Its because you haven't defined anywhere on the terrain as anything other than -8'. You need to define somewhere as being 0' so Chief know where to slope to.

You can do as Eric showed above, but for what it’s worth, it looks to me like you probably just failed to check Evaluated for your macro named “x”. Just make sure the macro is set to Evaluated, Context: Owner, and then try again.

Not a dumb comment at all. This is exactly what I suspect is happening as well. The next thing I would suspect is that perhaps Include in Layout Page Table is not checked for any of the other sheets.

You should be able to get attic trusses if you place the required interior walls and set the ceiling height appropriately.

No. not really. You created a backclipped view meaning everything in the background was cut out of the picture. That just leaves you with whatever is between your camera and the clipping plane. Since your Cross Section Lines layer was turned off you weren't getting any lines being drawn in those areas. You're also not seeing any floor framing because the floor hasn't been framed yet (the framing layers aren't turned on either by the way). And lastly, you want see a fill for your foundation wall unless you either manually create one OR use the Auto Detail tool to create one...and again, the appropriate CAD layer needs to be turned on.

This is pretty much exactly what I would expect to see with that camera as you have it set up. The only thing missing really are the Cross Section Lines. Turn that layer on.

Try it again. It should work. You may want to open the cameras one by one and and reposition them by clicking Fill Window Building Only, but I tested it out and once the building is back at 0,0, everything works as I would expect.

I think your problem is being caused by the fact your model is about 2 miles from the origin. I would suggest you used Edit Area (All Floors) to move everything back to 0,0. I think that should fix your problem.

Make sure all the appropriate layers are turned on in that CAD Detail’s layer set. It looks to me like all your layers are turned off except for your cross-section lines layer.

Schedule tab>Show Schedule Callout

Your leader is not set to Attach Head to Other Objects.

Are you sure that your leader is set to Attach and that it's connected?

I personally think one of the most efficient methods is to simply maintain a statically named Main plan. Only rename a version when you are dropping it and only relink a plan to layout when it becomes absolutely necessary. See below for a little more info. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/25572-save-as-plan-with-layout/?do=findComment&comment=205297

No need for the rescue exceptions. The serve no useful purpose in this example and just take extra time to execute. Just use %label% in your text box.

And what are you hoping to get with the leader?

What do you mean by "over ride"?

I agree. I don't think it has anything to do with the macro looping. His screenshot shows the executed macro results meaning that its not stuck in a loop and has indeed finished execution.

The Help Files are simply stating that Plan and Layout files are tracked independently of each other. Has nothing to do with Save As.

Save As doesn’t start a new plan. It just saves the same plan under a new name. To start fresh, either Save As Template or Save As and delete all the old Time Tracker entries.

Yes.

Just a side note, but I've also found a way to access %wall.top_elevation% and %wall.bottom_elevation%. These 2 values can only be accessed using notes and a note schedule though.

Currently, you can use %referenced_view_callout_label% which will report the camera's callout label. This way, the callout number in layout is automatically synced with the camera's callout label in plan view. If you're looking for the other way around though, where the camera's label changes according to the label given in layout, then that's not something Chief has provided.

It totally depends on what you mean by this. What sort of numbering are you referring to?

Open Symbol>Sizing>Uncheck any Stretch Planes or Stretch Zones

Both statement are correct. If the view is a Plan View and is linked to a Saved Plan View then it uses the Saved Plan View name. If the view is a Plan View and is not linked to a Saved Plan View, then it uses the Floor Level Name. If the view is a Camera View then the name of the Saved Camera is uses. If the camera has been deleted then no name is used.
