This looks like one of Joe's very old macros.. Object type no longer reports the same, so without a checksum for nil, it will throw an error. might change the approach a bit, and redefine type in your code and then when you analyze type later in the code and maybe add a check for yourself:

use tab input to offset your line a specific distance from any snappable element you choose

post this in Q&A, this has something to do with your settings

This seems like a particular complex bit of code. How do we accumulate totals for custom object fields. The problem as I see it is making sure we are not accumulating every time a publisher changes its reported value...so we have to script in a checksum..maybe through a rescue? or is this some sort of array..how would you approach this?

Dustin did respond, it may be a while as the solution to the image input might be very complex

I could make this for you, I charge a fee. Dustins version of the substance tool uses a multiply/overlay with an image input so your image is not nearly bold enough to avoid being washed out by the multiplied color being applied. You'll see what I mean if you put a checkerboard pattern in the image input instead..the wood builder does a better job but doesnt have the pattern that you need. I contacted him, maybe he will have a patch

You posted last week in the HomeTalk forum not the Chieftalk forum

I think this warrants further discussion with chief tech support. I have a hard time believing your 3080 card has anything wrong with it.

POST 104 A late #freesymbolfriday for #ChiefArchitect. Whooopss.. How about a skylight frame for you rendering buffs. This symbol is an exterior fixture that does not report to schedule or show label. It will be painted with your default exterior door material when placed in plan. This should auto place on roof in plan view ...this should also be centered on your skylight that you draw first. Then just concentric resize based on a base skylight dimension of 24x48. So if you have a 24x60 skylight, just add 12" to the height (easier than trying to do the math with slope...this is a linear calc for this symbol.)

I would say this is heavy leaning toward a commercial building workflow with an RCP. I only ever see local muni preference of having it all on one sheet in the regions I work in nationally. Is this a requirement somewhere? I am just curous I would suggest, sending in a suggestion for additional electrical layers and pin it here and we can all go file a report and it might change. My preference is entirely for scalability, it's difficult to adopt someones custom stuff..I can't do it, I work with too many different Chief Techs..and a system like this is one I see as volitile...too many symbols and too much maintaence. I have all of my own symbols for z-wave..already too many to manage and go build a layer set around after designating outlet/light/switch leg/ etc. Even more so when you get into conditions where a symbol needs to be on both an RCP and a power plan. If nothing else, would encourage to push this to suggestions..we can get stuff to happen that way, as its a great thought @RobUSMC

I will be thankful for the day when chief gives us these items on a system-based custom layer..then its scalable globally and would be awesome

This is great for the individual user...but custom layers like this are such a pain to deal with as an outside contractor coming in and trying to help with your plan. Not to mention the maintainence of it and upkeep. As soon as you setup something custom, it can all bebroken by a code cycle, or a software cycle, or you want to change your approach...then you have to process all of these symbols again. I'm only mentioning this because I've been throughit all extensively and its a major pain in the long run. All of my custom layers are finally long gone and I am so much happier for it. If you plan on ousourcing at all, I highly encourage sticking as close to defaults as possible. I would argue that you burn just as many sheets having multiple sheets with different things on them as you would just sending your plan at a greater scale and using match lines.

Hey Maryland girl. Usually I would support prior versions but chief changed so much in terms of structure for library browser and toolbars that I had to start a large part of the templates from scratch. I would say make the jump into X15 though. I’ve got some new serious time saving features in the X15 templates

I wasn't even an idea then

take your patios..level 1, and set to pour/frame 4..(dont need to do this on fnd level) then select your fnd wall, and set to 18" footing height

I didnt manually drag anything

any reason not to change the footing height for that wall?

your patio pour number should not superceded that of the higher elevation slab, its a priority, not an order of operations. also..mark me as solved, haha

This is a super old screen, one of the first gen 4K 120hz. I’ve spent so much $$ on equipment the last 3 years, I’m not ready to drop any more on a screen, never had any problems reading text on this though I would prefer the ultra wide curved monitors honestly.. this thing is an ergonomic nightmare

Still working on mine, trying to figure out layout before I start rebuilding the desk itself. Should look like a spaceship desk when I’m done. i think progress pix are fun. both my desktop and laptop as well as gpu are all tapped into this desk. To the right is an 11’ screen tapped into them as well. The block work(mdf) flanks the 11’ screen with sound reactive and segmented LEDs that line the room

you quoted me by the way..solution is complicated if you wanted it as a cabinet..no backsplashes

it can be done..does it need to be a cabinet? The solution is complicated
