Secret Sauce...only took e a few hours to put this together Keep in mind bitrate is 1.2 to get under chieftalks darn 14mb cap..real version is 256mb and doesn't have the artifacts 1st Story Glenview Render Low Bitrate.mp4

This is a chief walkthrough..the speed ramps were in time to the music track I was going to use. super low bitrate to be able to post under the 14mb cap Chief Render Low.mp4

no not a dummy, thats a good question. Make a custom millwork symbol and adjust the bounding box of that symbol to be the depth of the cabinet. Then apply it as a shelf. You're very close to making something cool

Try what Ryan Suggested and turn those side pieces into doors..You can make this be a cabinet with no additional solids needed

You just dont need a default set for saved plan views is why I do it differently. I might do a different default set for different scales only. Your screen shots show the SPV defaults, so you couldve just set those and not used a default set. Then you have the power of the default set being able to designate something else

In Active Layer Display Options you can check Modify All Layer Sets and then do a Layer Search for "Labels", then at the bottom check the select all and then uncheck display

Well first up I will offer that I sell templates that take all of the hassle out of this..shameless plug. Layers are plan wide, you can create a custom layer(Though I advise people to make as few custom layers as possible for business scaling/onboarding complexity) but that layer wil exist across all layer sets. Also, you need to edit your active defaults for your saved plan view. This can be done by editing the active view and in the selected defaults panel, setting up your defaults for that view. The layer set for your active view only determines how layers will show up for that view, they don't determine annotations/dimensions/ etc.

I thought I responded in the other post but you should convert your circle based logs into polyline based for more predictable behavior

Convert to polygons before you cut

Ha, thats a pretty bad version to set just the way you want it since you aren't taking advantage of linked callouts and relink views as well as a few other features that completely changed my templates for faster sets

You can do alright with regular pbr. Needs a lil post processing though, a filter and some fake ies lights

Youre missing the part where he can't use ray tracing Also cap your samples and kick em down to like 50 Also turning sun to 500 is not neccessary, kind've a crutch really, depends on what you are trying to do

I would do away with your custom wall layers, they arent necessary, as you can add in components without messing with the wall assembly. Make the wall the default and then draw in with your new wall. Also easier to write a macro for your forumlas so that you can globally change parameters within that .plan file

ah okay...this largely has to do with the material properties of the flooring. You could do well with a material that has some movement in the roughness map to breack that up

Adjust the facet angle of your arcs on the polyline solid.

What settings are you using..looks like you aren't enabling raytrace...is this using a mac in your signature?

You can always pick up adapters, though if your monitors dont have a hdmi then youre going to have some pretty sub-par imaging. 3080 would be fine though the 4070 is a better option. Maybe wait just a bit so we can take a look at x16 beta whenever it comes out

it imports with UV mapping, tons of tutes online for blender. Its a pretty strong industry standard for modeling so worth learning

Don't use a shadowboard...its the nature of the shadwboard to extend your roof surface out to its extents. Use a gutter instead

there are no saved images in your cross sections or notes for what you are trying to accomplish, just an FYI

try blender

I'm from Oakland, my black dodge pickup was stolen, I miss her, 5 speed manual 4x4, yum. Headed up to tahoe in a couple of days because snow is far between over here. I just got back from Costa Rica, where if you put up a fence around your property, thats your property line. Regarding your material list stuff..you can always get anything with a Components panel to report to a material list the way that you want. I can point you in the right direction, just come back with your specific questions.

Nothing in Chief..., I was just saying that you need some method of consistently updating a file that is local and on your machine , such as an excel sheet, for chief to work with that excel sheet. Chief won't be able to pull data from a cloud source...not in any way that I know of

This was a confirmed bug report. Stems from any cabinet that has a molding, which I can workaround. regarding your question, I don’t believe chief can pull data from a website. So you would need something like a scraper or zapier to pull your cloud data into a spreadsheet so it could be read. All theoretically possible
