  1. It only does it every now and then. Nothing continuous. I was just wondering if anyone else has had the same issue
  2. It is set to finished floor
  3. Thank Tommy. Its strange, It does happen always and in camera view it looks fine but you elevation view is where you see it. Its as if the XY is off but its not
  4. We build our cabinet with a default height of 35-1/4"
  5. When you have a base cabinet at the end of a run and it has a closed toe, how can i have the molding wrap around that closed toe? Is the only way to do it is manually with a molding P/S? Thanks
  6. Has anyone else had the issue when placing a dishwasher that after it is inserted the top of it is where it needs to be but the bottom extends down below the cabinets into the floor. This has happened even using core library dishwasher not something imported from Sketch-Up or others. See attached. Thanks
  7. I had that happen to some wall cabinets and I found I had placed the rope lighting half way inside and half way outside the bottom of the cabinet box and it showed inside and out. You may want to check the positioning height of the rope light compared to the bottom of the cabinet toe kick. I found I was only off 7/16". Once I move it down that amount it fixed it
  8. I have added several toolbar shortcuts to my toolbar for library items I use alot. Is there a way to have a.... lets call it a master toolbar icon on the tool bar that just like when you select the wall or cabinet icon the associated icons show up in the child tool palette or can a drop down list be created. I mainly would like to have an electrical, cabinet, interior fixtures icon. See the attached screen print. Thanks
  9. I have attached a screen print of my screen when I have CA up. What has other done to fix the Windows 10 bottom task bar partial cover the bottom toolbar or chief. Thanks
  10. Thank you. I dont think I follow. I will try to find a training video on the CA website
  11. Thanks Mick. Ill try that next time
  12. Is there a way to add text as a default electrical symbol or change the fill color? I would to do a few things... One... is the be able to show existing electrical versus new electrical that we are adding such as which can lights are existing and which are new. Two... be able to add text to an electrical outlet. I would like to signify on a plan which outlets are backsplash versus other wall outlets such as an outlet for a vent hood, cooktop, interior cabinet lighting outlet or others. For the plan I made a few simple CAD line drawings to show these. It is the same outlet symbol with a "BS" in the middle of it to show it is a backsplash outlet. (See attached) Another reason for this is because sometimes especially in an island where I have an just an enclosure panel for an ice maker or dishwasher that are not actual cabinets. A surface outlet will usually connect itself the the side of a panel but not to the back of the opening where an outlet would be installed because it is not an actual cabinet and there's no surface for it to connect to. Thanks for any input.
  13. I have found at least my action causing this issue but don't know why because its happening every time. I normally work with three monitors extended in landscape mode at my desk. When we have clients come to the office to review plans, it is in our conference room on the other side of the wall from my office. I unplug these three monitors HDMI cables coming from the PC and then plug the HDMI going to my main center monitor to a HDMI cable that goes thru the wall to our 50" flat screen on the conference room wall. So at that point Im only working with one screen. After the meeting I plug the three monitors back in and I'm back to normal on everything except the library browser (side windows) have to be reset. Have no idea why this is happening every time.
  14. I reset the side bar default setting and it reappeared. Not sure what happened
  15. When I came in today and started working on a plan that I have been working on I can not get my library browser to open. I click the library icon and the check mark appears on the icon but the library does not open. Its not hidden behind any other screen doc. This is not with any one plan. All plans. New or existing so the reason I'm not uploading the plan. Any ideas? Thanks Rob
  16. Sign up with David with DMDesigns. He has lots of what you're looking for. https://www.chieftutor.net/ FYI. I don't work for him or benefit from promoting him but I am a member.
  17. Has anyone had the issue of while working in a plan that your pointer / cursor disappears. It is visible either on the top, bottom or side tool bars but as soon as you move down into the plan area it totally disappears until you move back up into a tool bar. It always happens when working on my laptop not my desktop. I usually do an entire plan back up to a flash drive then open the plan from that flash drive on my laptop and immediately save it to laptop C drive. Its not any particular plan but any plan. It only started since upgrading to X-11. I have use this Dell laptop for about two years. The only change made BEFORE moving to X-11 was to change the HD to a SSD. It has Windows 10 and all updates are current. See Attached Video Thanks Pointer Video.mp4
  18. Would anyone happen to have a Panasonic heater / vent fan like this one? Heater / fan only no light... Thanks
