This is how I work when a new version is released: Download the new version (X17) and work on test projects in the new version to get used to it. Once I'm comfortable, I will start new client projects in the new version. Keep the previous version (X16) on my computer and finish up any ongoing projects. Just easier and safer to finish up ongoing projects in the version they were started in. Both X17 and X16 can live on your computer and you can work in either version. Just need to pay attention to which version you have open. Good luck!

Unfortunately I do not have the answer to this, but if you re-post your question in the General Q & A Forum you will definitely get answers from other users. Good luck!

Style Pallets is another great option: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/247/using-style-palettes.html

Thank you for sharing this Rene. Very helpful.

Hi, Try posting this in the General Q&A forum and you will get many more responses. This forum is more of a collection of Symbols and Content. Regarding your question. I am assuming you are trying to use these manufacturer's products in your design? Chief does not have a catalog available for download for Kirby Risk Lighting Fixtures or for Engineered Floors. A manufacturer must have a downloadable 3d model in order for you to import it into Chief. Neither of these manufacturers appears to offer 3d models of their products. If a manufacturer does have 3d models you can import the items one at a time into your User Library in Chief. (see attached screenshot) If you want a manufacturer to collaborate with Chief and include their products in a catalog in Chief, you can go directly to your rep and to the manufacturer and make a request. There are several permanent threads in the Symbols and Content forum that discuss how to approach a manufacturer. Hope this helps.

Depends on what the client needs for storage. Sometimes a corner is the only place available in a kitchen layout to store odd sizes of small appliances that are too tall or large for a drawer. I agree with you the (2) 18" cabinet drawers provide a lot of storage and there is a lot of wasted space with the LeMans, but the Lazy Susan (who the heck named that cabinet anyway?!) can be very useful in certain situations...

Try moving this question to the Q&A Forum and you'll have better luck finding someone to help you.

You're welcome, but apologies, I should have looked more closely before offering up that solution to see that the Merrillat corner is doing the same thing. Now that I think about it I'm guessing that their corner cabinet filler was created the same way you created yours. Anyway, thank you for submitting this as a bug.

Molly, I also think this particular case is a bug. You can submit it to Chief. Go to Chiefarchitect.com / my account / technical support / new case (and submit your zipped file there.) Another suggestion for placing a corner filler: Select a corner filler out of one of the manufacturer's cabinet catalogs. I found one by searching in the library search bar for "corner filler". Merrillat has one in their catalog but it needs a few adjustments. You'll need to set the toe kick depth to match yours and you'll need to remove the backsplash and adjust the countertop overhang. Then place in plan in between your 2 base cabinets. Now you have a corner filler that will show up on your schedule. Lastly, have you considered not using a dead corner and instead using a Lemans corner or a lazy Susan cabinet to capture all of that space? Just a thought. Susan

Just wondering if anyone is using VR goggles with clients to allow them to walk through their project?

Molly, Can you post your plan as well, or even just a jpg of the plan so we can see exactly what you have going on in the corner? Thanks, Susan

@CADustin Thank you for all the updates!

Hopefully this solved the problem for you!
