Thanks all, very helpful! I will try out a couple of the suggestions. Still, with all the amazing things this program does automatically, wouldn't you think that would be one of them?

Hi All, Very new to Chief Architect. Please bear with me. I would like to know if there's an easier way than Support told me to simply show an exterior elevation without showing the outline of the foundation. What I want seems so straightforward that I would think there's got to be an easy way to do it. When I shut off the foundation layer, the elevation doesn't show the 8" or so of stem wall. When I turn it on, I see what's underground. I don't want that! Not even dashed. I want what's above ground, with a nice hard grade line. Support said I need to create all sorts of crap like poly lines with blank fill (and blank lines). That seems like so much trouble. What about when you tweak grade later on? You then have to go tweak your polylines for every elevation? I feel like there's GOT to be a better way. thanks, Tom
