I'm not seeing this problem. What rendering mode are you using? What LayerSet?

Not sure what that means exactly. IAE, it's up to Chief to figure it out.

IMNSHO there should be some other options to update the macros IOW,provide 3 options: replace macros in the library item with macros in the plan replace macros the plan with macros in the library item don't change either I know about @Renerabbittmethod but it's often not that simple. Having 3 choices provided by chief would make it so much easier.

FWIW, this is simply a matter of the Room Name assignment. You can edit the name in Room Types and the Room Labels will be changed in both plans & schedules automatically. Chief has only a fixed number of Room Functions. You can have as many Room Types aka Room Names as you want. Those each have their own set of Defaults and will automatically be created/modified accordingly as long as "Use Defaults" is selected. ps: I'm somewhat of a dinosaur and prefer the older names. I don't consider the word Master to be prejorative, sexist or racist but if you want to be PC all you need to do is modify the names (in existing plans and/or in plan templates).

How do you do that in your post ?

Can you use a custom Millwork Symbol, Mounts on Wall ? Set a stretch plane at the center of the width. You can then size it to whatever you need.

Use a Lintle as the board the track mounts to.

Maybe it was never added to the Wall.

Select the Wall and open the dialog. Then select the materials tab

Put a 1/16" thick interior & exterior layer in the wall type. or specify a wall covering in the room. Then select the paint color from one of the paing catalogs as the material

Single family residences don't usually have to comply with ADA requirements. That said, a clear space in a bathroom for wheel chair access should be at least 36"x48" and not be impeded by a door swing. It should provide that clear space in front of all fixtures when the door is closed. The general principle is to allow a wheelchair to enter the bathroom, close the door and manuever to all fixtures so as to use them.

My grandkids have to buy their own shoes. OTOH, you just need to bill for more hours. IAE, I bill by the sq ft --- which depends on the type of project.

My exact thought. unless it's my hourly rate

You've got to be kidding.

Maybe there's a pony wall about 2" thicker that isn't being displayed on the plan. Then if the measurements are to the exterior of that wall you would get the discrepancy. We would need the actual Chief plan file - not a pdf - in order to know exactly.

Sounds like a bug. But in reality it's reporting the wall layer's material, not the room's material. What happens if you edit the wall layer?

Do your wall types include a "Paint Layer" ?

Chief has never handled track mounted garage doors correctly. The plan view has always been for the solid one piece door with the dooor in the closed position between the Jambs, not behing them. I sent in a suggestion about this about 4-5 years ago but I don't recall any response. I fake it by using a Doorway smaller that the actual garage door Invisible no-room definition wall inside the exterior wall then place the garage door in that invisible wall IOW the opening in the exterior wall is what's going to be built and the garage door is inserted in the invisible wall which is inside the garage. The tracks will then be basically inside the garage, not within the opening in the exterior wall. For rollup doors I use the same method.

Default sets include layersets. That should handle everything.

Do a library search for Engineered floor Joists & Trusses. There's a couple of Steel Web Trusses and a Wood Web Floor Truss that are top chord bearing. They're just CAD Blocks but they can be superimposed on cross sections.

FWIW, X10 is 8 years old and most users here are on X17. I think in X10 you would probably need to use manually created pie shaped landings to emulate the winders. You will need to adjust each landing's top elevation & thickness to get them all to connect with the stair sections As Jason said, questions and requests for assistance should be posted in the Q&A Forum.

Click menu (3 dots) upper right on original post and then report. Then ask that it be moved to the Q&A Forum. I've already don that so it will be moved soon.

As a former California Hospital Architect, you need to: Make sure you are licensed to do this work Check with the Michigan and local codes for: occupancy class fire resistive requirements. Hospitals require much more stringent codes than other structures and I'm pretty sure anything built on or attached will have to conform to those codes. The may be additional state Hospital licensing codes & review. That is definitely true in California - I don't know about Michigan.

What prompts did you use? I do notice some differences in the shingles and you specifice board an batt siding which wasn't my choice. BTW, the little pine trees planted that close to the structure is a really bad idea. They will grow and create all kinds of problems.

That cabin was done in X4 and I no longer have the plan. However, I will go back to the original rendering and try some material options. I don't have the time right now but I can do it in a couple of days.
