  1. Keep in mind you can always type note text into the above and below line and it can report to schedule and has an OIP..making it pretty dang impressive for certain uses such as creating a schedule that never makes it to your condocs but instead is a list of all notes on your plan so that you can update any of them from the schedule by clicking on open row object or simply locating them. If we ever get word wrap, I would use it exclusively
  2. Ill say this to my dying day...there is no reason not to have a single tool that can do everything that both tools can do...its up to the end user to make a division in their brain for the use of the tool...lets not think of it as the note or callout tool...think of it as the annotation tool. For all I care, leave it as the note and callout tool but give both tools the complete capabilities of the other tool
  3. Yes you are right Yes I agree 90% (There are instances when you DO NOT want automatic numbering and may want to skip a number) I also still just want one Note/Callout Tool With schedules for both Layout and Plan for a variety of uses We both know this
  4. You only need the schedule, layout was open just to show that it works
  5. I'm not sure what you mean, this seems like an odd action. Here:
  6. I totally misread Rob, thought we were talking about docking, youre right teatime. and yes sounds like hes just dragging it to a row as opposed to dragging on top of an existing tool. Not entirely true haha
  7. I model it onsite in 1-3 hours with someone shooting a laser and pulling tape
  8. Point cloud can be converted to a OBJ file and imported as a symbol to use as a reference. It works… but it is WAY slower to draw then just taking laptop to site with a helper. it works great as a backup. Canvas is garbage.. sorry Canvas rep that scrapes all architecture websites… it’s not your app… it’s the absolutely terrible Lidar sensor that’s in the idevices. They don’t even come close to 1/3 of the accuracy of a professional Lidar device like intel realsense. The point data looks like a very poor clay model made by a child. It’s a wonder we can ever get anything remotely accurate out of it even with supplemented photogrammetry. accurate point cloud data in future should be able to get us walls…we shall see.
  9. Unlock your toolbars then edit
  10. No just simply pointing out that you have a ton of individual toolbars with only 1 tool in each
  11. just drag a tool from another toolbar ontop of a different toolbars tool
  12. You need to copy the DATA files over from your other machines toolbars folder outsied of Chief. You also need to copy over the pngs that associate with those tools if you want the same images. Also way easier to manage toolbars if you group those items into one toolbar instead of a bunch of toolbars like you have shown
  13. I guess you’re missing that I don’t believe you, haha, or better yet, what am I missing? How do you take a spherical panos on the iPhone, I would honestly love to know? I have taken 360 panos on the iPhone and the results were underwhelming, but I only have a 12 pro max.. and for a regular pano we get a lot of clipping even with the 0.5 for context, my panos that he is referring to are downscaled to 12K to 16K and razor sharp across the whole sphere with even exposure
  14. You can, but he was responding to another post where I had a complete spherical pano. iPhone can do it with a stitching app, kind've. Still the same problem where you can't truly get an accurate pano from inside of a house unless you model it or do a ton of photo fill
  15. still as many clicks to change back..think of it as a tool..edit view, switch default..draw, then do it again. Even faster if you just make a SPV with that arrow default, then you can hover over SPVs, mouse wheel down once and have the second arrow style defaulted..requires a new layer set and SPV
  16. This specifically is the default arrow style for your active view, just as fast to change the default. 3 Clicks
  17. simple site plan, drop some vehicles, drop some houses as symbols, build your roads, put in your trees, build your driveways and your topo, then render a 3d pano. Thats a decent amount of work just for a one-off project though...I would need to really like the client
  18. So my best versions are done with a tripod....easier still if you have a gimbal that can do automatic shots at intervals and degrees. Takes 22 shots to do a perfect stitched pano. You will never get a true view from a house unless it is an undeveloped lot. Most of my best panos are done from the front yard, so you'll only get like 220 degrees of usable horizontal rotation of the sphere from it. You can instead do a shot from each window and fill in pixels if you like. Up to you what the best approach is. Alternatively you can model a site and render it out realistically as a pano. Which is what I have done on a few of my backdrops.
  19. make another thread and tag me or DM me
  20. Ha speak of the devil, this was a nice review from Ken Anywho, as mentioned previous, happy to help you here as well..try a few things... Customize your toolbars and add Active Dimension Defaults Make a Dimension Default that has a 18" Primary Offset and 12-18" secondary. Change your reach if you are picking up too many Objects Remove everything but cabinets for that dimension default Make your elevation view default to that new dimension default. Go watch these videos for general education, this is a playlist, 2-5 min videos, and like 24 of them
