Well, when sending to the layout ,you could send a copy of the layerset with the view ,but I personal would never use it. It just creates a lot of extra layersets and get confusing.

Use post to beam, and adjust the spacing to get what you want.

There is nothing to compare, it just a short video showing the basic's of a model. I really don't need a critic of weather you think it good or not, it works for me. Anyway I have already posted some videos.. The way I see it you are just spamming this site to get business for your video service. I would never spend $199 for such an easy thing to do yourself

I also like it if you don't need the framing.

Yes Tommy, I get it also.

Curt, I think you can put them wherever you want, just don't move them or the link will be lost.

I would also like to have an option to keep the breaks.

I put them in Chief x? data folder file. That way I just copy that folder to each new new version.

My videos are different than yours, mine are just to show the homeowner a quick view of everything new. I also pay for bandwidth so a lot of views

means more money. I try to keep it down to my yearly fee and not go above that. When you do instructional videos the sky is the limit. They are the best though.

I just downloaded chief 6 and am drawing a home with circular rooms, some of the walls don't connect and I an getting this grey circle over the point a the "connect walls" hot key next to my crosshair.  How do I get rid of this?

Fix it!!!

I have had no problems with X6

Do you work on a mac?

You also need to check" trim to soffits" and "soffits". If I want the rafters to show I use a opening no material for the soffit material.

look at the ridge height in the roof plane DBX and match it.

It just to easy to create your own video, takes me 3-5 minutes. There are also free programs out there to do it with.

Yes, its always been that way for me also, just send to the layout and its fixed.

The sub-fascia controls the exterior rafter size.

Thanks, Rod

Looks like something I could use.

The scale shows what the "current" scale is. This is so that when you print it is correct. If you print to a smaller sheet etc. the scale will be correct for how things were printed. Box scale has a bug in it where this isn't done so will always show the scale that it was sent to layout at rather than the actual scale.

Bug? That's exactly what I want it to do. Been using it that way for many years now.

New construction will give you a better number but I still think it cuts the garage wall in halve, but its close enough for me.

Sometimes I have had to actually make a pony wall instead of using the roof breaks wall check.

Use the "Box scale" command if you don't want the zoom problem. The box scale command is in the label for the layout view. go to the layout and highlight a view open it (not using the open view) and add the macro to the label and it will be attached to the view, then you can move it wherever you want.

Look at the Nvidia control panel. You spec's are good if you are using the Nvidia

Wow, I could never use that version.

Sorry, Rod

I really have never played with that, I just select something in the plan and filter it that way.

What kind of video card / memory do you have? X6 uses more resources than X5
