You have PPX17, there are upgrade codes for PPX18 in your accounts tab. PPX18 has an automatic CSV reader that is already setup for you in a CAD detail. See this chapter: https://renerabbitt.github.io/ppx18-manual/?chapter=jobtread-buildertrend-spreadsheet-linking

zooming shouldnt be slow. you may want to send views as plot plan instead of live view and set your layout to update on demand instead of always updating views. You can always just send a CAD detail to your template layout page from your plan where your project information is stored. Create a CAD detail, create your info such as client/designer information in that CAD detail, and send that CAD detail to layout. Leave your plan gutted and this will become your template project. See video for example: 260730 (6).mp4

3dConnexion driver registers as a HID device with MacOS so the setting "ignore built-in trackpad when mouse or wireless trackpad is present" toggled off for the trackpad is your first option. Regarding the device falling asleep, when the 3dmouse goes idle, an event timer through MacOS likely puts the device to sleep through power management. You might be able to force a wake state hit command+spacebar and type Terminal then press your return key and type in caffeinate -iu -t 28800 this will tell the OS not to timeout for 8 hours If you want to cancel this go to that terminal window and press ctrl+c Dont close the terminal window, leave it open, then test your 3dmouse regarding mac options, youre limited to 4 radial menus, no workaround for that

This takes a bit of specialized scripting and approach but I would still ask the question why do you need this why aren't you just inputting your project information in the layout only?

I'm just now seeing this. Fyi I think I mentioned in another thread to show me a function and I could give you an 260730 (3).mp4 function. What you show in vector works is what chief called an advanced spline. It's nearly the same function

I do this as well but am definitely having double click issues...I will switch to another mouse to test. I don't plan on turning off logi options like joe since I use hotkeys.

If you are using a template project(pre-populated layout from plan, then this requires a pretty custom setup. why do you need this in your plan file? If instead you are using the New Project work flow, then in preferences this will help you: Personally I use a separate plan for all spec and title block info which pre-populates a bunch of different layout templates for me

3d connexxion mouse has entered the chat hope you all reported this

So I actually did notice the same thing and I thought it was just my mouse because I was noticing it on someone else's machine when I was remotely connected but it would make sense of course if it was just an issue across Chief Architect We should all report it

Just do what I do, export the file..its the same as Save As but better. then it lives in your cloud service. A lot of additional function comes with PM. TMM does not have a way to have subfolders, Lance is just showing an image of a suggestion.. it took me a second to understand what that graphic was as well

Missing step is probably what carrie mentioned, converting your objects to symbols. that tutorial covers every step, you might go through it at half speed. Also note that there is a link to the plan used as a utility for making the arches in the description of the video. That plan makes it a lot easier to make your arched cabinet

It's just tricking you I to thinking that .. it's been a problem forever, that's just showing you that layer set because you're in that view. When you switch back to another view and look at a value being reported from a macro it will not be that section layer set. Section and elevation layer set conditional checks don't work.. I switched to showing window callouts in section for that reason since I couldn't get my window labels to conditionally change to just schedule number in elevations for this exact reason

He only drew the walls where he needed them. There are no walls where the cabinets are You may have bumps turned off, either turn off bumps and place your cabinet or hold the ctrl key when moving your cabinets to override bumps

Start a new thread for this. Are you using plot lines for your view ?

See my response from earlier. Use plot lines ..send your new and send your existing in the same xy sheet space using plot lines

Old mouse disease. Blow compressed air into your mouse. Certain mfr like Logitech are known for this

Haha I hear you. Its hard to tell you a better way without being hands on. Sounds like iron Mike stores a lot of those macros in the object and the object then lives in the library. So it brings in the macro only when used

been asking for this for foreverrrr My macros now are just big lambda hash outputs so that I dont have as many and call what i need to call. I use a similar concept but implemented in a different way, since its personally easier for me to distribute a template instead of distributing library items. I use TMM to store globals which store procedures. Library objects then will never have a conflict with the plans macro versions and the plans macros always dictate the version. I got sick of fighting the library storing macros, so they dont anymore, they just have a call and self execute once they hit the plan. I have a polyline that warms up everything up for me nice and toasty as a pre-cache for the globals so that they don't rebuild every time an object is placed

The only way is to create a backup and then to export everything from this folder settings folder PLEASE log a suggestion, its a sorely missed feature

260726 (2).mp4

Lmao.. surprised this guy put that up for his cover art.. I don't even need to click on that, bedrooms without closets, a powder room serving this wing, an island up against a wall.. get outta here

Please share your project file. You can use free services like we transfer if you don't have a cloud service

If you use the Edit area tool and select everything that's visible with a large marquee selection and then use copy paste and paste this into a brand new empty plan Are the issues still there?
