  1. People can always remove the 3d column... This was more for illustrating the font remapping
  2. You're missing a step then. Explode it if it came in as a cad block ...else make sure it's a closed polyline. Can't convert a open polyline to a solid
  3. New #Youtube Shorts video about building an arched alcove the fast and easy way in Chief Architect X17 This is in my SHORTS playlist for quick #instructionaldesign videos. Enjoy!
  4. I'm doing it a bit differently Joe. I am actually remapping for full height superscript and rich-text like outputs:
  5. Ended up figuring out something else, but I’ve got another question for you so windows, doors, cabinets, and rooms will all go look at a hash full of user options on how and the end-user wants to display their labels and what conventions are used and then all of those objects, then get pushed to a remap function Which remap some of the character outputs to a different part of a font, and it turns out that this was creating a major bottleneck..a lineup if you will at the font remapped which pushed me to change the user options to a global hash as well as the font remapped to a global call But can you think of maybe another method for the font remapped to keep it lightweight and accessible without having to write it into each individual macro that utilizes its function? Can a lambda be accessed simultaneously by all objects like a global can?
  6. Who has some clever methods to initialize globals without the need of opening an object? I would love it if I didnt have to remember to open something in order for my schedules to populate from initalized macros. I know Joe has asked for this a billion times. Has anyone come up with workarounds?
  7. The pro 3 camera is very accurate since it mixes photogrammetry and a professional grade lidar sensor. Lidar from your phone will be very poor. Lidar on exterior is ok for somet things, though I personally don't see a ton of need there. I will say it only takes me 2-4 hours with a helper to measure an entire place directly into chief and take photos and do a phone lidar scan for backup.
  8. Certainly. I typically order a matterpak which is an obj file conversion of the matterport scan then I slice it in blender as well as decimate it. Then import in units of meters as a symbol and save it in a plan file that youwill reference. Reference it so that you arent constantly rebuilding a heavy scene. (The scan can be a 1M poly on up)
  9. Export your project to Dropbox and sharit..just keep in kind you may want to delete the project from project management after you export since it will be an outdated copy once your colleague imports and works on it
  10. You CAN however safely write a script for task scheduler to backup these files to another drive when chief architect is not running
