right way to do it. I use the split wall tool, and split the rear wall, but it splits at the center of the interior wall and when I try to adjust the lengths or move the split, it disappears.

excellent, thank-you
