  1. oh-oh, the master has arrived. I'm just the grasshopper. Where's your crown old master. Are you guys meeting w/ Doug today??
  2. You need to angle your picture and add sunglasses so you can join mine and Bill's club. Then you will gain status. jk
  3. Yes, Joe, thanks That's what I do, I always seen to forget 1 step.
  4. your floor defaults are probably not set for what you want so every time you rebuild it will revert back to the default. always try to set up defaults before drawing the plan.
  5. Add "WP" to the cad block. Find the cad block and insert it on the plan , unblock it and change it, then block it again. Change the name to something you will recognize. with the outlet selected, open the 3d symbol DBX and change the cad block to the new one.
  6. I use a room with a label "SHR" so I can do the floor and ceiling materials, then use glass railing walls for the walls (room def.) I then use Wall Material Regions for the tile walls so I can extend the tile beyond the glass walls. Seats and curb are p-solids
  7. Your right ,Joe. I have used them in a double wall condition in the past but not a single wall.
  8. Not sure if this will help or not but I always turn off all lite fixtures and use light sources, you can put them anywhere you want, and they don't show in the electrical, or any other plan, if you turn them off. You can put 8 in every room, if you want. You can adjust them just like fixtures.
  9. There are some wall niche's in the lib.
  10. use the "Snip it" tool or just save it as a "PDF" and send
  11. I use Chief's room labels and add macro's to them. I need to do it that way to be able to use the "Room Finish Schedule" and show a lot more info than you can in a label.
  12. Sorry I missed the meeting but I always use rich text except for room labels and macro's, not sure why I would want to switch. I can also put rich text on any layer I want, what am I missing about layer control
  13. Jim, you may have to remove it from the registry and the services area's to get rid of it totally.
  14. I also agree, there is no reason to fake dimensions in Chief. It's just to easy to move it exactly where you want it.
  15. Go into the material and change the angle, you might want to copy the material first and add 90,180 etc. after the name.
  16. Scott, all the "layer painter" does is quickly change an object from one layer to another. You still have layer control of the objects, less clicks. What everyone wants is match property's tool that will change every property of a line. Isn't that really what the layer painter does anyway.
  17. Nice Tommy, maybe they fixed it. I haven't done one of those in a few years.
  18. somehow I remember that the framing has some problems doing those windows, unless framing is not part of your plan.
  19. We do have a tool called "layer painter" that works pretty good for that. try it.
  20. You can make one up and save it to the lib. or just pick one in the lib and modify.
