Disharoon Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Hello! I just recently converted to Chief Architect X13. I am trying to export a Layout File to PDF. Every time I do it removes the textures from my elevations. It also does not show the texture while it is in the layout view and sometimes in the plan view. I have tried to resave, send the view to layout again, change line weights, etc, and I just can't figure it out. I am attaching the resulting PDF and the plan file. FYI to reduce file size for the forum I removed all interior walls and electric from the plans.

robdyck Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 It's probably because you're using a Line Drawing technique with shadows on. Switch to a Vector View, then send to layout using Plot Lines. It does seem to act buggy, but still, you really shouldn't use the Line Drawing technique for elevation or section views.

robdyck Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Also, if you're going to show shadows in your elevation views, you need to adjust the sun angle. I'd suggest you "Use Generic Sun, Sun Follows Camera". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
