  1. POST 115 I built out a custom search engine with an accompanying chat bot for code interpretation and lookup. Use the Chat bot to find your code citation and the search engine next to it to fact check or expand Check it out here:https://www.rabbittdesign.net/code Click in my signature to navigate to our new forum for more free symbols CLICK ME TO GO BACK TO THE INDEX!!!

  3. I do training on this stuff if you want to take it further, this is a chief only interior:
  4. This one you are commenting on is Twinmotion but there are others like this one here that are Chief only with 0 photoshop:
  5. A video is attached to rope you in Here is the plan file with instructions on how to set this up for yourself: Example Porch Extension Plan.plan Porch Extension Teaser.mp4
  6. How to make custom cabinet doors, usually I would use a custom countertop and molding but lets try out a window instead
  7. thats because we switched to multi bounce path tracing..you would still see it if you set bounces to 1
  8. This was patched in X16
  9. I have done this for a few manufacturers but all from an index and match system...there are typically only standard rules up until you get a one off that follows no rules to speak of which is why I switched to indexing an entire catalog, then my macros look for a match based on parameters such as size and num_doors/drawers, size of panels, etc.
  10. I literally want to convert my plan template from imperial to metric. I have put it off for 2 years now because of how much work it is. I want to convert all of my CAD details to a system that works in metric, I want to run all of my same macros without having to re-script for different inputs and formatters, and I want to transfer defaults and cad blocks and text styles and wall types etc. There is NO easy way to do this, it is a lot of work
  11. This was to illustrate the point of the dimensionless 1:1 conversion and why you can't simply "convert" imperial to metric. There is no tool for this, what are you suggesting? Chief does a unitless import of defaults, which means all of your text style dimensions will be wrong for instance
  12. Bo that is a separate function. Take a text box that is 4 inches with size 4 font and copy it from imperial to metric and it will resize as a 1:1 number to number context. It does not convert the dimensions
  13. All of these answers missing one very crucial bit of info. If you have something set as 5" in your imperial plan defaults, it will be 5mm in your metric plan. Chief just sees these as numbers not dimensions so its a 1:1 translation. I know this because i've been working for countless hours trying to recreate my templates in metric
  14. Send in a suggestion, it's not capable, I've been asking for this since they introduced style pallets https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/28956-room-type-to-style-palette/?do=findComment&comment=230884
  15. Make your text box the same size as the size of the extent of your symbol in place of the lines you have to delete
