I am having the same problem.

I do not delete the walls - I mark them no room, no locate, wall type demo 4, and a new layer which I do not display in 3d - demo walls.

Yet the finish surfaces of walls, and floors, and ceilings all still show a hole, no matter how many times I "rebuild."

This is VERY frustrating, as I am doing full sets of construction documents, and cannot simply get rid of the wall entirely.

AND the model needs to look perfect for client views!

Look at the http://www.chiefexpertsacademy.com/ and chieftutor.com, a few good sites for learning the program along with Chief video's

Woah.  This is perfect! I haven't come across this format yet, and the Master Chief Architect Course seems to be exactly what I need!

Thank you.

Hi, 

I am an architect working for a residential design build company in Nashua, NH, specializing in remodeling.

The company has Chief Architect X9.

I would like to be able to find training that is intensive, teaches me everything I need to know to draw Architectural and Existing Condition Drawings, accurate renderings, manipulate grade, etc. and shows me the capabilities of Chief so I am using all it has to offer.

(I need to set up the layers and wall types as a default, be able to cut sections, and manipulate things, etc.)

Is there anyone near me willing to train me?

Thanks!

Hello everyone, 

The design build and remodeling company i work for is looking into purchasing an IPad or Tablet and a blue tooth laser distancemeter from Leica to use with the Chief Room Planner Mobile App. We are a PC company but I am more bias towards the Apple handheld devices. Is it easier to transfer chief information from an android to a PC, rather than apple to PC? Can anyone give me input on whether an Apple product or an Android is a better purchase? Also, which Leica product do people find more helpful? 

Thanks in advance! 

I have changed the finished floor type to a tile and edited the length and width of it. When I go to full camera view and take a standard view why does the tile not change to the desired width and length, but when i change from standard view to line drawing or vector view the change in tile size is there? 

Thanks!

Thank you!! 

Help!!! I don't know how I did it but the room will not select and there is no floor in my room. The walls, doors and windows are all connected and it makes a full space except my floor and the option to select is gone. How do i get it back?!?

How can I create a barn style ceiling/roof with a flat interior on a 3'high knee wall? 

How can I place a custom spiral stair case in a corner without it snapping to the walls and wanting to become a corner stair?
