Been that way since at least X3.

This is going to be a true PITA for you to do in Chief. You can do it, but don't expect the normal automated capabilities you're used to. As Alan mentioned, you can try using roof planes, but you're going to have wall, ceiling, and floor related framing intersection issues to contend with in addtion to the plan view weirdness, and that's just for starters. I think I would personally be very inclined to model the spaces independent of the walls and then model the walls manually possibly using an actual wall as a starting point and then converting it to a symbol. Again, its all doable, but not easy. I would personally plan on just doing the minimum and patching details with CAD as necessary otherwise you could easily sink a couple days into making all perfect.

In X12, your best bet is probably to just place Notes referencing each different pier and pad. Then you can simply use a custom Note Schedule as a Pier Schedule

It sounds like your using a Temporary Point and not a Point Marker. The Temporary Point is what I had first suggested but my simplified instructions were using a Point Marker instead. I just realized that method would be more user friendly and make for easier step by step instructions.

You have to Extract or Unzip the files before you'll be able to import them. They import just fine for me though...

Try this (slightly modified from my original suggestion for ease of use): Plan A: Pick a very specific point in your plan that both plans have in common,. Lets just say its the Northwest corner of your exterior walls but it can be whatever you want it to be. This will be your Reference Point Use the Point Marker tool and place a Point Marker at that Reference Point. Select that same Point Marker and Cut to your clipboard. Plan B: Paste Hold Position. This shows exactly where your Plan A Reference Point is located. Activate the Edit Area (All Floors) tool and draw a marquee large enough to select everything in your plan. Click the Point to Point Move tool. With your first click, select your Plan B Reference Point (same Northwest corner of your exterior walls). With the second click, select your Plan A Reference Point. Find and delete that temporary point marker.

I suggest using the Edit Area to relocate everything in one of your plans to match the same coordinate location as your other plan. Just place a Temporary Point at a specific location that's easy to reference and then use Point to Point Move to move everything in your entire plan to that same reference.

Impossible to say for certain what's going on without a plan file, or some plan view images with dimensions at a bare minimum.

Yeah, I agree. May not even need a corner sink. Depending on how much room there is, might even be able to use a pedestal sink or even a standard vanity cabinet. Here's a similar one we recently did...

Okay, I opened in X16 and see what you mean. If it were me and I were stuck using X16, I would have your other polylines report to a Custom Schedule category. I think that is more fitting anyway since they're being used for a unique purpose.

… but yes, you should upgrade.

I don’t see why it would be doing that in X16 either. I will try to open it in next 16 when I get back to the office.

What version are you using? That skylight is not in the schedule when I open in X17...

For solid colors In Chief we essentially have Material Colors (which you have turned off), Solid Fills, and Background Colors. Presumably because Materials already have a color, the Solid Fill style and Background settings are only available for CAD based objects. For your 3D materials, you're stuck using the Material Color (which again you have turned off) with the option of using a Pattern (line work) on top of that. I think the closet thing you'll get to doing what you want is to just use a hatch pattern with very close spacing. That being said, this pattern would be applied to every other camera view type that shows your pattern as would the solid fill style IF you could choose it. You can of course also just draw in some closed polylines at those limited locations if you really want that specific look.
