I just did... this is crazy. I guess I got so used to using the same tools and not really ventured through all these extra tools. Has this always been here? I learned two things to today on the same post. LOL.

@JKEdmo Cool elevations. How did you get the back view lighter, is this tow different elevations on top of each other?

Genius... thanks Robert.

When you did this, the views you did want them to show, were those labels out in space? I figured this might be the only way, just have to remember the correct set I am using.. :-) Glad to see others working on a Labor Day weekend..

As the title states, I am asking if there is a way to show these labels on certain section views, but not all section views. I typically show these labels on exterior elevation views, but being asked not to show on interior cross section views. It appears that their either all on or all off. I thought, well I'd just turn them off on the views that do not need them and on in the others, but after you refresh your layout views they "ALL" either turn on, or they "ALL" turn off. Anyone have a trick up there sleeve?

OK, That's what I kinda been waiting for. I am no means an IT guy, I like it when OOTB works with ALL my software's, not just Chief. I understand some things need to be set once a software is loaded, but when I kept reading Chiefer's were having problems finding files, save as, linking, the new PM, etc.. I thought I'd just wait it out. Those issues have dropped a lot since it originally came out, your statement makes it more official. Not worried about the downvote. We all have opinions and someone didn't agree with mine. It's totally ok.. Thanks DB

@Doug_N I haven't upgraded to 17 yet, so not able to look at your model. I am waiting patiently waiting for all the bugs to we worked out. What's the material type for those casings?

Exactly what I do. And if they want, I can ask my mom for the phone we kids used to use that had a 8' cord, she's be glad to get it out of her basement storage. Never could figure out how to text on that thing.

I don't know about Robert, but maybe if a DW is at the end of a row of cabinets? I have not updated yet to 17 to know this.. still kind a gun shy. But I usually wait a month or two for all the bugs and fixes to get updated and posted on any upgrades

Your welcome. In a detail showing that 2" x 20" foam insul will be easy, however if you wanted to show in the model, where all your section views will show it, you can do a custom molding and set it below the slab. I updated that test model. 519850850_testcmu.plan

Well hmmm... I do trays all the time, some with room dividers, and don't have issues like this. Can you post this plan and let one of us look at it? It's got to be a setting or something. Even the ceiling in the living area looks different.

Have you checked "recess into ceiling" on that Tray Ceiling dbx?

Your welcome Keith...

@KKBKeith Hi KKB... This is one of Chiefs week points IMO, invisible walls at a corner. My work around is I draw two little room divider lines off of each end (circled in red), then connect with the main room divider line. Some tweaking of the points to connect but it usually works well. Recording 2025-08-21 203606.mp4

@Kbird1@Mark3D After reviewing your case, it appears that your issue is being caused by an attic wall that’s extending too far. The easiest way to fix this that we’ve found is to:1. In your plan view, go to floor A2. Delete the gable end wall (shown in the attached screenshot)3. Go to Edit->Default Settings->Walls->General Wall4. Check the box for Auto Rebuild Attic Walls5. The program will generate a new attic wall of the correct size where the old one was removed – this new wall should allow the fascia to properly generate.After performing these steps, you can optionally go back in and turn off Auto Rebuild Attic Walls if needed.Please let me know if this helps! You were mostly right Mick. The floor I was concentrating on was the second floor, not the attic. As I mentioned above, I usually turn off the attic walls and draw my own. This design, I added the "true" 2nd floor attic" after the fact when client wanted more storage. This moved the full length gable wall up to the "A" floor. Making it too long as Support found out. Thanks to you all.
