I knew it was something simple. And I get to use my middle finger! Thanks.

I got a big plan set to use in working up some structure and find the ways to get the job built. There are links built into the .pdf, such that when looking at a floor plan with elevation callouts, a click on the callout takes you to the page where the elevation is displayed. Which version of Adobe does this?

I can't seem to succeed. What is the trick?

Yes! That's it.

I have the foundation wall as a two-layer thing, 8" main layer concrete, the finish outer layer in 2" air gap and 4" stone. I want the framed wall above to have the stone come up to level 0 (with its stone wall cap done with a molding). So is this best done with material regions for the stone? Or am I better off using a stacked molding, stone under stone cap?

Plan attached. The overhang on this, everywhere, is a small 2'6 by whatever length needed curved one, joined at the building line with the roof over walls and house. They won't behave. I highlighted the two along the front elevation (plan L) that need attention. Select and you'll see the odd behavior. And while you are looking, tell my why I am unable to do a simple one vert one horiz muntin pattern in the round window. The elevation view has the blocked CAD lines, but I get no "load muntins."

As you can see, the fascia is neither square nor plumb. And the soffit is dropped, with a blocked-out frieze below. I created the roof with a flat planar roof plane with baseline at wall line (outside face of main layer). Outside that is another roof plane, curved, specified to have the right radius and tangent characteristics. That roof plane cannot be specified with a boxed soffit. I tried. No go. Maybe it is because it is not "on" the wall, but is outboard of it. It appears as if to get reasonably close to what this is, I will need to do a molding, the shape of it the whole soffit box and the frieze. The back-cut fascia with the crownmold? Forgettaboutit. What would you do?

When you don't do much with curved roofs, you forget that it is better to do all your roof editing and joinery before you turn them into curves. Here is what flies out when you haven't joined yet.

'Twas the stile! Thanks, Dermot.

See the picture.

Thanks, Joey. That'll do it.

Made the notes after changing default? Almost certainly no. But how did you get the new font, and it is not Century Gothic, in the existing note schedule, for the note numbers?

Take a look. Bedroom addition two queens gabled.plan

No, that's not it. The callout number is generated by a macro. I have checked all three sources: from layer, custom, and default, all of which are set as Century Gothic, but the note schedule generates with note numbers written in Graphite Std. It is still a mystery.

I cannot find it. I changed my whole setup to use Century Gothic font everywhere (I thought) but the note numbers are displaying in Graphite XL. Where is the default for this auto-generated label?

Oh, Rocky.

Offered here as a symbol you can download from the 3D Warehouse, where I just uploaded it. I imported it into Chief and it works fine. Since I now have it in my user library I suppose I could offer it here as a Chief object (.calibz??) but I don't know how. If you want to tell me the process, please do.

Thanks!

Is this the Chief Interiors forum?

A guy in my area built a "net zero" house, conventional 2x6 framing with smart-framing details, the continuous insulation being two layers of 2" rigid foam that went atop taped Huber ZipWall sheathing. The insulation went down continuously to the footings. To effect a vapor barrier, the outer layer of 4x8 foam sheets were gapped 3/8" and sprayfoam went into the joints, then the joints all got taped. The siding was vertical board and batten, really nice western red cedar 1x12 boards and 5/4 x 2 battens. The sub-purlins for attaching the siding was 5/4x2 atop strips of the product shown in the picture, which allows water to get through and down. It has a trussed roof with 28 inch heel height and the attic has 24 inches of cellulose on the floor.

And thanks, Mick! Swis 721 is identical (at least to my tired old eyes) to Century Gothic.

I just did and they are there. I am now fully in the 21st century!

Thanks to Alan (ACAD User) I now have all the variations of Century Gothic installed in my Windows font folder. But Chief does not have them identified. Does someone have a tip for how to get these fonts, in my Windows font folder, accessible for Chief?

Yeah, it's nowhere. There were articles I found in searches that said look for it in the Windows Recycle Bin, but it's not there. A few articles seem to be saying that it went gone when Win10 came. Guess I will have to buy it if I want it.
