  1. DzinEye, when i attempt to put the tile in your plan or mine, I get an "I" in a white circle w/ seriph unlike what is shown here. When I try to take a screenshot to send to you, the cursor makes the I in the circle go away so I'm not able to show you what it looks like and the tile doesn't come into the plan? i have been successful with other brought in images (fabrics, etc.) so not sure what is not working now?
  2. I'll attempt a grout line in AI so it's all one package!
  3. I used Mac photo edit to crop so they are perfectly square. I don't have any grout line since I have photos of each tile. Taking screenshots makes for fuzzier pics. Not sure how I'm going to show the client a terra cotta grout but I'll take that on once I get a damn pattern for the backsplash!
  4. Ok that's what I'm doing now with individual tiles and Adobe AI. I'll see how far I get and check back.
  5. I don't despise the idea but don't understand. In CA, how do I make a special layer? I have the tiles in the Library Browser. Where do I go from there?
  6. Ok I'll take your word for it since it's obvious from my post, I'm kind of clueless! Stay healthy and fear-less!
  7. Ok I guess I just have to play with it because I am still not understanding the specifics of what you are saying. I'll start with blocks of 9 tiles and import to browser. Seems crazy to pay this much for a program and have it be so time-consuming! I very much appreciate your giving me your time in this!
  8. Thanks Chopsaw! So if I go in to Photoshop and put the tiles together as I want, do I then bring in to Library Browser and how do I apply it to the backsplash? I'm trying now to just apply a single tile and not being successful.
  9. Does anyone have any suggestions for making a 4.25" x 4.25" tile backsplash that I can insert different Talavera tiles in from the Library Browser? CA tech gave me what seems complicated by using the Custom Backsplash tool and creating a slab of each tile. And please don't ask for my signature — if it worked, I'd have it but it doesn't!
  10. I just drew a triangle and filled so all set! thanks!
  11. When I drew by hand, I used a triangle to signify the entrance to a building or room. Anyone have a suggestion for how to do this in Chief X11?
  12. Oh that did it! I picked sides and corners and now I get dimensions yes I know about alignment. I keep rearranging the lockers and don't know how to get them aligned. I figure when I have a plan I like, I can do the multiple copy again and straighten out.
  13. Ah I see that when I'm attempting to dimension the lockers and grooming stations, I get nothing but with the walls, I get dimensions. How do I fix that? And thank you so very much!
  14. I see a line but then when I finish, nothing is shown. The line has no dimension.
  15. i know I saw in a tutorial somewhere how to get manual dimensions to show up when you aren't doing a Kitchen or Bath but not finding now. Any tips? CA Premier X11 OS Mojave
  16. Oh I would appreciate that VHampton!
  17. Thanks all Yes I've checked the bonus catalogs. Followed VHampton's advice and if I wasn't in a dry month, I'd be drinking too! Get what's shown below but when I put it in the plan, it's not shown as seen from above? I've been trying to do a signature and am told that my 28 KB are too large. I've input what version, where I am and my OS to no avail. Will have to reach out to CA Support tomorrow but just too damn frustrated at the moment since I've attempted 3 times!
  18. Where do I find human figures in X11?
  19. Hallelujah! What awesome help you have given me — I am truly grateful! Have a lovely evening!
