I personally don't care for that look but if you look closely, there does appear to be a cricket where the two gables come together I think.

Try setting the "separation" for whatever the distance is between the two windows. Then bump them together and see if they will mull. Just an idea.

I have been fighting this issue for several versions now. PIA.

If you want to work with layer sets and annotation sets like I do, call me and I would be happy to help (no cost). 832-754-6160

Not much to go on. Try opening a new plan. draw 4 walls to make room definition. See if you can do a full overview.

Try using Chief PDF printer and see if that helps. I have been using it exclusively since I got this new laptop with no problems. Before, I was using Cute PDF. When I upload a pdf to an email, I always open it from the email so I know it's okay before I hit "send".

What are your computer specs? What are you doing when it crashes? How big of a plan is it? Are you using high face count symbols? More information is needed.

My guess would be to check the face count?

I think he's good to go now.

I cheat when I need arched trim. Back when I had Version 8, I bought a lot of libraries from Jay Palmer. Don't know if his website is still available. His arched trim libraries have literally hundreds of symbols to be used with different size windows. Usually he has something that I can work with and they look good in elevations.

98% of my construction plans are stamped by an engineer who does markups and we go back and forth until it's done. I draw the construction plans. This always saves the client money. I have the owner or builder pay the engineer directly. Some of the engineers will only do the engineering if they supply their own plan which is 10 times the cost to homeowner or builder which means I basically provide a conceptual plan only with no structural of any kind such as notes and details. I do not deliver construction plans done by me without having an engineering stamp. If the engineer supplies their own plan, then I'll provide a pdf of the conceptual plan and create dwgs of the plan to send to the engineers. My dwgs are usually stripped down of things like cabinets and other things since the engineer is really only concerned about structure. My engineer that does markups is extremely reasonable in his prices. The other engineers are outrageous in their pricing.

Sorry Eric, You're correct. I phrased it wrong. Molding profile is correct. I have a lot of these for window lintels. I do remodels for homes that have this all the time.

I personally would do that by making a molding polyline. Once you add it to the window lintel, resize the window all you want....it will work just fine. If you want me to show you how to do it via Zoom, let me know. 832-754-6160.

If it is an island room, just create a new layer for that wall. Put the wall on that new layer and turn it off so it doesn't display in plan view.

I believe he's now okay using his dwg in his plan. Helped him via Zoom.

Yes, please let us know what you find out. I've never experienced this issue.

Very smart approach and is why I import this way too. I learned to do this a long time ago.

For some of the remodels I do here, The City of Houston sometimes requires this but it has to be done by a licensed electrician to be submitted.

I just got this laptop not too long ago and have no problems. See my specs below.

I personally would reconfigure one of the two structures or both to make the roof work easily or have a detached garage with a breezeway.

Sounds like a video card issue.

You could also use walls or even a slab. Kinda depends on the situation.

As Marc mentioned, if it's blocked, unblock it first. If it's not blocked and your multi-selecting text, try opening one text and see if you can edit it.

I just show a cad block in electrical plan. I don't use a 3D symbol for I'll never show it in a render.

This is what I always do and works just fine.
