    Layout problems

    Hello all

    I am having difficulty with elevation in layouts.

    i have been using Chief for over 2 years and have always completed my working drawing in Autocad.

    I would love to be able to complete the job in Chief but always have problems with the layouts and seem to fall back to AutoCad all the time.

    Here is an example of a problem.

    I have sent my elevations to the layout pages. There always seem to be lines that appear in the elevations that need to be edited out.

    Take for instance the front and rear elevations. There are walls being picked up and showen through the roof surface. I have tried to stop this by pulling down the wall height, having stop at ceiling height.

    It does not show like this in the camera view in the plan drawing, only in the layouts. It is not in the side view as you can see.

    Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong.

    I don't want to hear that I need to use the edit button in the layout view to remove these line, because if that is the answer I may as well continue to send the drawings to Autocad as this never happens there.

    Any help that can be given would be great.

    Thanks
