    Jenny - NO you are in the wrong place. Click on the symbol. The bar will appear that allows you to open the "object" but one in from that to the right is the open symbol icon. Open the symbol and go down to the rotate option and enter the degrees there. YOu will see it adjust. YOU just have to figure out the exact degrees to match the rafter/ceiling slope.

    Jenny - select the track light. Open the SYMBOL, rotate on y axis 30 degrees or what ever works.

    The big advantage to using Chief Premier is the ability to do layouts. Sending elevations and screen shots to a layout sheet. Good for general construction as well as kitchens etc. I don't think layouts are available in the other versions but please verify as I have not checked in a long time. I do all remodeling work and I think Chief is an excellent product for that application.

    AAYCCC, I am confused. The text says cabinet door but the picture attached seems to be a entry door. That is why I responded as I did. Me thinks you really meant cabinet as they are not customizable via a dbx like regular doors. ( Why I don't know. I have requested that) I pull no weight with CA however. I think OT will have the answer.
  9. Dennis_Gavin
    change door type to glass, adjust the number of lites and the bottom tail in the dbx It won't give you the raised panel but you could use a cabinet door sized to your liking and drag it into place adjusting as needed. Here it is without the panel.

    Use a negative setting. Don't forget to include the counter top thickness so it sits below the tor an undermount sink. ANd if you don't get it quite right on the first attempt, try, try again. In baseball 1 for 3 is pretty good!

    Have you adjusted the z origin on import? Do this along with inserts into counter top.

    Kilgore - Now that is cool! Is that documented? When/what version did that become available in?

    After her move to Ohio I think she left the business/retired, something like that.

    Jintu - I don't remember having to use the launch assistant in X5. I would just name the new set up and it would stick, no? I will check out launch assistant. Haven't even looked at that yet. OK on the tab window. Why not just the usual maximize icon? A little quicker.......Oh well. THanks!

    In X6 whenever I save and close on ray trace settings it replaces the previous settings instead of creating a new set of settings. In X5 I could have several different named settings. What happened? or is this only me? Also- when I tile windows there is no option to maximize one of the tiled windows which I sometimes want to do. IS this Windows or CA controlling this? ALso, can we have word wrap for this forum?

    Tom - For interiors pay attention to what BArton suggested regarding the ambient light setting. I find that in some situations I need to crank up the ambient light. It looks too bright in standard render but when ray traces the results are much better. There can also be a big sifference when using photons versus not using photons. Play around with trying it with small screen sizes (another setting) to get a quicker peek.

    Thanks Joe. Now just need to figure out what category to store it under????
  18. Dennis_Gavin
    BINGO! Thanks Kilgore. How did that get checked?? Default with update? I have never used that setting in the past so was not looking for it. I was looking for something UNCHECKED! Just shows to go ya........ Note: Not all problems require the plan.
  19. Dennis_Gavin
    OK, new problem. I am not getting my lines for drywall in plan view. All wall items are set to display. Any thoughts?
  20. Dennis_Gavin
    OK, got it working. WHen talking to TS for some reason I clicked the maximize button and the screen increased slightly and the status text displayed. Closed the view and redid and all was OK. So, why was the camera view not maximized on a freshly opened plan and camera view? TS said it is the default. Oh well. At least I got it fixed.
  21. Dennis_Gavin
    Glenn - Yes it is checked to display.
  22. Dennis_Gavin
    Rebooted this morning and still no ray trace progress showing. Looks like I am alone in this. Hmmmmmmmmmm........Time to call TS.
  23. Dennis_Gavin
    I no longer have the progress on a ray trace showing. ( don't know what pass it is on or how far along it is on the pass. Not Good.

    Spelling got me again. I did finally find one on another site but it is HUGE, 23 MB. I tired to reduce polygons in AccuTrans but the program just hung on me. ;o(

    Anyone have a symbol for a crystal chandelier? Can't find it on 3D wharehouse and can't seem to search the old CT forum. I think I saw one posted about a year ago or so but.....Owner wants to keep one she has in the bathroom so I am trying to somewhat match it.
