Yes Keynotes!! Thank you...am I a mind reader over there at Chief Architect? Thank You!

Hello, I have seen others use a type of call out schedule with very complex plans that have a lot of details on a plan, this was with autocad. My question is: Can I somehow create a details schedule based off call out numbers. I would like to place a detail number on the plan and have the description in a chart somewhere else. Then I can label many details on a plan without cluttered words and arrows all over a plan. Thus far I have had to painfully create these lists and edit them, some type of schedule tool would be nice!! Thanks!

I can not find that setting. Here is a better picture

Hello! In the rest of the plan all the rafters are framed properly to sit on the top of the top plate the way they are suppose to. This one roof planes rafters are sitting on top of the top plate and where the rafters are cut and should be sitting on the top plate they are hanging over. I played with a few settings and cant seem to get it to work. ??? Thanks!

Im using soffit on the floor in various locations for different things like hatch doors and other things and this is my question: How do I stop the baseboards from building automatically around the soffit when I place it on the ground? Thanks!

Thank You!!!

Hello everyone! I have been doing a lot of ray tracing with Chief Architect and it does a beautiful job for my local residential clients who want additions built and remodels done. I really hate to say this but the quality of the Chief Architect ray trace is not standing up anywhere close to what some people online are producing for larger clients on a commercial level. My question is: What are some software recommendations where I could transfer my plan files and create a much higher quality ray trace? Some of these ray traces my competitors are putting out are absolutely shocking and unbelievable and Chief Architect sadly could never create that as of now. Another issue I ran into is that on some of my more in depth plans it took me over 24 hours for one ray trace. I'm set with chief architect for my plans but I need to take action with the quality and productivity of my ray traces before I fall behind the ball with my competitors. Thanks!

Holy cow! That's a good sketchup add on!

How long did it take you to do the chair?

I have looked every where with no luck, does anybody have a texture that resembles this floor? Notice it has dark line between boards. This is an epoxy floor someone made by hand. Thanks!

You rock chopsaw!!!!!

Greg_NY could you post a video of making the chair in Sketchup? I'm curious to see that. Thank you chopsaw! Watching video now.

Any idea of how I would make the pieces of the chair that hold the back rest longer inside chief architect? Is there a video for that? Thanks!

This is exactly what Ive been looking for. If you know of any more resources let me know! Great appreciation to you! Andy

Thank you. I am slightly trying to modify this chair to look like the chair in the picture. I also have a lot of little edits that I would like to do to many other chief symbols that are close to what I need but need a small edit here or there. I am trying to learn how to edit 3D symbols in chief but have been unsuccessful in finding the resources to learn. The chair in the chief picture is close to the same but needs the two pieces that hold the back rest to be a little longer. Thanks!
