  1. OOTB UV mapping from Chief: Stretched UVs, upside down UV's, turned sideways UVs, no laminated edge UVs, uniform interior UVs. This is not really conducive to providing manipulatable 3rd party cabinet symbols. Sure looks great for imagery, but I would have a lot of questions for the vendor I was providing for and discussion about the limitations of the export from Chief
  2. Wasnt aware that bluebeam interfaced with 3d. For Rendr you can always use CAD to Walls feature but I would take a look at my response above regarding the parametric component basis of Chief.
  3. What exactly are you trying to achieve? You can do all of what you are asking but using the CAD tools and converting your cad to Terrain features/Roads/Driveways
  4. We can already import and export 3d. If you are refering to importing something that then works within chiefs native parametric modal modeling...then I would guess "likely never." I wouldn't mind the ability to manipulate vertices though. But at that point, why not just use blender which is free. Do you have an example of what you are proposing it do?
  5. dae is a collada file which blender can open...and oh man I would be weary about offering that service. Chiefs cabinets are not properly UV mapped and have no flexibility in panel thickness as well as some other things.
  6. Blender is free and a more acceptable world wide modeling standard, export to dae and then import export to your obj. any particular reason you need it as an obj?
  7. Post your .plan file please
  8. I would hope they put a concave flashing.. that membrane heats and cools enough times it’ll break on a hard turn with no backing IMO
  9. Hey Scott, Probably put a lot more flashing details in unless youre handling this in a separate detail which I would reference. If not balooning through then would fasten the parapet wall to your decking and interrupt the insulationl Only thing holding your parapet wall is the sheething(presumably) See detail below I just drew up. Flashed cap overlaps wedge and exterior surfaces. Flash the parapet wall and lap over your exterior flashing(Under your exterior surface) as well as interior parapet flashing. Flashing at interior of parapet wall overlaps cant(if cant is necessary). Would stiffen that parapet wall up with double top plate. Like others said, no need for parapet insulation.
  10. should really just be the block layer in the main layer, the rest should go to exterior or interior layers
  11. is that a section of wall or is that a backsplash? share a video or 3d view or plan file please
  12. I am curious as to why you are needing to reference the layers at all? set it and forget it? Alternatively, just label the layers you need with a prefix and then put that prefix in the search bar..there is your filtered results
  13. totally scene dependent and can be from a great number of different reasons. Do you have a roof on the building, what direction is your sun, do you have enough lights in the scene? plenty more questions to be asked as well..are you using a backdrop.
  14. See photo...can we do this with out current window dbx options? Not in front of computer to try it out
