I don't know if it's still the same as in '21, but I believe this "feature" was limited to Chief Architect. It was telling me I needed some ridiculous length, so I asked about this like 5 years ago, but didn't get an answer, apparently.

Hi - I did it with Wall Covering. Can we do a backsplash on a wall that doesn't have cabinetry/countertops?

I have a bathroom with a tile wainscot as well as vertical edges at the tub. Is there a way to show this with a thickness? If so, I'd like to be able to show what will be Schluter edging. Thanks.

How close can we actually get to windows with wall breaks? I only need to do this to define the tiling area around the tub and the wainscoting on the wall. When I drag or try manual entry, I'm not getting consistent results.

Thanks again, but I'm not using 2024. I'll contact support.

Thanks, but I need to troubleshoot the materials for now. This file is just a test.

wainscot test.plan

No emissivity...File below, wouldn't let me attach here. This is the default "Charcoal Tiles" material.

Thanks - tried that. Here's what happens when I set Shininess to "Dull": So, it seems to have almost no effect. Maybe actually makes it shinier. Another angle, not what I'd typically describe as "dull":

I am having a hard time getting the Physically Based materials to look as expected. Here is a comparison of Standard and Physically based views of the same materials in a room with a single wide window providing light. The materials in Standard look much closer to the previews, and as expected. Even with some adjustments, I can't get the colors to look correct in Physically Based, as well as getting far too much reflectivity on something like floor tiles (applied as wainscot to test here): Standard: Physically based: Any suggestions? Thanks

Thanks, I'll try that out.

Hi David - I did a search before asking, and... However, I don't believe this searches library collection contents. Is there a way to do that?

The default library has an undermount oval sink, but not rectangular, which we need. I did a search in the online library, but didn't find anything. Any suggestions? thanks

Thanks Eric - Solved. I thought marqueeing (sp?) the plan & rotating it was the same thing, since I was rotating everything... but it's not.

I rotated the plan 180 degrees (and got a warning regarding automatic dimension lines. Not sure why rotating something would require them being turned off. Before & after images shows the floor hatch is missing. I assume this shouldn't happen, but is there an alternative way to rotate an entire plan?
