You bet. I'm guessing what you probably did was try to rotate it 180 degrees to put it back to normal. That setting is an absolute setting though so 180 degrees would do nothing.

Rotate Plan View WAS the culprit. When you open that dbx you'll see that its set to 180 degrees. Simply set it back to zero.

Here's a quick video going over just the basics of how I might approach that issue...

By the way...thank you for posting the plan.

Your problem is here... This setting controls where your floor platform below frames to. You have your floor framing to the absolute exterior face of your building therefore leaving no room for siding. In my experience you typically only want your platform framed to the exterior of your framing layer or maybe to the exterior of your exterior sheathing, not to the exterior of your siding though.

I'll try to make you a quick video if I can find a few minutes this afternoon. Maybe post me a quick plan with just the basic dual pitch roof set up like you want it so I have something to start with.

I would just remove the automatically created facia and replace with a polyline solid.

Is it mainly the facia that you are having a hard time with? Or are you looking for some specific framing details as well?

You probably ought to post the plan then.

Convert the arc to a plain polyline (with a higher number of sides) before converting to a molding polyline.

I'm guessing you used the Rotate Plan View tool which essentially just rotates your entire "drawing board". Use the same tool to rotate it back. If you want to rotate the plan back to where it was use Edit Area or another method.

See this thread, specifically post number three… https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/9103-poly-line-labels-why-did-chief-bother-to-add-this-feature/?hl=%2Bdecimal+%2Bplaces

Have you guys considered just using a second very narrow set of stairs for your handrail instead of oversizing the one set?

Just got back to computer and verified. I was close...its the "Deck Support" tab. Edit>Default Settings>Room>Deck Room>Deck Support

Not at my computer to check but I believe it's in the deck room dbx..."Support" tab maybe?

...or cut/paste hold position into a blank plan (or another floor/detail), modify, and cut/paste hold position back into original view.

Don't select your poly first. If you do that, the poly will be treated as your edit area selection polyline. Just click edit area AND THEN draw your lasso just like you would in VW.

Here's a quick sample plan with a cabinet modified using the technique I posted in that other thread. They key is to use an inset side panel on the bottom followed be either a Separation or a manually placed shelf above that. If necessary you can also adjust the vertical overlap and possibly top separation to get you what you're after. Cabinet example.plan

This thread is a little confusing to me. I'm not sure what the goal is. Do you want the door overlapping the frame or do you want the door hanging past the box? Which direction...up or down? And for what purpose?

Good write up Mickey. To each his own. If you don't mind I think maybe you should redo those screenshots to add this one as well so people can see all options side by side. The simple wall break and drag footing over method...

He's referring to the "tread" on that short section of ramp forming what is essentially a wall cap. Me thinks it has something to do with being in the vicinity of the other landing and stairs because you cut and paste those 2 sections of ramp into a blank plan and they work just fine...the "treads"/wall caps match and align.

Okay, I figured it out. You're talking about when you drag that flat section of ramp back so that the leading edge is aligned with the leading edge of your landing (right at the apex). Sorry, I don't have an answer for you at this time. I'm really not even sure which stairs and landing it's referring to, are you? It actually happens even if you drag that little flat ramp way off to the side.

I understood that part. I was trying to get clarification on question #2 regarding your issue with "aligning" the 2 segments.

What do you mean by "align" Johnny? I noticed that top ramp is slightly overlapping your landing (by a hair of a hair). Maybe that was causing your problem?
