  1. You can just add an "E" in the label for existing windows like Tommy and Scott said, I also do it this way.
  2. Make any changes in the camera view, then you won't have to re-do it when you have to open the view again. the only thing I usually have to change is the foundations, sometimes you get errant lines so you might have to mask it with some earth fill.
  3. Here is how I did it. http://screencast.com/t/DzZTrrnXRDev
  4. I'd take a hammer to that old CRT anyway, it doesn't deserve to live.
  5. THE PROJECT BROWSER I have it up all the time
  6. I'm old and he picks on me too. Maybe your on to something. I also pick back to defend my wife's honor ( have to use some excuse).
  7. I would re-download it just incase its corrupt You may have had network problems..
  8. That doesn't happen, the attic is the top floor with nothing on it.
  9. I not only use a template plan for ceiling heights on several floors but also many other things within Chief like line weights on many different layersets and reference sets. It saves me at least 1 hour per plan I do.
  10. What you asked is what I told you will work. Are you saying you want some automatic thing??
  11. Yes, use a template plan already set up for that.
  12. You can adjust the accuracy in the disto menu
  13. I put those on their own layer so you can turn those off when you want
  14. Chief says they are working on it.
  15. Thanks, buddy I'm learning from the master himself.
  16. No , my wife won't even say those words and I never try to be awesome b/c she will expect it all the time, too much work, but thank you anyway.
  17. Some times the schedules won't fit horiz. on the page, so I just rotate it, works for me. I know I could put them on another page but I would hate to flip pages just to fine out what size window I have. I could also just not have callouts and just use the size but I add a lot of info to the label and until Chief has multi line labels, that's the way it has to be for now. haven't had any complaints yet.
  18. Here is a short video http://screencast.com/t/LAYWOVaeTx
  19. I have the Disto with the built in camera so no matter how much sun , you can zoom in to get an exact measurement. I can also use the camera for outside corners, just stand away from the corner take that measurement to the closest corner, zoom in to the other corner and take a measurement, it will do the calculation to get an exact measurement. At least close enough for me.
  20. You know, I think the cable and phone co's try to keep everyone at a low rate unless you know better and complain. Look what happened to Netflix, they lowered their streaming rate and everyone went nuts, so now Netflix has to pay a higher amount for better streaming or downloading. Too many people at high mbps rates will clog the system so if your a tech wennie , you will be put at the lowest speed unless you pay for faster.
  21. I use the paid version (25 dollars) of Snaggit, they also have a free version. I also send the video's to Screencast for viewing. Very easy to use. http://www.techsmith.com/snagit.html?gclid=CIzsto7HhMECFRRhfgodYqYA9w
  22. Because I don't have the joke talent that Scott does.
  23. Something wrong with yours also. Your in the San Diego area also?? What's going on down there. Rebel against the man. It's a takeover I tell ya.
