duckbill4375 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 How do I run #2-- 2 x 4 walls right next to each other with no drywall in between the 2 walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy1 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Make a new wall type that has drywall on one side for one of the walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Create a wall type as follows: 1/2" drywall 3-1/2" studs - Main Layer Add to your library Draw two of these walls side by side (drywall out) and move them together. Both walls will frame properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRAWZILLA Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Right now Chief will only frame one wall in a 2 wall single wall, but slide 2 walls together then both walls will frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dshall Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Right now Chief will only frame one wall in a 2 wall single wall, but slide 2 walls together then both walls will frame. We can only hope they have fixed this in X7. We should be able to build a wall with two rows of 2x4 studs, and both rows frame. As it is now, only one row of studs (the main layer) will frame.

DRAWZILLA Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 lEW Multi main layers in walls was added to have clean wall connection, but framing of 2 walls was never a part of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
