    There's always been some 'edit layout' work in elevations, the more complex the plan, the more work in layout needed. But this is something new to vX1.4. I bet disappearing cabinets in wall elevations is related to this. Ever since they tweaked the vector cameras- open GL.......

    I agree - new to X1.4. I haven't had the disappearing cabinets, but I am getting the elevation crud and don't like it!

    "Merge lines" hasn't done much for me. Turning off the ceilings for elevations views is a good idea - thanks both Allen and Jim. Still - it's the dreaded "W" - I'm hoping they squash this one soon.

    btw - I had one totally FUBAR elevation that also had a busted layout box. It crashed Chief every time I edited the layout box. They said that problem is related to arrows in the layout, but I couldn't help but notice the only layout box affected was the one with walls and ceilings showing through the roofs.

    Everybody - please make as many careful observations as you can about your work leading up to these problems and send them in. I think this is affecting more than just those venting here - more info might help them solve it.

    I wrote code in 1984 to make my Sinclair 100 - so I used to be a programmer! So I can say with authority how easy it is to program Chief features! ;-)
