  1. The profile plan( layout or plan files) in the templates file is the only plan that is OOB. No other plan is. That's what Chief gives you to start with. If you are having some problems, you can always go back and start over with the profile plan. It comes with every new version.
  2. I don't think that card is $150, the 780 ti is pretty new
  3. I always use auto roofs to start with and of course it never does everything the way you want it. Then, at some point along the way, I have to turn it off and fix manually. Been doing it that way for a log time now..
  4. Thanks Glen, nice to know if I ever use it.
  5. You have to select those 2 roof planes and change them also
  6. Did you use a gable line at the window in plan view?
  7. I don't know about the materials list but F12 rebuilds walls floors and ceilings and you would think it also changes the materials list. If you have changed any of that stuff its a good idea to hit f12 to rebuild those things.
  8. I have a 1st generation Ipad and can't even install room planner 2.0 on it. I guess it's too old.
  9. I already had Chief prior to the classes, I think June. And b/c I stayed at the hotel, Mont and I had dinner. We talked about you
  10. I still learn something all the time, even after using 9 years
  11. I connect them first ,then rotate it as a whole.
  12. I block it strictly so I can't move any lines, but I guess you could lock the layer also.
  13. Scott , it's where your body is instantly transported via Quantum Mechanics to any place in the universe. Right now it's possible only with atoms at the moment.
  14. I Hear you there, at least you are going to vacation, and forget about all this. I envy you for taking these huge far away vacations. I did it when I was younger but not as good as you are now. Now, I hate getting to my far away destinations by plane, just too much sitting around waiting. I'm waiting for teleportation.
  15. I don't understand--no brainer, b/c Penny says I don't have one.
  16. Sounds like your Internet is fast and slow, sometimes its the internet connection and sometimes its the website. When I get a unusually slow site, I always stop it and try it again and it will be better.
  17. Designcad is also a cad program that will import Dwg,Dxf. I use it prior to Chief
  18. I'll send them to you,Joe, but they really aren't anything special, as I just add the layers I need as I go along, so most of my jobs are a little different. I try not to have mega- layers like Scott. Its just too much for me to think about. Of course, I have all the usual layers that I always use but the anno-set is the key to fast switching as you know.
  19. Ron (my new bestest friend) is " The Curmudgeon " , He is allowed to Complain b/c If I did it , they would throw me out of here.
  20. ok, thanks, I was talking about the text content itself.
  21. Glen, I can't select multiple text boxes when they are not the same text inside the box.
  22. One more important thing is ,go to preferences and check "Color off" to be grayscale. Then turn color off (button in toolbar) and everything prints to grayscale. You don't have to set all your lines to black. Don't use light colors that you want to show up good or they will be too light, those items should be on the darker side. You really have to play with it for yourself but once set its done forever.. This gives the plan a very nice contrast tone, walls are graytone also.
  23. If it's a detail you want, take the closest wall detail, to what you want, from the cad detail lib. and modify it.
