They should be placed in the plan then you wouldn't be having any problems.

I got my invite a couple of days ago. Can I upgrade from Win 7 Home Premiun direct to 10 or would it be better to do a clean install. I hate the thought of putting everything back on. Then again it may get a lot of the crap off.

When I place fence on the terrain it sometimes follows terrain correctly, but often it "sinks" under. Have you checked 'follow terrain' in the Stairs dbx?

Nice Rich.

Perry that would be at Cheers where everybody knows your name

You need to upload the plan file, not the layout file.

Further to my post above, This is from CA Customer Support. Lew called and simply renewed his SSA, which did indeed give him access to X7.

I just checked and X7 is not in my digital locker and I have current SSA. Should I just wait or contact Chief ? As my SSA expires on the 12 Feb as I have mentioned in another post, I felt it very unfair of not having access to X7 because my SSA does not go till the 5th March. Lew suggested calling but as I'm on the other side of the world, I emailed CA. I mentioned that I had been using Chief for 20 years, since V4 but obviously they couldn't care less. So much for customer loyalty. Looks like I'll stay with X6. This is their response: Len, X7 has not been officially released, and will likely not be fully released until March. As such, you will not see the upgrade option in your account unless your SSA expires after March 5, 2015. Since yours expires February 12, that is likely before we will release X7 and you will not have access to the free upgrade without renewing. As soon as you renew your SSA, you will see the upgrade option in your Digital Locker. Please, let me know if you need clarification on any of this, or if you have additional questions.

V4 was the first metric version I am told? That's right from memory. It was also the 1st version with auto roofs. It has come a long way since then. I can't believe I've being using it for 20 years.

If you are not sure, then download the trial and then make up your mind. Arthur I would if the bloody thing was in my locker but it's not. Now Lew has his in his locker and his SSA expires on the 1st Feb. Mine expires on the 12th Feb. but it's still not there.

Richard It's a b it hard to upgrade when X7 isn't even in my locker.

I first purchased Chief in 1994 (V4) and have upgraded every release since. My SSA expires on the 12 Feb and there is nothing in my locker re X7.If I can't d/load X7 beta even tho my SSA is still current, I wont be paying my SSA renewal. I'm with Lew on this one. After 20 years of loyal service it means nothing. Customer loyalty has left the building.

Nice grass Alan.

That's going to take fooreeevvveeer. Sorry but that's just not true. It should only take you a few minutes to do what Matty said.

Well said Rich.
