    Help needed.

    Hello

    I recently made the move from AutoCAD to Chief Architect X5 and have using the software for about three weeks.

    I am currently at a standstill and I am unable to locate a proper solution to my problem.

    On standard AutoCAD, I would have this issue solved in about five minutes so this endeavor has left me frustrated. I am sure there is a simple solution out there.

    Anyways, what I am trying to do is create a tower entry with a plate height of 12'-0". For reference, the plate height for the rest of the house in 9'-0".

    Below is the PDF file of the of the elevations of the model home we build. Focus on the tower entry.

    With this being the current plan I have in X5. As you can see, the column on the left side is complete, but the one on the right which will be built over the roof as a pony wall is not there.

    How do I build the rest of the tower entry?

    Thanks in advance.
