  1. Worm is doing that, the Interior Layer still shows up in plan view.
  2. Funny I almost mentioned its other uses specifically because I thought you might roast me. haha
  3. The Delete Surface Tool was specifically designed to temporarily modify 3d geometry in order to capture that geometry as a symbol with the Convert to Symbol Tool. It will not do what you are looking for it to do and is not a bug unfortunately. Naming conventions, classifications, and good old construction-based locution run amok in the software and have been pointed out on many occasions. The function you are seeking for automatically changing wall interior layers by room type should be a standalone request and I'm sure a few people will jump on board as it has been suggested a few times...as well as the option to have Interior layers of a room automatically change intersection options to go outside of the room as in the case of a shower finish. An offset if you will. Wall Type Exterior and Interior Layers being broken into Layers has also been suggested many times and is one I push on about year after year. I would suggest you turn off the Room Interior Dimensions layer and forget that it ever existed. If I draw an L shaped room and send it to my builders with that layer on I'd quickly be nicknamed The Dodo Bird. I haven't read all of your posts, but I get the sense that you want to change the interior layers of a wall without having to draw a new wall. I would suggest you save your various wall types to your library. Very fast way to draw a new wall with a high level of accuracy for your average use case. While you are setting up your standards I would suggest you add the Define Wall Types Tool to a Toolbar. A few less steps to be able to modify wall definitions. Make sure to use the Save As Template Tool when your finished. Quick to look up any mentioned tool in the forums by getting into your Customize Toolbar Tool by right clicking a toolbar tray. Hope that helped ..and welcome to the forum!
  4. Not if you don't want to. I tend to duplicate my sheets as I go from the project browser.
  5. You could create a macro to handle double digits if you don't want the 0 to preface 10,12, etc.
  6. Dev team is still focusing on Stair Tool improvements for X-13...was pretty happy with that news since they gave us a significant upgrade to stairs in X-12
  7. I may be confused...what method of numbering are you using? I use the XX-# inserted into the page label. In this way you can always type in XX-1.1 to manually insert a page without reordering the other labels.
  8. Yes, without providing a tutorial, the short answer is to make new CAD symbols to all of your fixtures and save the fixtures with their new CAD symbols to library to use later. One time setup, years of efficiency.
  9. It only makes sense that chief develop future versions to incorporate Real time raytracing, which the quadro card will excel at. Stay tuned! My interest in the graphics tablet is in hopes that it replace my iPad with the added benefit of being able to run programs that my iPad cannot.
  10. I have this one which is somewhat similar but only looks good for features up to 4' in width before the repeating pattern overwhelms the effect- RABS Flagstone.calibz Let me know if that works.
  11. I don't think an image or link properly uploaded
  12. Happy to help you Joe, anyway to get any example images for what you want?(or is that kind‘ve the point of the request? Haha)
  13. I ordered the business model with the Quadro 3000 RTX card. Ships the 26 or later and will review in short order. No thunderbolt port, big shame. The big plus however, was the improved dedicated graphics card on the tablet portion, effectively making it a graphics tablet. The quadro card is future proof for my general use for the expected usefulness-cycle of a laptop, in my current workflow. Figure I will benefit for 4-6 years from the device. Am bummed that it doesn't have thunderbolt, but I have been improving my network setup to hopefully climb that hurdle of expiring hardware.
  14. I'm guessing you're right, my draw order was backwards apparently. I always drop in windows before cabs.
  15. Okay, jokes on me...how long have I been missing out on this? Windows auto size when placed where a backsplash is present..amazing Chief. Thank you
  16. You see my response about the main layer only debacle ?
  17. Elevations don't align, is that by intent?
  18. For that layerset, designate the exterior and interior layers to follow line style of the layer. Turn the line style for walls to invisible for that layerset. Then override the middle layers to solid line. That way you can uncheck main layer only and still only see the main layers. Overlooking any fill styles.
  19. Agh, MJ beat me to it...my joke's not as funny Unless their is a reason for having everything in the main layer for alignment on wall framing etc. I would reorganize the wall assembly as stated
  20. I can already tell that your two pieces of bread are in the main layer with the tuna salad in the middle. Breads always gonna get soggy that way. Maybe you can separate them to the surface?
  21. It comes into play when a lot of CAD is used in plan. Also comes into play with custom material files, especially when mirror materials are used in a room with a lot of high texture resolution materials.
