Ahh, I see the disconnect, goto Default Settings\Doors\Interior Doors\Materials and you will find your trim, exterior and interior.
-
Just to be clear, the Residential Template in Chief Architect Premier X-12 under Default Settings\Interior Door\Materials\ has a designation for both Interior and Exterior Trim. Will you check to confirm?

Wanted to bring this one back up, especially considering canvas' new service. Scan to Chief files work brilliantly but they will not use the end-users template plans. This makes a CAD detail export option crucial to the success of updating a current plan file with templatized standards in CAD. PLEASE add a CAD export option. So important to us who collaborate.

Realistic Rendering Software after Chief
Renerabbitt replied to duckbill4375's topic in General Q & A
TM has its own water cube that works well for pools. TM also has its own waterfall effect, add some eye candy, add some fog-See below For thea, I would model the waterfall structure and place rocks at the landing area and use the sketchup plugin clothworks with pins at the top and drape a surface over the entire model. Basically a cloth simulation . With the right settings, the cloth will bounc and drape as needed to look realistic in thea. More labor intensive for sure. 2021-04-19 13-12-58.mp4 -
I have the Surface Book 3 Business class and it is/was a dream for as-builts. I just switched to the iphone 8 pro max with Lidar and had success with the first scan. I brought an apprentice to do the scan and while he was at it I went around and jotted down some control measurements in my phone. Took the two of us a 1/2 hour to do a 2000 sq ft 2-story home. I spent as much time in the office as I would've in the field with the surface book, but the convenience of being in the office is worth the investment for me.

Still a ridiculous requirement to me. My own home has only 2-3 hours of direct sun each day until summer. Old growth 100 yr pines keep me shaded. -
Realistic Rendering Software after Chief

Hey JC, Twinmotion does just fine for most interior shots. It won't compare to Thea, but certainly has its place in my toolbag for budget renders. I use it specifically for video walkthroughs. Here is a quick interior render from TM: Keep in mind this shot could be worked a lot more, but this kitchen was made to look good in video only. You can add higher resolution textures, add shadow decals, work the glass more, add more detailed reflection maps. etc. Thea has a bunch of pro tools for getting the best out of a shot. One of my favorites being the ability to round the edge of any geometry. Nearly nothing in a kitchen shot has razor sharp edges. You're right about part 6, I missed that. Parts 1-7 were done over a year ago in a single week during my first and last venture into trying adderall , I've had trouble picking them back up as they take a good 6-7 hours of solid focus to prep and produce. I've got part 10 in the works right now. Here is the Final shot from that series: -

My man, can we get the bump channel back in the tile builder?....very very valuable for use as a texture source to create a pattern file and then reload the texture source for say a marble tile. -

Do you have images or PDFs in the layout? Can you do a dropbox share link so we can see?

Brilliant, this post just reminded me of like 5 of my favorite @dshall vids.

I wrote a very beginner level set of area macros that are now broken. The macro is supposed to list area from the owner polyline. Instead, it updates the 4 other macros of the same type with the area of the most recently opened polyline. Confused as to why this is happening since my understanding is that the value would be taken from the owner polyline only. Here is one of the macros: $plot_E_Cov = area "#{$plot_E_Cov.round(0)}"
-
I must've missed this with the release of X-12 but what a great shortcut. Name your Saved Plan View with "-%box_scale%" at the end of the name and the layout file will translate the macro to the box scale. EDIT: only works when checking Specify Label. Then the automatic label carries through

Adjust the offset in the edit symbol dbx. Pace at the front of a cabinet, then multiple copy at your desired interval. Looks good in PBR: RABS Stackable LED.calibz

Also, adding search attributes

I would be using a different software for what I provide to you..Raytrace is a fickle ex-wife

You've got a TON of transparent surfaces and very few light sources..a scene like this just takes a while. I think I gave you my email in past...send me your file and I can run this for you on my main machine if you can wait a day or two

I think I've changed a few things about this method, namely using a ceiling instead of a molding for the pool water. then the crown molding(the coping) is just offset. Molding profiles should look correct in your room dbx, not sure I understand the molding question. Im not sure I follow the voids predicament without a video but you could certainly make those steps with your solid tools. Hope that helps

Created a method for this that is slightly convulated but overall very accurate.
