DRAWZILLA

Sorry Tommy wrong thread.

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.

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.

I remember him.

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.

To me it looks like your crosshairs, But that other line probably is not a bug

yep post it. Does the band sit on the exterior surface and not intrude into the wall?

o.m.g. I very happy now. Bring on the macro's now. I have to change my plan defaults, but happy to do it.

thank you sir. wait for it, wait for it.

Joe did you download the fix notes, I didn't, and now can't go back and get them. If someone could post them here, I would jump up and down creating an earthquake in your neighborhood.

I also do it this way, thanks for the video Michael

Hope you have about ten grand for that.

That NVidia must have an hdmi port. Mine has several but it's a desktop, Joe does your laptop have more then 1 port. You could get a splitter I guess.

Did you set the NVidia card for multiple monitors? from the NVidia control panel

It's "uge"

I think Joe's answer is the correct answer

The s.a.m and template methods work the same, You will have to just open and close the elevations sometimes, if you do it Larry's way. To be sure I like to close the plan and layout and just re-open them. Larry have you ever used the update all button? It will update plot lines and live views at the same time.

Glen, Sorry, know I used to do it. You are correct as always, my layer-sets have been set for years now ,other than adding a few now and again, and haven't fool with them since. ABL= always be learning. I just talked without checking.

And it is possible to have layers on some layer-sets and not on others.

Thanks Joe, lets hope

I don't think they will fix it this time around.

Joe, But I am having a big slowdown ( with leader line text) and can't, at this time, want to add more macro's to my plans until Chief fixes this. It helped when I reduced the amount of macro's in my plans but I really want to add more macro's. Maybe it's just my problem.

Yes, I did open and close some views and that's all I did.

No, you use the box scale from the layout view, plan view has no label.

add a few "light sources" to the plan. They work just like lights but are invisible in the views and you can turn them off in the plan. for the brightness you can turn them down or up in watts or lumens.
