  1. Hey Paul, hit the quote button next time and it will alert me feel free to shoot me an email. renerabbitt@gmail.com I've done walkthroughs for modular home companies in the past, shoot me a message
  2. T is the hotkey for temp dimensions, are you possibling turning that off?
  3. So this is too much to handle in a simple text response, I might encourage you to purchase some training, but I could show you how to do all of this and do it very fast and very accurately using tab-input and edit offset as well as reference snaps. It honestly almost the same process as just placing a model. Regarding the longetude and latitude data, veary easy to write a macro that reports the offset and even takes the circumference of the earth in mind.

  5. Assuming this has the same stretching problems that the OP is asking about or did you figure something clever?
  6. To be perfect you would have to make different size door for each size of door that you needed in order to keep the stiles and rails uniform. This has to do with stretch planes and stretch zones. For this symbol to work you would need dual stretch zones which is a feature ive been requesting for years
  7. ok I'm learning something here, you mean to say that smoothing angle only affects the outside bounds of a mesh as opposed to all faces of a mesh? clever, understood
  8. I would look to joes macros first to see if that handles what you want it to handle. My system is custom built depending on the company needs and includes a bunch of tools, a template, new toolbars and symbols: https://www.rabbittdesign.net/shop/p/automatic-chief-architect-cabinet-pricing-system
  9. I Can give drawer slides and drawer box if someone commissions me to do so. Can handle it with symbols or user-inpout variables or IFTTT logic. Not producing a CNC file, I would post that in suggestions as we don’t have control over frame width in terms of graphics though I can do a lot on the macro side
  10. He can account for all of this. I can do the same. Give the user some configurable global variables for variable pricing and specification. I can even build an advanced pricing model based on all types of data from the cabinet publishers:
  11. See what I wrote above Can you explain this in a bit more detail? why would placing a cube around a mesh improve UV mapping within Chief? Is this some internal thing we don't know about? What is the point of placing all meshes at a same origin point? I can see maybe doing this if you are trying to isolate a scan of something say from its stand like a tripod etc. I think we are missing some context on this post.
  12. And @robdyckaorry was traveling today. My preference is Polycam. yea you can import it but in some instances you’ll be fighting chiefs native and very impressive symbol smoothing which can goof up your UV mapping. Also please note if you’re not decimating your mesh prior to an import, you’re likely bringing in an object with a HUGE poly count. for your fish, try setting symbol smoothing to 1 degree…. Does that fix your UVs?
  13. There are already some feature requests for handling of objects seperate from layers. I'd have to do a search. Kind've lumps in with creating layer groups for better management of resources within rendering large spaces
  14. If you even need multiple saved plan views. You can always save it to one saved plan view with the reference's layer set on the correct floor and the saved plan view set to use any floor....copy layer set which only has the post's layer on, then in layout, specify which floor you want displayed.
  15. Just an FYI, far more dynamic and resource friendly to use reference displays with correct offsets. That way every plan is dynamically linked..instead of creating a bunch of high poly count models.
  16. me? no I was literally the first person to show an as-built demonstration utilizing it in X11 Beta- I used 2 separate plans
  17. Are they on a PC and where was the file location of the original file?
  18. would need to see the plan file...would also strongly advise you to stop using the point-to-point dimension tool..good way to take on liability on errors real quick
  19. See vid 231102 (7).mp4
  20. There is a Make Coplanar tool as well as a Join Roof Planes tool in your Edit Toolbar when you select a roof plane.
  21. Baselines are kindve all over the place but you can you just switch to manual edited ceiling hole
