dshall Posted November 13, 2021 Author Share Posted November 13, 2021 The problem is I have something in Tokyo so it is messing up the model. Now I can at least find the offending item I will be good to go. Thanks Mick for looking into this.... (look closer, you will see the black line are offset from the colored shapes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopsaw Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Also your color fills are getting broken up with white lines. I thought that did not happen to Mac users.. It might be good to report that one again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do see the shift now in the PDF..... yesterday I was looking for "Shadows" , not CAD Lines with a 3' offset.... One for TS for sure ...I have not seen that personally but am on a PC. M.

Pretty sure TS is quite aware of the situation. Perhaps they are no longer interested though ? It happens as soon as your terrain perimeter is wider than your structure or in Scott's case any rogue or intentionally placed object that is beyond the outer walls of the build. It is just that it is much more obvious when you go international with your plan file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately Yes that is usually the way it works unless you are always drawing townhouses in the city. I think you could also reproduce the issue with a super-wide rambling ranch design that was maybe 10-12 thousand square feet or a commercial build. I bet that last project that @ShaneK did would have been an issue if it used plot lines with color fill. Here is a more recent example with a link back to an older thread as well but there are many others buried in the forum to be found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 That thread may explain it as I just about always "Clip to Sides" as Robert suggested, not 100% sure this is Scott's issue though? though it maybe also that I don't frequently send Color to layout. I have not seen a lot of Posts on this issue which is a bit surprising and maybe why Chief hasn't fixed it (not enough reports to get high on the list) https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/32422-color-fill-issue-in-layout/?do=findComment&comment=254794 M.

dshall Posted November 14, 2021 Author Share Posted November 14, 2021 I found the issue. There was a piece of drywall from 2 sloped ceiling planes that were not merged very well at the ridge. Once I selected the two ceiling planes and merged all was well. BTW, I could not select the flying drywall.... because.... I do not know why....

Kbird1 Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Nice find .............that is a looong way from home..... So the issue maybe a really big Plan Area, rather than just a Large Terrain Perimeter then.... Probably worth Reporting to Tech Support still as that still shouldn't happen.... M.
