  1. Your Working SPV got designated to use the Active Layer Set. Change the default by editing the active view to use the working layer set instead of the whatever the foundation SPV is using
  2. Still planning on showing X16 at the booth?
  3. Apparently we're fighting now, my previous symbol wasn't good enough? Fine Here's one with a more realistic base and custom texture, set to include in schedule as shelf on the cabs shelf layer with options set to mount to wall. I'm not petty you're petty Double wall shelf-3 tier.calibz
  4. This isnt a disagreement, we are in agreement. Dropbox business uses the same save and sync method as Dropbox personal. To clarify working "Live" with dropbox and chief architect does not mean you are working on a file that is being hosted online. You are working on a file that is being hosted on your machine and then synced to the dropbox account once closed, which is EXACTLY why this happens: The problem Dave is having is that the end user thinks he can work from a file that is in an online only dropbox account that does not do "active syncing" to their machine in a folder that is associated with Dropbox. So Dave who has an active sync established through the Dropbox App on his computer is sharing a link with the colleague, and the colleague is clicking on the link in his dropbox online account, which in turn is being downloaded to their machine where it lives as a non-sync copy on some arbitrary section of their respective machine. This file then has no means of syncing back to Dropbox..it is just a "dumb" copy. The key difference here is that Kevin has associates that all have Dropbox syncing to a folder on their respective machines, and in this fashion, this is no different than having a scraper constantly checking a website.
  5. Wait wait wait don’t delete anything. I think you should hire some help or call db. you and your colleague have your own Dropbox accounts. That’s as it should be, one of you should have ownership of the project folder and share that folder via Dropbox share to the other person account who will click add to Dropbox on their end. both sides should be syncing to their desktop. Your colleague who is working “from online” is the problem. There is no “working from online” in Dropbox, all that means is that they are downloading the file and working on it, which is not the same as working on a file that’s in an active sync location on their desktop. thats just downloading something and working on a “dumb” copy
  6. there is typical a surface at the outer bounds of the bounding box, this one was easy to spot. Here you go: Double wall shelf-3 tier.calibz
  7. one of you may not be properly added to the dropbox or have it added to their dropbox or have it approproiately linked to their dropbox account and be set to actively syncing
  8. I think I mentioned this before but you should not be both working on the same file at the same time. Instead, you should be making a copy of the containing folder and you will work on the files within that folder and then shut down and let it sync. Then your colleague should be making a copy of that newly synced folder, and work from the files within. My guess is that your colleague or you have the file still open and thus chiefs file locking is happening and so dropbox has a redundency issue and is not syncing because of it
  9. I really think a replace from library approach would work better in this case. One symbol reports included and has a blank cad block and the layer is always turned on and the symbol has no geometry just a big bounding box, then a custom placed library object that you hover over and click and then its placed correctly and reports everything under the sun from the OIP
  10. Just do this with a symbol and a custom schedule and redraw your symbol's cad block to represent the graphic you need. Not a matter of displaying or not displaying a layer, but rather placing a symbol. Tie it to a Custom Placed Library Object in your toolbar and that'd be lighting fast.
  11. I have a newer version that does a bit more in my pro plan template but this one should still work great for all intensive purposes. Go into CAD/Text/Text Macro Management then start a new macro, set to evaluate on an object level, name it, then in your window default label, click the macro drop down and find it in your user macros

  15. I would seriously consider waiting just a bit longer for X16 beta as we might get a feature for import and export of CAD details, which would just save a #%^&$ load of tiome
  16. If you were rocking a TITAN before I would say saf-to-say someone wanted you to have the best available. In that case, a 4080 or 4090 RTX card on the nvidia side, or if you don;t want all the driver fuss I love the 7900 XTX. I have both the 4090 and (2) 7900 XTX's
  17. That's a TDR error, and yes its typically a drivers issue on your card. Is the card in your signature correct?which driver version are you using, version number and studio or gaming?
  18. He wants an IFTTT setup where if a text box is toggled to display, an ordered list will populate that this particular text box is set to display
  19. The OP was talking about a text box and kindve implying a plumbing line diagram or something of the sort such as a CAD block
  20. Nice work Mark, I mean it. only problem I see with this is that whatever the element it is, it would need to be something that reports to schedule. I think instead maybe they could do this on the layout said using linking features. Need to think about it for a sec
