  1. I can't seem to get the image placed here but it you select an item in your schedule (door, window, cabinet, etc.) you will see two icons in the tray to either move the item up or down in the schedule. I have not noticed that they move if I do this instead of dragging them up or down.
  2. I use the notes schedules quite a bit and they seem pretty stable when I use these tools to move items up and down.
  3. Hmmm, it seemed to work for me, maybe someone else can shed some light.
  4. You should be able to set this in the Advanced Options in the stair DBX (see image). Keep in mind that the Top is actually the top of the uppermost riser, not the tread.
  5. We use some relatively inexpensive 50" monitors (Vizio, TCL) and Chromecast, works great without having to run cables. Assuming you have wi-fi.
  6. Based on your screen shot, if your distance from slab top to 1st floor joist bottom is 88-7/8, your stem wall height should be 92-7/8 assuming it is a 4' slab.
  7. Chief is really the only software that needs the Quadro so not needed for any other programs I am running. I got the notice of the updated driver this morning but I don't want to cause any problems with how things are working right now. The release you have linked is what I got, I have enough knowledge about this to be dangerous and it seemed like you have quite a bit of background with it so I thought I would check to see if you thought it was safe.
  8. @Kbird1 Mick, I currently am using GeForce Game Ready Driver 442.23 and am seeing Quadro Desktop Release 450 (version 451.77) as an apparent update, am I safe to download this driver to run my graphics (OpenGL Renderer Quadro T2000/PCIe/SSE2)?
  9. I typically select the plan view referenced in the layout, click on the link icon, and relink the view to the new plan.
  10. Disregard my question, didn't go far enough in modifying the railing wall, realized the railing width can be changed in the Rails tab of the DBX. Thanks for the tip, I have struggled with this multiple times.
  11. Sounds quite simple, are you doing this in the Wall Type? If so, won't that increase the width of your railing as the railing width follows the wall thickness, correct?
  12. I've seen ALDO a bunch of times today, I'm sure it is a simple answer but I can't figure out what this is referring to...help a brother out?
  13. Not sure if this is what you are looking for but this was done with manual planes. The larger issue is the viability of how to build it, I don't see how it could ever be built this way in the real world. kGarageAddition (1).plan
  14. Not sure if it is the best way but I create a new Note type (Electrical 2, Plumbing 2, etc.) and create a new Note schedule that looks at that Note type instead of the original.
  15. I have had a problem losing toolbars on some older versions (particularly X7), all of them would totally disappear. I was advised to rename the toolbar folder in the program file ("old toolbars") then close and reopen Chief. The program could then search and find the toolbars again and would open them. Might not be the solution in this case.
  16. My understanding is that the Default Sets are equivalent to the Anno Sets...?
  17. So If I am seeing Active Defaults in the top box (top screenshot), then everything below that are the "Active" defaults for that plan view? I set and edit them in this dialog box?
