    I've run into it in previous versions of X17 to the OP, do you have grid snaps turned on, have you considered right aligning the text... and if you have auto width turned on for the text box consider turning it off. the program may try and size the box before the macro fires. Why are you using that particular macro? I would say that one is a risky one, there are so many conditions I can think of where that becomes a liability. Couldn't this be handled better in a detail or ceiling height macro?

    I was in early beta of X17 and my machines specifically had a number of issues that carried over which caused migration issues unbeknownst to me. I did several hundred hours worth of updates to my library and came to find out I had to wipe chief from the registry and start a fresh install and import my library. The library at this point was already missing textures from the problems with migration and I was unwillingly to try and migrate my old catalogs as they didn't have all of the new work I had performed

    FYI the OOTB default is 250 samples, 20,000 is a setting you put in place at some point you can often get away with 30 samples if your scene has enough lumens. You can also turn on DLSS realtime for designing in live raytrace or raytracing walkthroughs super fast. 2000 samples is way overkill for most shots. A spherical 360 photo is okay, but an HDR backdrop is preferred as it has a radiance channel that can take the place of using the reproduce sun settings in chief. For your older machine in most shots you can turn your bounces to 2 and 2 and adjust upward if you see problems. PS, seriously turn on DLSS for your walkthroughs
