Then...in a new post drag the file into the "attach" area of the post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All we need is walls and the roof. You can remove cabinets, doors etc. Might help... You still may have to "zip" the file to get it to the size required.

SNestor Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Just now, decorators3 said: ...thank you... trying to see if my roof is done properly mc inty .zip The file doesn't work. You need to close the plan in Chief before zipping the file. If you have the file open...and you go into file explorer and zip the file...it won't work. Close the file in Chief first.
