  1. Interesting little problem. Here is what I was able to come up with. The walls have to "flatten out" for there to be enough room to fit a door. I used a 48" wide double door and a 30" wide single door.
  2. Very nice indeed and far better than I am capable of at my present skill level. However I do have a slight criticism (for lack of a better term). It is something that I have experienced in my initial attempts at creating walkthrough videos in Chief. As the camera approaches the impressive front entry it would be so much more effective to have it pause in front of the entry doors and then have them swing open before entering the structure rather than just barging thru the closed doors. I don't know if it is even doable with the software. I always seem to end up opening the doors in 3D view before creating the walkthrough rather than moving thru the closed doors. Just one guy's humble opinion. BTW, the kitty licking it's paws is a very nice touch.
  3. So that makes you a gun totin tree hugger. No conflict there as long as you ain't shootin the trees.
  4. What Larry and Perry said and if you get some gaps between the roof planes use the "join roof planes" tool to clean them up.
  5. I feel like a dog chasing it's tail,
  6. Not sure how I feel about this. Is there accountability involved? Does the person being rated (either positively or negatively) see who is rating them?
  7. Well I guess one way to boost your post count is to reply to your own posts. Live and learn. You can now scroll thru multiple thumbnails by using the left and right arrow keys. Something that was not available in previous forums. However I still think the mouse navigation is ill conceived.
  8. I'm not usually one who is resistant to change, but I'm finding lots of little things that seem less productive than the previous forum's tools. My latest gripe concerns the attached thumbnails and how they are navigated. Specifically I hate the new "flyout" tabs that take you to the previous and next images. "Prev" flies out in the upper left portion of the screen and "Next" flies out clear on the other side of the screen. Add to this that the close tab remains in the lower right hand corner and you have to wheel all over the screen. I've got a 30" monitor. That takes 24" to cross the screen and another 12" to 30" to get down to the close tab depending upon which side of the screen you start from. Do I qualify for frequent flier miles for my mouse travel? As I mentioned before I also really miss the simple "previous thread/next thread" links. I must be the only one who cares but the only way I've found to get back to the previous thread is to hit the "Back to General Q & A" link and then scroll around to find it again. Just my .02 worth.
  9. You might get one of those New Guinea headhunters to do their shrunken head deal on you.
  10. Sheesh! I can't even find the right thread to respond to. Am I missing something. Where are the << Previous Thread | Next Thread >> links?
