Make sure "Show All Layers" is not selected when you click the gear.

I don't think there is an easy solution but perhaps a workaround or two... Frame of one window and sash of another or frameless window with p-solid frame perhaps.

Only if you actually have a polyline.

In that situation you would check the angle of the left line and determine exactly how much it needs to be rotated to be vertical. Then select the whole thing which usually includes the north arrow and use Transform and Replicate to rotate everything at once.

Square to the house or square to itself ? Regardless the north arrow needs to be parallel to one of the sides to get 0 and 90. So then you need to rotate it with the north arrow maybe.

or

Are you square on the screen/page ?

You need to be sure you are in defaults to set defaults and that only works for the existing plan unless you save it in your template file. For precise individual measurements you may need to change the rounding for some situations or "Grid Rounding" can sometimes cause inconsistent results and the "Distance Rounding" option may be more appropriate but not recommended for general use.

Still worth while though since you were there. Much easier to look at sitting at your desk rather than crawling around in a monkey suit with a flashlight. Curious about the green laser. Is that an artifact produced by the matterport camera or a separate laser level ? Knob and Tube ! Looking pretty good for a place of that vintage.

I don't think you will find that to be a hard and fast rule and it will depend on what the local requirements are and or who you are producing the drawing for. Surveyors will always use decimal feet but if it is the contractor laying out the footings he may prefer to work with feet and inches. Not sure about the dimensions being off if everything is drawn to scale as you may need to post some images or the plan file for that.

Try zipping the file or upload it to your cloud account and post the download link or PM Mark and he might be able to provide his email if it is under 25MB.

That is a very interesting situation. Do you figure it is because of the sloping floor or the tripod not being plumb. The elevation change should not be an issue because I have seen scan locations on stairway landings or even mid flight and it works. It would be interesting to know if it was just a setup glitch or a software stitching problem ?

I believe it was @Renerabbitt that told me that so I would need to defer to him to confirm it. I think it depends on how it is created but not exactly sure.

It looks like it is likely coming in as inches rather than meters.

You can create a custom polyline schedule in the new X14 which should be pretty handy for that purpose. Otherwise Joe has a macro package that does a lot of that and is pre formatted.

Yes new for X14.

Here is one I am currently working on that happens to be metric but I can customize it to what you need. Site Plan Elevation Points.txt

Yes I believe so as I am not sure if chief exports the right information as DXF. I have another client that does the same sort of work and uses a CSV text file to load into the Total Station. I could send you a sample to test if you like. Or check the manual and see what the formatting should be for your model.

Does the DXF carry the elevation data or are you better off with a CSV file with the locations and elevations ?

I would definitely go with the Chief recommendations and not the minimum with only a few exceptions if they are tuned to your personal requirements. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/products/sysreq.html

There is still a little more to learn about vector views because it needs to be standard view to see it on the teapot and it also follows the same rules in the plan as your elevation view appears to be vector which is normal so have a look in a standard render perspective view. You can switch your elevation camera to standard view but remember to switch it back.

Obviously "heated" has a different meaning in AZ than it does in TN but being from further north heated to me is the same as a "conditioned" room of which certain types of rooms are not and generally those rooms are also not tallied as living area. So if the label will not appear by turning it on in General Plan Defaults the trick is to run Plan Check and that should restore it.

It is in Public Beta now and seems to be quite stable as there is not a whole lot of discussion going on. No reason to not try it out for situations like this.

You may be able to do both by working in a separate plan file and using an imported symbol of the house but have not actually had to do it but thinking those would be the right tools.
