Whatever Happened To The Full Masonry Fireplace And Chimney?
DRAWZILLA replied to Electromen's topic in General Q & A
It's different with a slab. Not to good -
I think Doug is probably correct in this case the 540 is pretty old. I would try to turn off shadows and turn them on only when you need them to send to the layout

How Easy Is It To Create 2D Details In Chief?
DRAWZILLA replied to 4hotshoez's topic in General Q & A
Prior to starting with Chief, I had hundreds of already drawn details that transferred into chief very well, a few lineweight adjustments and done. -
Whatever Happened To The Full Masonry Fireplace And Chimney?
DRAWZILLA replied to Electromen's topic in General Q & A
All these years and that fireplace has always been wrong the brick should extend below the terrain surface. I now have to make 2 of them one on top of the other or just use s p-solid instead of a foundation. I guess it will go the way of the pocket door and never get fixed. -
Understanding Annosets, Defaults & Layersets
DRAWZILLA replied to Joe_Carrick's topic in General Q & A
Chief gives us most of the anno-sets I use but, of course I have many more layersets for different things like reference sets, I have 8 extra reference sets -
Sometimes I use the Country field for lot and tract info. or any other note I need.
-
Do you have the latest version. ? Also a corrupt symbol could do it. Is your video card drivers up to date? Anything running in the background will use resources. ??? Lot of round railing could also do it.

Understanding Annosets, Defaults & Layersets
DRAWZILLA replied to Joe_Carrick's topic in General Q & A
As far as the # of anno-sets, I have added about 4 to what was already given us and that's all I use. Speaking of drawing in color, that's what I also do but you have to beware of the color you use b/c in grayscale some colors will print too light so you need to darken every color you use to get it correctly in the plan. Then it will pop for you. -
Right click on any toolbar and check it again
-
To me it looks like the front corners don't meet in the corners, adjust the center soffit so that it meets with the right soffit right in the front corner and they will join correctly.
-
Yes, that's b/c slabs need the walls to create a room on the foundation level, strange but true, you can also add room labels to foundation rooms.
-
Yep it was in the room settings some were not marked monoslabs and your welcome, I actually enjoy doing these videos but rarely have the time b/c work is piling up very fast, I'm just looking for ways to do it faster always.
-
You must have at least a 4" stem wall with slabs.
-
Here is a video explaining what I did. http://screencast.com/t/2OTI9ACk
-
ok I'll do a short video fixing it. the room DBX should match the foundation DBX. Not sure what's happing on your end.
-
If you still have some problems I can do a video if needed.
-
Set "floor to swt" should be "0" which will reset all the other numbers correctly swt should auto change to -28 to match the floor height
-
Did you select each footing wall and adjust them also.? Even a slab footing has a stem wall that needs to be adjusted.
-
You got to be kidding me, T.S. needs T.S. Slabs really should be easier than this, to much to think about.

Fundamental Misunderstanding Of The Room Structure Tab
DRAWZILLA replied to HumbleChief's topic in General Q & A
Yes, done it lots. its all in the room and footing settings. -
Here is your fixed plan Check out the settings. You needed to adjust the stem wall size to 12" to match the footing and level it all up, easier to fix than explain b/c slabs are still a little difficult to understand. It's not the brick ledge, make sure align w outside edge is checked in the footing DBX. Larrys slab problem.zip

Whatever Happened To The Full Masonry Fireplace And Chimney?
DRAWZILLA replied to Electromen's topic in General Q & A
I use this a lot and I have never seen an auto chimney tool. I have to make them out of p-solid or walls Some people have made fireplaces ( and shared) that already have a chimney. You just drag it up where you want it. -
