  1. I would think that the best driver is the latest one. When I installed 335.23 , it was a beta then
  2. There's something else I'd like to nail--but forgot how.
  3. I'm using the 335.23 and not having any problems. It is a beta driver but I always use the beta ones just to keep up. Nvidia drivers are good for all the different cards they sell. Try this latest one it may work for you.
  4. Yes , I just turn off the electrical labels b/c those labels are mostly already with the cad block. I also use an electrical legend so I don't need those labels.
  5. For showing the existing walls on the remodeled floor use a background cad mask, don't use walls, it confuses Chief, Take the existing floor plan, turn off everything you don't want to see, then make a view to cad, block it and copy it to the remodeled plan. Make sure your lineweight for whatever layer you put it on is maybe a 10 or 12 in dark gray. Now whenever you remove a wall the existing will show up on the plan. This method just makes for a cleaner model.
  6. Agree, it should have been fixed, there has been a lot of threads on this and it's been sent to TS
  7. Jintu is very good by the way, I told you, you would find someone here.
  8. Post the plan, someone here will fix it zippity du da., lickity split. Sounds like a room problem to me.
  9. I can't turn off "undo", I really need it, sometimes I just go to fast and delete the wrong thing.
  10. Yes it does refresh the materials list, say you change a wall, that changes the materials list, come on, really. F12 reframes walls floor and ceilings and that changes the materials list. By the way---not crazy, my analyst told me so.
  11. My Adobe X work great, try the Repair option in the Help tab
  12. Too bad I like the shed man. Well if he has gone on to Revit, he will be back.
  13. Try hitting F12 after you do things, that seems to refresh things for me, not sure about the materials list though as I never use it.
  14. Joe, I have been wondering the same thing, hope she's ok.
  15. Scott, you are a wonderful person aren't you
  16. It can be done, there are video's on this that Scott did. chieftutor.com
  17. I know everyone won't like this but, If you are running slow it could be a setting within the program, or your computer equip. Some other thing that could slow you down is round detailed railings, symbols that have a high face count and very large terrains. There probably are some bugs, but at this point they are not slowing me down that I know of. Check your settings, go back to the default and start over.
  18. The slowness with 32 bit will come into play with large plans--32 is just not enough (3GB) available memory sometimes. 64 bit lets you use a lot more memory.
  19. The rake board has always been the gable end for me also.
  20. That usually happens when your walls aren't connected properly. Try to break the lower walls at the two points where the dormer wall meets the lower wall.
  21. I think I am going to install an SSD drive, that will really speed things up for me.
  22. looks to me like your garage floor height could be at "0" when it should be "-?" a minus number. If it is, try hitting F12. Check your floor heights in each room or you can post the plan to find out exactly what's wrong. I always draw my walls 1st and second then adjust floor heights, working from the top down, using floor defaults DBX or set these up before drawing them.
  23. See if you have an updated Print driver for that plotter
