    That's interesting, I'd be cautious too. If you can't find it anywhere else perhaps you can download it to a flash drive and then scan for a virus.

    Garage

    ericepv replied to decorators3's topic in General Q & A

    Use the dimension of one of the existing features (16' w garage door, 80" h, entry door, etc) as scale. Not a perfect solution but it will get you close.

    There are several brackets in the Federal Brace catalog which is available for download from Chief. There's also a selection on 3D Warehouse.

    In the 'Railing' tab of your DBX,select 'Open with Middle Raii'. From there you can select the specifics if the middle rail.

    Bar Tops

    ericepv replied to CoachB's topic in General Q & A

    The easiest way would be to adjust the overhang of the counter in the DBX for the cabinet (in the 'General' tab). If you have an unconventional shape for the counter, you can easily draw a custom countertop https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-01023/editing-a-countertop-into-a-custom-shape.html

    If all you want to do is get a seamless joint between the wall and soffit, you should be able to accomplish that in PBR or Clay mode. Just make sure the outer surfaces are aligned.

    I made this from a glass wall, split into 3 panels. For the center panel, I used a glass shower door placed into an invisible wall...

    SHave you tried drawing the wall as a railing and then inserting the door?

    I found this in my user library, I think I got it from 3D Warehouse... Crofton 9450-160.dae

    You can also specify a 'Slim Shaker' door (in the Bonus catalogs) and make the door panel glass.

    Check your roof planes around the dormer, make sure that they are not cutting into the wall.

    After installing the latest studio driver (580.97), Chief started crashing w/ PBR's. Going back to the previous driver (577.0) has solved the problem for now.Has anyone else been experiencing this?
  20. ericepv
    I had a project like awhile ago. I used solids for the walls (Chief won't do tilted walls). You might be able to use roof planes instead.
