Hi I would love to chat with you further is there a contact # i can call

The file name appears when i open the program under recent plans & in the archives . Then when i click on that file i get a window that says file is corrupt

A site plan , what is the you tube link for ?

POWER OUTAGE i see the file in the archive but cant retrieve it , it also says auto saved file a couple times !! Never had this before any suggestions

Yes I do have all these lots plotted on a 13 x 19 sheet , i might be able to trace over that plan

I am hoping there is someway to create a small sub division in chief x10.The sub division is 120 2 acre lots . I need it so I can plot road & drainage areas for asphalt . This would also help to note lots that might require drainage pipes in front of existing & potential driveways.I would like to send thise to a 13x 19 layout sheet. This doesnt have to be 100% accurate I can write road dimensions on the plan

been going in baby steps LOL i can get to that point it has been crazy where i see a greyed outline around certain edges & the dimension tool wont appear:( even wheni click on certain lines if i enter 7/8 it shows up at 1 "& then click on it it shows as 1"boy this is driving me nuts would anyone be able to do a phone call sometime ??

I am using x10 how can i get a blank page 11x17 that i can edit the borders ? Please step by step

Thanks Happy New year What are the best times to call ???

yes i am !!

Would anyone discuss some issues of chief over the phone ??

Is this a square box and you are using the auto exterior tool ,for these ( outside of walls ) exterior dimensions ? Different dimension tools and settings ( defaults ) will effect how chief dimensions these items or componets in a plan . 6 1/8 sounds like a wall setting to me .Click on a wall, it will be highlighted, bottom of screen you will see an icon that looks like a door( open object tool )a new box will appear and a wall menu will show up with a wall type , to the right of that wall type you will see a button that says define, click that and you will get another menu which will tell you the types of materials that are making up that walls dimension . As you click on each item you can adjust the dimension of that material So try clicking on that wall - highlighted - open dialogue window / define / see if 6 1/8 shows up here

There are so many ways of doing the same things in chief !! I Like your idea of drawing the basement on floor 1 I will give that a try , THANKS !! IS THERE ANY ISSUES WITH THE FLOOR # ? Can that be swapped from floor 1 to zero somehow ?? as i try all these diffrent approaches i learn more thanks again

what is x3 or x4 refering to ??
