The Finished Ceiing (F) is equal to the Rough Ceiling (E) minus the Ceiling Finish (J). So whatever values you've entered in E and F will determine J.

Typically in the past, I used the "break" tool to create the bend but recently (in X8), I started using the "diamond" grab handle which saves a mouse click.
I suggest you simplify things and set Preferences>Appearance>Text>Leader Lines>Number of Segments to 2; then you won't have to break a leader line, or drag out another segment - three clicks to draw the leader, then the text box will pop up.

You need to be more clear. What doesn't look right? Where do you want moldings? It would help a lot if you could provide a sketch, or mark-up your picture to show us what you're trying to achieve.

Here's a hvac sidewall vent similar to the Trane Bayvent. It can be used to vent many types of equipment including furnaces, water heaters, etc.

I don't believe you can specify the default in degrees, only in in/ft. However, simple math (or a construction calculator) can convert a pitch in degrees to a pitch in in/ft. Otherwise you're stuck with modifying the pitch within each individual Roof Specification dbx.

This is with my drawing scale and printer both set to tabloid, landscape. The white part is all that will print.
That's correct. The white space in the layout shows the sheet size - the portion that will print. The blue border is the print margin. Copy/paste your titleblock from Page 1 to Page 0, then scale/re-arrange the titleblock to fit within the sheet size (the white space); this isn't absolutely required, but anything placed on Page 0 will appear on every other page, so it's a good place to put your titleblock. Then go back to Page 1, switch to the plan file and Send to Layout with a scale of 1:100. Now you're ready to print.
n.b.: I use Chief Premier, not Home Designer, which may work a bit differently.

Short answer: no.
Long answer: Octane's primary import format is OBJ, which Chief doesn't support. However, Chief will export the DAE and 3DS file formats that other software programs can import and then send to Octane via a plugin or direct export to the OBJ format. A quick review of Octane's FAQ will probably answer the rest of your questions.

Here are some symbols I use lot, from left to right: coaxial (single drop), UTP (single drop), fiber (single drop), coax/UTP (TIA Class 1), coax/UTP/fiber (TIA Class 2).

Are you actually clicking on the save camera icon or just saving the file and then exiiting? The save camera icon is available when the camera is open. If you don't click on it the camera will not be saved and not available the next time you open the file.
Yep, good point. Most changes made within the dialog box will automatically save the camera. Probably the easiest thing to ensure the camera is saved is to simply change the name:

We buy our new systems from Falcon Northwest. They have proven to be very solid builds, great performance, and great support. Here is a base system for $2300. We always upgrade to the best GPU and CPU we can afford.
