You can follow along ok without a mic, you just won't be able to be heard by others (of course you need a speaker to hear others). As I recall you can type in responses but don't hold me to that. Just get yourself a cheapo headset and you'll be good to go.

I think a more appropriate title for this topic would be: How do you like them apples?

Here is a simple walkthrough path that accomplishes what you are attempting to do. test walkthru-22.avi

While I have never actually tried this approach, you could try disabling the onboard card using the Window's "Device Manager". This back-up computer only has one video card so only one adapter shows in the attached image, but your Device Manager should show both of your Display Adapters. Select the one you don't want and hit the Disable button. Looks good on paper.

Why aren't you using X12 Dermot? Did you let your SSA lapse?

While I can't personally vouch for any of these sources, if you scroll down the Offering Services forum there are posts offering 3D design services. Also @PH_Decor_Design has offered CA compatible 3D models in the Symbols and Content forum.

Self closing?

Only 10 terabytes? Geez Charles, what are you backing up? The library of Congress.

Don't know if I would trust an antique HDD (with all those moving parts that can fail) as a back-up drive, but I do use my older SATA SSD drives as super flash drives. All you need is a SATA to USB adapter cable and you can use your old internal SSD drive as an external storage device. Very handy.

Turns out that if you have Windows 10 you have a screen recording tool included in the software. When was the last time you scrolled all the way to the bottom of the Start Menu? That's where it's located disguised as the "XBox Game Bar". You can also access it by holding down the "Windows" key and then hitting the "G" key. Don't know if it's robust enough to record Chief sessions though. I did a quick test of a modeling session in Chief and it worked fine for the action in the window that was being recorded, but the opening any new drop down menus or browsers in the window did not show up on the recording. But what the hey, it's there and it's free. Give it a shot. Maybe it can be of use to you.

Then you need to check out @dshall's YouTube channel. You've pretty well summed up his modus operandi. Sorry Scott

Renderrabbitt....? I like it. I think Newell may be on to something here.

This is a slippery slope for sure. Without getting political I can only say that increasing the population density of neighborhoods that don't have the infrastructure to support the increase is a recipe for trouble. IMHO

Corel VideoStudio X10 has a nice live screen capture feature.

If you don't mind, how loud is the computer. I have read some reviews that the fans are noisy.

Many moons ago I did something sort of like that. Use your bird's eye picture as the background and tweak your camera position so that your Chief model is in the proper orientation for the picture.

God love you guys, but when you start hashing out these macros I might as well be reading this stuff. More than ever I am convinced that macros should have a forum of their own.

Don't want to range too far afield here but @CharlesVolz you have a typo (an extra "lot") in the 4th paragraph. Just a FYI.

Don't know how many of you have taken the Customer Survey in the Announcements Forum? Also don't know exactly who is compiling the results, but it does afford one the opportunity to input suggestions to improve the program. I suppose It can't hurt to fill it out and ask for the main improvements you would like to see. I sent one in.

Even a blind pig finds an occasional acorn. Berkeley was also the first town to ban the Fire Dept. from having U.S. flags on their fire engines. Don't believe that ban has been universally adopted.

Nice work Graham. BTW, how much does a bottle of that 400 year old Rembrandt signature wine go for?

I think they are over-reacting. Just because the giant bankrupt energy provider nearly blew San Bruno to kingdom come and almost burned down the entire state last summer is no reason to fly off the handle and ban natural gas.

Don't know if it's an argument, but it looks like a one sided conversation to me. The guy is trying hard to make an impression but the young lady seems disinterested. Now that I think about it I've found myself in his shoes before.

Is to.
