Chief architect looks in 2 places for missing texture files. 
Your Textures Folder
Or in the same folder that the plan file exists in. What DB is suggesting is you make a backup of the plan and include textures so that your coworked can extract the zip file and have all of the textures in the same directory as the plan file
Alternatively you could transfer all of the files in your texture directory into their machines texture directory.
PLEASE NOTE, never a good idea to have your core data files be syncing to a cloud being accessed by multiple machines, so if you do plan on managing resources via the cloud each machine should have a unique short url, robs computer/documents/chief../textures etc.

We can only kind've guess at this because there is no documentation to support it but when flipping the plan the model is re-built and since many electrical symbols options classifications are designated as "mounts to wall" the symbol has to find a wall and there is some sort of internal tolerance being applied that can sometimes be a miss.
If you plan on flipping a plan, you could group select like symbols and designate them as mounts to floor instead of wall before you flip and then they will not be searching for walls but rather they will keep their xy coordinates relative to a model space flip

Try deleting the user library data file with chief closed and then re-open chief and it will rebuild the file

you can trace it with cad lines or you can try converting it to a dxf with an online jpg to dxf converter

Change the text style for Cad,Default
also, I mentioned this to you in email, would highly recommend doing your lot with a polyline and leaving your terrain as a rectangle.
This is a big liability:


 

Custom_Fields is a hash so you would call it similar to other keys in Chief. It is in the Manual:

here is a super quick video, hopefully helps:

snap a cad line just past your high wall and break on that line and drop the remaining sliver down to the lo wall

really Really REALLY REALLY not worth your time or anyone's for that matter. You need an accurate model to get an accurate takeoff. You do NOT need an accurate model to make construction documents. The delta for me is 30% time. That's significantly more expensive than having a lead framer do a takeoff for a few hours. You also need a good handful of custom macros for such things as screws and nails. This is a fruitless endeavor. Just giving you info from a seasoned power user, takeoffs will never be supplanted from a journeyman who knows what they are doing.

as it should be, you are performing 3 path trace bounces as opposed to 1. But you can set AMDFidelity to a higher value to improve performance or decrease your bounce rate

I responded on my YouTube but you can simply cut the object (ctrl+x) and paste hold it on another floor. thats 3 hotkeys that can be performed in under 2 seconds...modal windows take longer than that to open so its the fastest way

your sample rate is set to 1000 in rendering technique options on your walkthrough
at 2.5K resolution
30 seconds of video *30 frames/second=900 *1000 samples=900,000 1000 samples/36 samples-per-second on a 4090 = 25,000 seconds=~ 7 hours to render
so probably around 10 hours for you

Also you should put a roof on her to mitigate the light bleed at the ceiling
BTW you are sharing PCI lanes with your graphics cards with those two extra M.2 drives

oh you want it fo each window as opposed to a total. then there is a built in macro:

but you would have to put it in the window label which would not be all that desirable if you were trying to show it in elevation.
Better to just put it in the window schedule

No...a 3d view is going to apply a  material to your framing member, so you would need a material with the color you want, but there is no way to assign a material based on the layer of the object it is being applied to.

without opening your plan I am guessing that you are using a wall elevation camera, which is clipped to a room. you need to edit your active view and uncheck clip to room and then likely adjust a back clip and side clip parameters

just place a symbol that is a 3way from your library,otherwise you need to edit the CAD block and add your annotation for the symbol you are trying to modify.
Use CAD Lines set to the electrical connections layer to depict a connection between floors

Narrow Ramp with a Solid Railing
 

You could set a macro with a conditional statement that looks for a specific room name and then assigns a global variable to the ceiling height of the open below room that will report in that specific room names ceiling height

the condition you show doesnt allow for that unless you change overhangs or plate heights

your patio pour number should not superceded that of the higher elevation slab, its a priority, not an order of operations.
also..mark me as solved, haha
