  1. The only problem with that is that I can put up X6 and X7 on the same computer and the same screen and you can see the lag difference, so I think the lag is built into X7 or X7 doesn't agree with something or another program on my system. Dermot, I'm not the only one seeing this.
  2. Labels won't show "ever" if you turn them off at the layer level, instead of just turning off at the individual box view level.
  3. Graham, please keep up with the Humor, I have to laugh ,or I go nuts, and we like it. All ideas are what we want here, they all work differently and that's ok.
  4. Chief just needs to have this feature built in , then it will be their fault if something goes wrong.
  5. never noticed it before, b/c I really don't show any 3d framing in my plans
  6. I keep my site plans live, I love the fact that if I change it anywhere, it updates the site. Anno-sets get me there fast.
  7. I hear you Joe, That tool gives me more camera's then I need most of the time. Of course they are easy to erase. For me it would be easier to copy camera's b/c of all the setup needed and there is no default for wall camera's.
  8. That's exactly why we need to add extra stringers, when we need to. Looks like you would need 4 x treads in that condition. sometimes we need 4 or 5 stringers.
  9. Use the "Edit wall intersection "tool to move the brick back where it should be.
  10. Sorry about that Larry, I really don't know how that happened. I just have to slow down and think.
  11. Joe, I use wall camera's in my template plan, off to the side, and just bring them in when needed. I hated having to create each one every time. Why can't we copy them?
  12. Wow, haven't seen that one before. Do they go to a landing below? I would try to erase and re-do them. Other than that, Post it.
  13. Sorry wrong thread, Larry did see it though. Stupid is as stupid does , I guess
  14. I create special walls on just about every job I do, so its normal to me. I really think there is no correct answer until Chief adds this feature, the answer is whatever works for your situation is best for now.
  15. I know it doesn't copy any recoverable info from your old disk but you have to get that from Microsoft.
  16. Do you mean the stringers or the walls underneath, can you post a pic?
  17. Also check your video card drivers to see they are current.
  18. This is one reason to keep your sections and elevations live, if it's a view to cad , changes don't register, and becomes a conflict to the plan. Everything live for me. Of course we don't have any control over others.
  19. Look in the General tab if X5 had tabs--not sure. I deleted X5 a while ago. Sorry.
  20. I do it very similar to Scott. I try to have a complete As-built plan complete, before I even start the new addition plan. That way if the client changes their mind about which side of the house the addition is built or if they decide on a 2nd floor, then I can start over with the existing plan. The accuracy of the model is very important to me, to get it right, saves time later on.
  21. Check to see that bumping / pushing is on.
  22. That's what I did in an earlier post, used the casings.
  23. No, you must resize the wall it on also but very simple to do.
