447Debbie Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Why do these angled soffits revert back to square after I save the file and reopen it? I even tried sending it to someone that had Chief X12, and the same thing happened to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
447Debbie Posted August 9, 2023 Author Share Posted August 9, 2023 I found a work around. Create the angled soffit with the lower part in the back, then transform it vertically. This seems to stay in place when you close the file and reopen it. EDIT A DAY LATER to add: For what it's worth, the work around doesn't fully work either, I just found out. Some of the soffits tend to revert back to square, for no apparent reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Or you can make them with a wedge shape placed on top of a rectangular soffit or closed shape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
447Debbie Posted August 10, 2023 Author Share Posted August 10, 2023 I couldn't get the wedge shape to work. For what it's worth, the work around doesn't fully work either, I just found out.

Rookie65 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I use that combination all of the time when doing a chimney with a sloped section. Not sure what the trouble is you're having. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

447Debbie Posted August 11, 2023 Author Share Posted August 11, 2023 Thanks Solver. I think using the slab and wedge will work. I'll have to revert back to floor plan view because as I try to move it in perspective view it's movement isn't what is expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
