  1. I wanted to find out if anyone has a way to turn off the Wall Conflict Notification in X7? I tried locating a concrete block wall next to the exterior wall of a stucco-clad surface, and the block wall won't snap to the edge of the wall. What happens is the "gray circle" notification comes up and it's very annoying - you can't turn it off or make the block wall snap. Take a look at the attachment and see if you've encountered something similar? Thanks
  2. Thanks guys as always! Not sure where my other 550 posts went on this new site, but I can start over...
  3. I've got a question on X6 regarding dimensions and how to over-ride what's shown on the drawing? For example, a dimension says "36'-01/8" and you want it changed to read "36'-0"". My old way is to use a text box, fill it with white color and a white border. Set it over the top of the errant dimension and then use Text layer and call out 36'-0". This is not a great way of over-riding the dimension. In AutoCAD, you have a way of doing this very easily. With Chief X6, there must be a way to accomplish this without all the extra effort? I've been looking a the vids and cannot figure this one out? Is this even possible to over-ride?
  4. I downloaded X6 this morning and no problems or issues yet
  5. Not sure what happened with all of my previous 277 posts from the old forum, but it looks like we all have to start over again...?
  6. Got the background issue solved and am rendering right now. Here's my progress so far. Have to say, this latest upgrade is the best one yet!
  7. I went from X4 to X6 and it seems to run about the same for my setup. No problems yet.
  8. I've been using Chief since 1998 and recently upgraded to X6 (from X4) on a new Mac. I downloaded the Core Images files and cannot locate the background images for my renderings? Is there something that I need to download for these? I'm very, very impressed with the "look and feel" of Chief on OSX Mavericks as it looks just the the PC version. Any help would be appreciated as always
