  1. Looks to me like the garage isn't modeled correctly. Post the plan for an exact answer.
  2. I just draw a box around it in the live view, b/c I like a thicker line anyway, use it all the time.
  3. Set your dim. DBX to something like !/4" or larger or whatever metric system equivalent.
  4. Must e your mouse settings, check them. Never seen that before ever. I have heard some people saying their apple mouse wasn't working as it should.
  5. And the Charger's will be in 1st place Not only will we use the cloud for storage, but all the programs will be web based, nothing will be on your computer. If you miss your payment , they can shut you down in an instant. You will only rent the programs.
  6. Well, I'm not sure what you are saying, but for me it works or I'm out of business. Been doing shear walls since the 70's around here
  7. could be your video card, what are your spec's?
  8. Lew "LOCKS" I'm proud of you
  9. Another way is to add a wall layer (invisible) on the inside of the wall definition and adjust where the platform stops.
  10. I don't know what you are doing, but I can control the patterns in the vector view, or sometimes I have to create a pattern view when there is none. I do it in the edit material DBX. good luck with TS.
  11. I can change the gutters and roof trim in section elevation view. you have to change them in the section camera view DBX
  12. I know Joey uses different line weights to get his look. He use to do some cad lines over the top of his live views years ago, but now I think he uses special layer sets to send to the layout.
  13. With color off to gray, you have to be carful not to make the gray to light or it won't print. This goes for all colors using grayscale, keep them on the darker side of gray. Re-think all your colors if you want grayscale as any light color might not print b/c it's too light. Also check the line weight of your pattern lines, if you didn't , it might be 1 thus to thin.
  14. I get r-38 in vaulted ceilings all the time using larger rafters in that area. You could also add rigid foam on top if you need more.
  15. Layer sets and layers are the power of Chief, use them wisely , my son.
  16. I would say your video card is a little old, but because it is , try turning off the always update and see. You know you can always update everything in the layout by hitting one button on the layout, its the update all views button.
  17. Are your pattern lines black or gray, and did you adjust the correct color in the pattern section. I like them gray. try and see how it shows when actually printing to paper. It's a lot of hit and miss to get exactly what you want.. It does work believe me. You preferences could be different than what I like.
  18. Change the roof plane height, there is no setting for wall heights. moving the roof down will change the wall automatically
  19. You could also clean your computer and registry, just in case you have too much junk in the trunk. I do it every week. I use Ccleaner.
  20. two of the best , right there. Scott is the best terrain dic with person I know, thanks buddy, very helpful. Glen is the best at everything , for sure.
  21. I have been able to get around doing this using the computer method, by trading off energy requirements for different areas. A little more here , a little less there, I guess it depends on your climate zone.
