  1. One thing is that Chief;s "print to pdf" has created super large files since it's inception. I use Acrobat dc pro for files that are much smaller.
  2. Use a reference layerset to show anything you want.
  3. By the looks of the holdown straps in the pic, it looks like there will be some kind of shear wall there, they just haven't got to it yet.
  4. Yes, been using a lot of Simpson steel shear walls the last few years,. and for the most part their details wok for me also.
  5. I haven't seen or had to deal with that, but all of my plans are stamped by a licensed structural engineer.
  6. My son went through the ICC approval process with his Glass railing system they sell. they have their own in house engineers and he said it still cost the company a $100,000 to do it. That's why you don't see everyone getting those approvals for railing. Their glass railing is the only ICC approval I have seen yet.
  7. Haven't seen that one around here yet.
  8. funny, I've been doing railings for a lot of years, and having them engineered, the only thing that may change is the bolt spacing for the posts, and post spacing, that's it.
  9. are the deck framing layers on? and did you frame it.
  10. Who would have thought this is possible , nice Glen. I guess I also need to play around with them.
  11. GAMING COMPUTER IS ABOUT WHAT cHIEF IS ALL ABOUT.
  12. I always update as soon as it comes out and no problems for me .
  13. Got a lot out of this meeting, good job everyone. we can all see that terrain railings need some work still.
  14. I don't need to get over it ,I like the way it works, your the one who dosen't
  15. I know what you mean about not showing everything but for me I need to cut the sections about 24" so I can show all the framing involved in each section so at 1/16, I might not get any framing.
  16. did you try this tool after selecting the break line tool. The "c" is for cut line.
  17. Go to http://crlaurence.com They have all the glass railing types and details but for 3d just get it as close as you can.
  18. EXCEPT FOR CLOUD LINES, THEY ARE ALWAYS ON THE DEFAULT LAYER, WISH WE HAD SOME WAY OF ADDING THEM TO THE ANNO-SETS.
  19. Joey, nice project, where you are at, did you need an Architect or engineer stamp to do that kind of building?
  20. I have no problem changing it using the text style in the layerset. i have 10 or 15 different text-styles depending on what I want to show all in rich text.
  21. Ray-tracing is all about lighting, are they on, are they (including the sun) adjusted to what you want. Maybe post the plan for exact help.
  22. You can only reference 1 floor at a time, a lot of people here want multiple floor references for referencing floors 1 and 2 from the 3rd floor.
