  1. Works here, try a restart of Chief ?
  2. You can use material painter to place artwork; photos, paintings, etc. on the TVs in the library. Works well ,leaving the bezel not painted, just paints the screen
  3. There is a 3 light at the top exterior door in the library.
  4. Robert, Good one thanks. I left the default label and added the last part of your formula %hinge_side%H only to keep the standard size call out with swing now added
  5. Change the side walls of the porch to High Shed/Gable Walls Set the ceiling height by opening the room dialogue box At least that the way in Chief not sure about HDPro
  6. Have you followed the procedure for making a symbol in a 3D view ? (Which is, delete every thing using delete surface tool, except what you want the symbol to be, then convert) I think you would have to make one for each desired pitch. Sometimes I make a simple example of my building with the object I want to make into a symbol to simplify reducing faces to just what I need.
  7. There is one in SketchUp's 3D Warehouse. Download the model to desktop, and drag into plan, You can add it to your User's Library Hose Bibb (Generic) | 3D Warehouse
  8. No way to so far as I can tell, other than choosing upper or lower case letters, which is not what you are wanting I know.
  9. If I right click / hold to move, in the elevation view, it works like I'm thinking you want it to
  10. Here is the one for a home I recently rebuilt after fire in 2017 in Sonoma Valley Sprinkler Layout Plan.pdf
  11. I looked at VANSPACE3D and it looks like a pretty good value at 19$ for one year access. You would have to trick CA, which needs a room with walls and ceilings etc, to place objects (make invisible walls and place a van symbol over every thing). Just guessing.
  12. Easiest way is to download to desktop, then drag into open plan. Add to library if desired.
  13. I just tried your plan, and was able to open wall using tab key when select opened room first Worked in both full camera and perspective full overview
  14. Does not come with the rack though If you want more, consider the 3D Warehouse
  15. Whats cool is that you can import SketchUp models into Chief. Just download to your desktop and drag into open plan. You can save them to your User Library too. So if your good with SU, you may still model there for now. I realize these examples are not exactly what you need, but... Some fluted columns at SketchUps 3DWarehouse
  16. SketchUp's 3D Warehouse has many. Download a model to your desktop, and drag it into an open plan. Here is one example Auto Lift
  17. Eric, at 00:45 seconds into the first linked video, the instructor shows that "when you open a new plan with the out of the box default template, there are several saved plan views already integrated into the plan". I cannot find the template she is referring to. Where might that be ? thanks, J
  18. Or, morphing into the TV showing yule log all day with Christmas music playing all day. How bout a symbol for that one ?
  19. Open Help and find the Custom Muntins section See if that helps you work it out.
  20. Interesting, I am not familiar with that function (showing secondary units of measurement in single dimension line ) Now I know. May I ask why you are needing to have this show in a plan ? So the plan could work on more than one country ?
  21. thanks, always good to get back to basics.
  22. Never noticed that C key also lets you resize. Differently, but works too. X seems more dynamic.
  23. Because this type of outlet is usually under a kitchen sink, powering the garbage disposal, and because the power cords you have to buy and attach to a garbage disposal often have one of those right angle plugs with the cord coming out the bottom, it is best to have the switched half be on the bottom. Otherwise the cord may occlude the bottom ( if the plug has to go in the top.) You need the always on half available for the DW My 2 cents
  24. Hold down the X key as you grab and drag corner
