  1. seems as if you may have two windows in the same spot
  2. thats not an option I want to take unfortunately. PM is saving me hours on each project and I wouldnt give that up
  3. 20-45 minutes on avg. I recently removed my backdrops library(13gb) from my user catalog. I deleted all but 8 projects and it takes the same amount of time Disk usage is next to nothing during a backup. If I were to just manually save all of the files from my programdata it takes only a couple of minutes This really takes the enjoyment out of the process. I currently have to create a backup if I want to output an updated toolbar configuration to my team. Next thing I will try is deleting my user library and textures directory just to reimport it again after the backup, which seems ridiculous.
  4. You can also use multiple copy with this checked: which requires a point
  5. Post your plan please. you can use wetransfer for free to share a link
  6. what would be a the reason for wanting to change layer sets from one floor to another?
  7. I'll share what is built in the Pro Plan. If you have an SPV set to Use Any Floor Then all you would need to do is duplicate the layout page that has this view sent to it: open your layout box of the duplicated page and then scroll to 2nd floor: Instead of duplicating so many SPV's for each possible floor It simplifies things a great deal
  8. I would not use symbols. I would use the reference plan tool draw 3 houses on 3 separate plans then use the xyz offsets in reference plan tool to position your houses.
  9. You can add this info to your signature. Also, Can you please provide your plan with the area in question bubbled
  10. You COULD... Export the Project File Open(import) the Project File Ignore the Duplicate Project Name Warning Rename the imported Project File You will have two separate projects now so I would then Rename the Plan and Layout and append "Version" as a suffix Drag them into the original project file so that they are all in one project OR what I think is easier is that you COULD Make a copy of your Plan file and Rename it Make a copy of your Layout file and Rename it Open the Layout and go to Tools/Layout/Referenced Plan File and Replace the original plan file that is linked with the plan file you created a copy of
  11. put this in suggestions, I also use chief for D&D and I like the suggestion
  12. Tagging onto mikes response I second Dropbox, no comparison to iCloud OneDrive or Google drive. I prefer blender over sketchup especially for its decimation tools and voxel modeling but if you know sketchup stick with sketchup. I use onenote but fan of Evernote. I use cursor AI for system design, i.e. folder organization and standardization. Hardware Logitech G604 is the greatest mouse ever created..I think the internet agrees, it's discontinued and sells for a 500 % markup from original MSRP. It's a 14 button mouse with antighosting and macro programmable keys Spacemouse pro wireless for your left hand. John schrader of chief experts has done some extensive troubleshooting of its problems in Chief and I think got it working perfectly. Might want to reach out to him Streameck is a great device. I use the radial menus of the spacemouse in conjunction with modifier keys on my g604 giving a potential 500+ hotkeys with on screen graphics.

  13. I'll be at the booth all day Wed the 18th for anyone that wants to come say hi and talk shop, learn some new tricks, or have some laughs with the chief sales floor crew and I
  14. Just FYI mark you no longer have to change the Y origin as that shifts the origin of the symbol, they added an additional function to change the inset. This makes it so that you can insert it into a cabinet OR insert without a cabinet without the Y offset messing up placement for one or the other
  15. no, my entire business is working with other designers and drafters, the above instructions is exactly how I share files back and forth with them
  16. the callout tool is the same whether you add 1 arrow or 4 arrows to it, give it a shot
  17. Happy to help. If you would like to just start with a training session to fix a few things and see what a working relationship may look like you can click on the scheduling link in my signature. Please note I am out of town for KBIS/IBS in Orlando next week
  18. The templates I sell are in their 10th year of development and 4th commercial year. The X17 versions alone had a dedicated four months of full time development. These are crowd funded systems, built specifically for the end user to deliver the best out of the box automation possible while limiting liability. The tools and annotations are designed to derive information directly from the model, creating a systematic and efficient workflow. Instead of relying on manual input, the system leverages pre-defined annotations and model-driven variables to produce consistent, reliable documentation. Each template includes a pre-configured project file with a wide range of scoped views already organized and sent to 12 different layout files. It includes six distinct title block styles and multiple viewer scopes, such as a design review set versus a construction build set, allowing you to quickly generate the appropriate deliverable for each phase of a project as soon as you start drawing your walls. Comes with over 1200 library items including a bunch of single click tools built into custom toolbars to make complicated tasks easy and accessible. That's my pitch, thanks for the mention Jason
