  1. Chief has tested well with windows 10 for long time now, but sometimes the little buggers have a problem, try to send it in to support.

    Duplex

    You just need to divide the 2 rooms with an invisible wall or room divider wall and change the ceiling heights.
  3. DRAWZILLA

    Duplex

    Just change the height for that room or rooms. Chief works with rooms as the main thing
  4. it looks like the casings are different sizes door to window. I would make the sidelights out of doors.
  5. Yes, just make sure you get one that works with Room Planner. Chief has a list.
  6. Also there are some old mirror textures floating around from previous versions. Try another one from the lib.
  7. Happened to me and I use "Ariel" for everything but only in a text block.
  8. YEP I ALSO GET THIS, WISH THEY WOULDN'T DO THIS EVERY TIME I now have been going thru all the templates and unblock and click on height and width and rename and re-block.
  9. Thanks Greg, I think it will be great for my client videos I do. Unfortunately my wife will put the kabash on it until my birthday so I will have to find another way. She always says I have everything, so she want to surprise me --some surprise.
  10. Looks to me like the batts are white or light gray. Change them to black in the edit texture DBX. I have an anno-set just for sending elevations to the layout,(Scott does this also) to get the lineweight I want, like windows ,doors, and roofs for the pop effect.
  11. I don't think Chief is really made for commercial work (Con doc's) so you would have to do some workarounds.
  12. Adjust the "panel frame options" in the door DBX.
  13. You can select any text , then hold down the "x" key and drag a corner, to change the size to fit somewhere.
  14. Did you change your serial number?
  15. change the reference set to what you want to show, or create a new reference set. You just copy a set that is close to what you need and rename it using ______ ref set. I have several ref sets
  16. The problem is that it dosent stick with the updates, you get the old one and have to change it again.
  17. Is has roof checked in the room DBX?
  18. I also see the text wrap problem, but if you open the text and check auto width and height, it will show correct. I have seen this in just about every upgrade for a few years now. Not seeing any missing text or section number problem.
  19. I start drawing the proposed plan by laying out the existing using existing defaults, when done with that, I simply save as -existing including the cad mask background, then change all my defaults to new, windows ,doors ,walls, labels, and continue drawing the new. That way there in no re-linking any of the plans. You would just send the existing plan to the layout like it was a new plan. My templates are actually saved with existing defaults. This works great with existing vs new windows and doors, walls and labels, schedules.
  20. Not coming from and AutoCAD, Revit background, I used other cad, and Chief was very easy for me to learn, couple of classes and done. I do have to thank Scott Hall for all his help early on.
  21. To me it looks like your crosshairs, But that other line probably is not a bug
