1.Uninstall Autocad.

2. Never look back.

Ohhhh, yes, I am a temp cad box snapping fool.

For me, this is a pretty important snap point.

I have the mid point and center snap setting turned on but I do not get a snap point at the middle of a wall. Am I missing something?

How I would love thee to fill my closed polylines,

But I do love the dashed line clickety click.

Let me count the ways...

I have seen that. There is a high end development near me that requires a qualified architect in order to review plans. I was looking at doing a project where I would have collaborated with a registered architect for the project.

 Nice job on the window. That looks great and who would have thought to make an exterior room?

Scott, my wife has an extra pass for the ATT tomorrow. What are you doing at work?

I have never experienced what you are writing about. Did you check the saved plan against the archived last back up save?

Version 9.5, is this a time travel post?

Timmy, for most things, the software works a lot like a carpenter. With the right set of instructions it will build exactly what you want. Asking the program to build the sheathing 24" thick is bound to cause some problems.

For that PDF, did you rotate it after importing? If you need to rotate your image, make it a jpg first.

He did mean polyline solid.  If you draw your solids in the elevation view it will be easy to manipulate them.

Also, you can use the Make Parrellel tool to rotate the entire object to match your slope of the roof.

What you wrote makes no sense. If the 1/8 scale fits on 12 x18 then the 1/4 scale should fit on 24 x 36.

P.S. The plan may open on floor one but the room is on floor 2.

Working in X7 and seeing the same slow down issues that others are seeing. I just reopened the attached plans. I am making some design development refinements and so I first opened the plan "PB Bath A". I went to delete the columns that are at the interior of the space:

The first time I tried this it took about 5 seconds after hitting delete to be able to move to the next task. Not the typical time frame in the past for deleting a pretty simple item. I did this for about 4 columns and thought that maybe it was due to the boolean shape I created by building the bath tub. There are a lot of faces there and I noticed some slow down after creating that item.

Next I deleted the bath tub shapes and then deleted columns without any time lag. So I reopened the original file where I had the time lag and copied the columns back in to the no bath file to see if there were delays in deleting the columns now. No delay.

Just for fun I hit delete again on the original file columns. No time delay.

Is this some sort of Non Darwinistic Law of Random Selection?

Please try and delete my columns in the PB Bath A and see if you get a delay.

Thanks. I am going the route of uploading to YouTube for now. I will let them do the conversion for me.

I have finally jumped into the walk through pond. Based on searching previous posts (are you reading this Joe?) I installed and am using the Xvid codec. I sent the video to a client who could not open the video. I sent him to the Xvid site to download the codec but I don't like to do that sort of thing (making work for clients).

Is there a better codec to use that will work for more folks and including working with Quicktime?

Can any of you mac users play the attached video (it did not work at the Apple store tonight)?

I need some support ledgers bolted on to my place in Carmel. See you on Tuesday.

Uhhh, yeah! That's what I was trying to say as opposed to not reading your post with any intelligence.

In the Eagle Catalog.

A.D., when are we going to hang out. Or, wait, maybe you are me?

I see what Arthur sees.

In the attached movie I have some areas that I am not happy with the camera movement. I am trying to focus the movie on the cupola. If you see the plan views I have a pretty smooth curve for my path by adjusting to a circle but there are some bumps in the camera that bother me. One thing I can not seem to do is get the cameras to display with a focal point. Is this possible with the walk thru camera? If I could aim each camera better this might solve the problem areas.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks all. I had not downloaded that bonus library. That will work.
