Easy! That's awesome Alaskan_Son! I knew I had seen that dialog box at some point in the past and I was challenged to try and figure it out. Thanks!!!

Well maybe?, I just reread your post and saw that Toolbars is already checked.

I reproduced it...
Click View, Toolbars (to toggle the 'tool ribbon' on/off)

Well blow me down! Since you ask it that way, I now realize that dishwashers are installed between two bases. DOH!
Now I must check to see that my cabinet guy is not charging me for the linear footage for that "non cabinet".
Thank you!!!!

Am I missing something? When I place a basic dishwasher in a cabinet base, the cabinet base disappears from the cabinet schedule and the material list. However, the dishwasher and cabinet show up in 2D and 3D views. I was able to reproduce the issue with a basic plan attached.
Thank you.

Wow! That's nuts how technology has changed. Off topic here a bit, my first PC in 1986 had a 20MB HDD the size of dictionary - thought I'd never run out of disk space. Now, my smart phone can take photos that can be larger than 20MB! That same smart phone of mine has a 120GB micro SD card the size of a dime and my computer has a 500GB NVMe PCIe SSD drive on a circuit board the size of club cracker. Back to work now!

About 10 years ago, I invested in a Synology DS211+ 6TB (2 x 3000GB) 2-bay NAS Server and glad I did. Although it's support life has ended, it is still running strong and Synology still has regular updates. It has many features - archiving many photos, files, etc. It can be your own personal cloud, audio and video server as well. I have StorageCraft ShadowProtect SPX on all of our home/office networked PCs performing regular backups to the NAS. About 2 years ago, I purchased two 6TB drives because they were getting less expensive and I just felt the NAS need some breathing room for storage area. I pulled one of the 3TB drives out of the NAS "hot" and plugged in a new 6TB drives and with a few clicks, the NAS system began rebuilding the data for the new drive in system. It took several hours, but all went well. I did the same for the second 3TB drive.
Two types of computer users - those who backup regularly and those who wish they had!
Sorry for the long post.

Another little thing that annoys me in X11. Haven't taken the step to X12 just yet, but is there now an option in X12 to keep the aspect ratio in 'point to point resize'?

When I open the camera view, I get the DBX indicating missing files:

marble slab 1.jpg
select-cedarmill-timber-bark.jpgBecause I don't have these files, I just click DONE and then close the camera. Once I open the camera again, it only takes less than 6 seconds.
If I had the files, I could test again. See my signature for my system specifications.

Hello Rene, I am curious about the details of your 40" screen? I used a 23" for the longest time and recently moved to a 28" and wished I had gone with something larger So many detailed choices! Thanks!

Dave - ditto very nice project! Is it strictly X10?

Here's my stab at it. The bottom base width is unknown, but the lower circle can be sized to hit each point.

I have used Bluebeam Revu for several years to do takeoffs from PDFs. Even if I have created something in Chief, to me, Revu is my 'go to' application. Great for a really quick tile takeoff to send to my supplier. I think it would work well for what you are wanting to do - every line you can draw over a wall will be included in a markup list that can be group totaled, sorted, etc. All to scale because you can 'calibrate' Revu to match the scale of whatever you open. I know there are most likely ways to do some of the same tasks in Chief, but Revu is very intuitive right from the start.
Give the trial download a shot.- you won't be disappointed. They also have some sample and training videos.

File associations are created upon the installation of Chief Architect. On a Windows system, you can use "File Explorer" to locate, move or file your .plan or .layout files anywhere you want. Then, simply double clicking the .plan or .layout file in "File Explorer" will launch Chief Architect.

Yes X10 has been sweet.. especially PBR (love it).. As far as X11 I am easily excited.. Would love something special..
X5 has been meeting my needs. But, from what I've read on this forum, I would really love to take X5 to X10 or X11 - waiting on pricing special they sometimes have around the end of the year.

I have skinned the PDF scale cat several ways in CA, but mostly use known horizontal or vertical distances to calculate a resize factor for the Transform / Replicate Object dialog box. I wish CA had a calibration tool like Bluebeam REVU. Just my two cents...

In X5, I can delete the Living Area Room Label, save and reopen the plan to verify the Living Area Room Label is still gone. I can then break an exterior wall to open it or just pull back a corner connection. As soon as you open up the exterior wall, the Living Area Room Label reappears.

What version of Windows are you using?
Updating your signature with your system info may help get to the bottom of your problem.
Just my thoughts...
I use McAfee and was having the same issue with X5-64-bit (see my other posts regarding this). I uninstalled X5-64-bit and installed X5-32-bit and have not had the issue since. I did talk to McAfee after seeing posts that McAfee was the issue - they say if the AV software did quarantine a file, it would be logged and not set to zero file size in it's program location. With the many occurrences while attempting to find what was causing X5-64-bit to crash, there was nothing in the McAfee logs indicating that McAfee "touched" or quarantined the DLL files. Just trying to make sense of this, I could reinstall X5-64-bit to see if it occurs again but CA X5-32-bit is working fine so far and I can get my work done.
-
Known issue. Not McAfee. Who knows what causes this? I uninstalled X5 64 bit and reinstalled X5 32 bit and have not had the issue again.
-
Just got off the phone with McAfee support. Why would McAfee set a DLL filesize to zero and stamp it with the current date/time and not notify me or log the action. Just asking....
-
The popup window will tell you the file name and location. See attached image. Sometimes it was a single DLL, sometimes several popups indicating different DLLs. I restored the DLL files from backup to a temp directory and when happened again, I just copied them to their location and X5 would work again until next time. This was using X5 64 bit and the issue has not occurred since I installed X5 32 bit.
