Why? Care to elaborate? I'm not smart enough to just know what you're referring to! My thinking is that one of the paint colors has to meet somewhere, right? So what's wrong with the edge line where the underside meets the 'exterior'?

Would it be safe to assume your profile pic was set about 1 minute after Tippet announced that Smith would be the starter for game 1 against the Blackhawks?

Material regions on the floor isn't the most practical solution, especially if you need a flooring transition at the doorway. It's really much simpler: Make the doorway full height of the combined opening. off to the side, place and size your window. Turn off window casing. Select window, and center on the doorway. Fortunately, a doorway's measurement are INSIDE the jamb, while a window's measurements are OUTSIDE of the frame, so no math required! Last step: Don't try to mull them (it won't work anyhow)!

Those aren't rounded, so it'd be really tough to make rounded shelves just like those! Or really easy?? Scratch head now.

And just before you make the little deck room that Michael suggests, take note of the top elevation of the landing. Use that to set the floor height of your deck landing.

I'd make the doorway full size with the window set within the doorway; no casing to the window. You can also use 3 object in the same place: a doorway that's the full size (this will have the casing and trim) and the mulled unit, sans trim.

Even easier, don't mull them!

Best to post the plan, but you could try adding 1/2" (or more) to the rough opening on the bottom (Framing Tab)

@Designer100 Plan is attached. You can take a look to see what I changed, and the simplest way to get those changes into your plan would be to delete the 2 ramps, landing and slab, then copy the same items from this plan and ctrl-alt-v in your plan. Clear as mud, right?! Moheb Building New RD.zip

You need to update your profile pic! I take it you have your coffin selected!? I'm taking a look at your plan file now...

My only other suggestion would be to zip each file and try uploading a zipped file as opposed to the pdf file. The person on the other end would have to extract them of course, but the issue may be in the transfer process. Of course, I'd try that with a single file to see if it works.

I'll ask the obvious: why not print a pdf of each page directly from layout? I'd at least give that a shot.

A-Frame Bathroom, Chief X12 PBR

Very Nice Rene! Some fantastic details in that scene!

Chief Architect X12 PBR

No. They follow the draw order of their parent object.

Great! Don't forget to use F1 (help). Way more info than I'm willing to type!

Check out the text style for the framing label layer. You can edit it to not be transparent.

The cat on the chair is a nice touch! I'll be showing my daughter that one!

Would you be willing to post some of your results? It's always interesting to see "what Chief can do"!

A situation as shown in the OP should almost certainly have the structural requirements designed by an engineer. It's most likely outside of the scope of the manufacturer's pre-engineered details / tables, and probably outside the scope of the appropriate building code as well. Engineering would be required in Canada. And @Alaskan_Son is correct; best to have a single opening, and wood-frame the dividing portions.

I wonder what @stevenyhof defaults are set to...I've always had my wall defaults using the main layer outside, and the main reason I group select and change in that situation is because I always need those daylighted foundation walls to be pony walls. Of course I do use the copy and paste method you mentioned in many other situations. I'm sure Steve will be making adjustments shortly as some of these tips will certainly help him with the issue he described.

Most certainly doesn't work that way for me. I perform that same function and the exterior main layer of the new wall always follows the same line of the wall being replaced. Spoke too soon. I may be remembering that wrong! Although I must say, I'd be group selecting walls and performing a wholesale change using the dialog box.

They aren't too bad if the segments are edited using their coordinates as opposed to a drag-and-draw approach. @kwhitt And in this approach, why would you bother with a 3d molding for the entire thing? It's not being welded together offsite to be one piece! If pieces work in real, can't pieces work for you too? Draw the vertical in section view, draw the level channels in plan view. Do this all while the correct channel molding is selected in your library browser. Easy peasy. Anyhow, I'd me more worried about waterproofing that hardwood and baseboard!
