  1. I should know the answer but I forget. What macro do I use to get each door to have a different number in my schedule. Thanks
  2. Bill I can't believe how you like to pick on an old man. I thought just Scott was up to that.
  3. Thanks Joe, I just think Doors, Schedules, Slabs, and Stairs are sadly lacking in chief. They don't seem to have the time or don't get it. I think the problem is the difference between software architects and architects.
  4. I have X11 and that is the problem for me. Won't print from X5, or X6. I downloaded pdf995 and it worked just fine. Its time for adobe to get with it.
  5. thanks Scott I changed it to a 3/4" thick temp glass wall. It worked fine to a point as Chief always does. Just not enough features for people doing custom stuff. We need more hardware, need a better way to show hinges. Better door numbering system, etc.
  6. I have been using polyline solids to show butt joint glass. I don't bother with the track. Track is shown on my details. Does anyone have a better way to show it. When I do a camera view the polyline does not show.
  7. Chief support led me to pdf995 it works just fine.
  8. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM YESTERDAT WITH x5
  9. In PHX it would have to be 11'x. They require 24" on each side of the door. I guess you could use a smaller door. I use 9' as a min. When I was back east 12'x24' was min.
  10. I just attempted to print form Chief to Acrobat Pro XI and nothing happens. Are there settings I'm missing to print from WIN 8.1 to Acrobat Pro. HELP PLEASE.
  11. Joe, As my Father the carpenter used to say. " you hit the nail on the head Son" . And you have to know that my favorite color is orange. Chief programmers, are you listening? This is not to much to ask for a Mature program that markets its features as being professionally proficient. This is so bad that I'm being teased about it. Ron
  12. I just deactivated my X6 license on line but my X5 license does not show up. I had to use GoToMyPC to deactivate my X5 license in Seattle due to the fact that I'm is Phoenix. In my way of thinking I should be able to see my X5 and X6 licenses online. Anybody have a comment.
  13. I get the error message when I place the door
  14. JOE, The offset has me baffled. I'm just a stupid ole man as the troll says.
  15. Larry, Joe's answer is right on as close as it gets. That being said The software architects at Chief differ in the way they use the term. Ron
  16. Dan, Why doesn't the new forum automatically sign me in from an email notification. The old forum did this without my entering a password or user name. HELP Regards Ron
  17. I finally set up my notifications from email but when I click on the email this is what I get.
  18. Get a PC, I don't have only problems. Itg's either the lack of rain or your MAC.
  19. I'm not sure that's possible. Chief has many deficiencies when it comes to real world construction. All I can say is they are getting better slowly
  20. Mr. Carrick, Thank you ever so much. You are a life saver. I had originally thought that someone under a bridge would come thru, but he is way to busy with his new MAC. Regards Ron
  21. I guess I'll try it once more. Thanks Much.
