  1. 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
  2. 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.
  3. I thought I responded in the other post but you should convert your circle based logs into polyline based for more predictable behavior
  4. Convert to polygons before you cut
  5. 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
  6. You can do alright with regular pbr. Needs a lil post processing though, a filter and some fake ies lights
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. 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
  10. Adjust the facet angle of your arcs on the polyline solid.
  11. What settings are you using..looks like you aren't enabling raytrace...is this using a mac in your signature?
  12. 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
  13. it imports with UV mapping, tons of tutes online for blender. Its a pretty strong industry standard for modeling so worth learning
  14. Don't use a shadowboard...its the nature of the shadwboard to extend your roof surface out to its extents. Use a gutter instead
  15. there are no saved images in your cross sections or notes for what you are trying to accomplish, just an FYI
  16. 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.
  17. 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
  18. 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
  19. Perfect, thank you that’s what I assumed, happy tday
  20. No idea how alaskan got a full height superscript if this is a screenshot from chief anyone? Custom font? Some ruby vertical alignment method?
