David, if the plan sent back doesn't use custom layers, what happens on their end, it doesn't show up?, or locked?, no editing?

sorry Joe, I just checked and I now get the rotate arrow. I guess I never noticed it before. for years I had to do it the hard way, Well that will save me some time. Thanks for enlightening me to a new function that I missed.

I usually use it for small closet when you can't fit a full macro label in which includes flr, clg, heights and I will put my own name in using the alternate name box. without all the info, just name only

Not for me, no rotate handle when you use the show label in X19, try it all the time

Yes as Mick says, I always try to find a "Chief " symbol before looking elsewhere, and I usually don't have to so no slowdown for me.

Chief doesn't let you rotate the labels Chief gives you unless you open the label and rotate using the angle box. It's much easier to create your own labels from a text box using macro's, then you can do anything you want. Just copy room to room from there.

I have always used a p-line with a fill and put it in the back,, for remodeling the new footings always have a fill to tell the difference from new and existing.

You have to change the cad block for that.

Thanks Mark, for anyone interested, this is a great thing Mark has going on and a very learning experience for people in those fields. We have already done that in one of Scotts webinar's so I will leave a space for someone that hasn't experienced this system. I'm sure this will be great for those who order cab's. if you have room I'll come again.

if you did a clean install then maybe you need to download core lib. again.

I do it using cad lines and callouts

all colors are different depending on if your seeing shadows or sun or interior and lighting is critical and can change every color you might see in a plan or elevation. Printing is also something different depending on the type of paper you might be using. I really don't think its possible to get an accurate exact match. Monitors are also something that can be changed and can vary for each different model and setup.

If you can still find them, copy them to your X10 data folder (in the textures file) so you know where they are. You might also check in the X9 data folder for them. Where did you previously keep them? Only you know where.

Thanks Gerry, I still use the old plant schedule method.

nice Gerry, This would be great if Chief would do it for us. Notes like this vary greatly depending on where you are also.

sorry Buddy, I just don't have that issue in windows, so I'm not sure What you are asking..

Hey Chief, just do it.

very nice stuff Joe, very useful.

you can also just place a cad block from the cad block lib.

Thanks Joe , I had no idea Dropbox had that option., i'll check it out.

send it as a "PDF"

You can also just bring it into the layout, change it to the size you want and re-save to the lib.

For me , I have replaced some of my older materials with the new materials of the same kind b/c I know Chief has been adding new materials in X10. If you haven't re-vamped your template plans lately, might be a good idea. Not sure if this will help you , but it can't hurt.

Yes, good idea
