One option is to move the closet to the basement level. 1. Go to the first floor, select this wall, and make it No Room Definition: 2. Go to the basement and extend this wall over to the exterior. This creates the closet: 3. Open the new closet dbx and change the floor level to 1' 6", the Stem Wall to 12' 10", and the Floor Finish and Floor Structure to the appropriate values: These steps will give you a closet at the landing level while preserving the exterior walls:

I'm not a roof guru, but I agree with Eric. Chief can't solve every roof configuration automatically. Turn off automatic rebuild, and it takes about one minute to fix the roof:

Well, good luck getting your request fulfilled - there are several "light commercial" features that just as pressing. If you really want this to happen, you need to post this in the Suggestion Forum.

I think the easiest method is to draw the section as a closed polyline, then convert the polyline to a polyline solid to give it depth. You could also save the closed polyline in your user library and use it as a molding profile. You could also use solid primitives and boolean operations to create the shape, but then you can no longer dynamically change the length of the object.

Well, yes. Obviously I made some assumptions in giving my previous solutions. I could have the intent completely wrong.

You need to clarify what you're trying to achieve with this chunk: and with the bay windows.

Second, open the Wall Specification dbx for this wall: and UNcheck Roof>Roof Options>Full Gable Wall. That will get you this:

First, open the Wall Specification dbx for these three walls: and check Roof>Roof Options>High Shed/Gable Wall. That will get you this:

Okay, I explored the Multiple Copy tool some more. Are you referring to this function?: It works as you described, but I'd never used it before. Now I'm smarter.

Your OP stated, in part: "How can I divide a line into 4 parts or distribute a line along a line." So, I'm assuming you already have a line drawn, and you need to divide it into 4 equal parts. Using your method, doesn't this require you to first know the length of the line , and then to calculate it's quarter-points? How else will you know what interval to use when you Multiple Copy?

Maybe I don't understand Ken's method, but if I do, then his method requires you to know the length of the line, and use a calculator to divide it by 4, then multiple copy 5 lines with the calculated answer; and if the line length is an ugly fraction, then your calculated interval will be even uglier. I'm not saying my method is better, but the mouse/calculator clicks are about even, and mine lets Chief do the math.

Draw three circles (or points, or whatever - it doesn't matter). Pick the circles, then Align to Line: This won't physically divide the line into four equal segments, but it will give you the four relevant points along the line.

You can export your user library. Put everything into a subfolder, then right-click and select Export Library...

Yes. Default marker size for your annoset.

File>Print>Drawing Sheet Setup>Drawing Sheet>Size. Then go to Page 0 and change whatever you need.

Build the floor/ceiling framing, either manually or automatically. Open the Room Specification dbx and remove the ceiling finish. This will expose the floor framing and/or the ceiling joists above.

Your question belongs in the General Questions forum. You should post it there for more responses. Also, post your plan file, or at least some pictures to help explain your issue.

Joe, I think he's planning on bearing the floor joists on a plate. Here's a section thru his plan:

I did a forum search, and Glen Woodward had the answer: "The blank floor areas are usually caused by the Build Platform To setting in the wall def dbx. There should be no reason why you can't use that wall def, as long as the above settIng is set to the correct wall layer." Change the setting to layer 5 (you're main layer):

Oh, that old problem. I know someone else will remember how to fix this before I do.

Easy answer is that there isn't a second floor, or a roof for that matter.

To add to what Jon and Joe said, you can also create a closed polyline, edit it's shape to whatever you need, then convert it to a material region using the convert polyline tool.

Attaching a Layout without the Plan doesn't do us any good.

I don't have that problem. I'm also on X7. Here is your plan in 3D Overview in Vector and Standard:

This topic has been covered several times in this forum, so a forum search should give you several threads to review for help.
