Are the cabinet mounted outlets gone in X9? I can't find them in the library where they were in X8; are they somewhere else or have they been removed? I use these all the time, very disappointed if they are gone...

So after working with Chief Support and our own IT department I was able to determine that I in fact did not have the latest driver for my Nvidia card. There was a release of a driver update on Tuesday of this week; I had checked the driver status on Monday. The card I am using is the GeForce GT 525M, the latest driver version should be 368.39. If you are using this card the update is out there if you want it. Thanks again for all the help.

Thanks Doug, I have been trying to get on the Nvidia but am not able to make that happen yet. I'm sure it is some simple thing due to user error...

Thanks very much, this isn't holding me up right now but I'd like to get it resolved. As always, appreciate all the help I receive on this forum.

Sorry, here is the render panel. I went to the Nvidia panel and changed the video card for X8 three times, hitting apply button every time, but the change won't stick. I have to add the X8 program to the list every time as well, this also doesn't stick. I tried to call customer support but they are in a training meeting, no luck there. Does anyone know how to make this video card change from within Chief. I had someone from support talk me through it last week but foolishly didn't make any notes about how it was done and can't remember now. Any help would be appreciated.

here are the screen shots but I'm pretty sure I just need to get the card switched back to the Nvidia Render panel.bmp video card status.bmp

Brien, I just checked out the video card status in preferences and it shows up as the onboard Intel card. I spoke with someone in support last week and they talked me through how to switch to the Nvidia card but I can't recall the process. My understanding was that I would only need to change this one time but obviously something happened to kick me back to the Intel default. Can you let me know how to switch this back to the Nvidia card, hopefully this will alleviate the problem. Thanks

Here is the plan, any help is appreciated.

Michael, I just have the Extended toolbar configuration with some addition tools I use a lot pulled in. No Autocad experience but I am pretty linear in my thinking...(my wife might describe it somewhat differently). Graeme, I will attach the plan but haven't done that on here in forever and don't have time for a search on how to do it. Can anyone give me a quick review on how to get it done? Thanks

Here is the image dimension grief.bmp

Sorry, stand by, trying to get the image on here

Has anyone seen their dimensions do this in a section view? If so, can you let me know how I can address it; I use section views pretty regularly to dimension things. I am running an Nvidia graphics card, I'm hoping nobody says that is the problem...

I always run into this problem when I use a full inset door. I have to delete or reduce the depths on the shelves if I don't want to see it in elevation. Overlay doors are fine.

I think you can set a differing material for both sides of the door, yes? Casings will show up with the pass thru as well, not sure how you get around that one.

Why not use a door, set door thickness and material? No need to add a p-line solid

I assume that by "futzing" you don't want to open the camera and type in your own label in caps. This is the only way I have found to get the label in all caps.

Thanks Jon. Do you know if I can only access these settings on startup?

I have an Intel Graphics processor in my laptop but also have NVIDIA GeForce GT 525M. I was able to get Chief X5 to use the NVIDIA processor but can't remember how. Anyone able to help be get X6 to look at the NVIDIA instead of the Intel? Thanks.

Found the installer, it is on our server. Thanks for the help.

Thanks Lew. Is this the installer? Chief Architect Premier X5 Data

Can anyone tell me where to find the X5 installer on my laptop so i can back it up before downloading X6? Thanks.
