they basically told me that they have dabbled with chief as an option but primarly use sketchup and revit. so for now i am sol for this peticular application...just as fast to draw from scratch

I totally get if I know the size of everything I can draw pretty quick. I guess with my ultimate plan was I had bought the Structure sensor so I can scan properties I work for investment company and we buy homes remodel and approve them so for me the Structure sensor was to be able to get a quick scan of a home in essentially have blueprints without having to hire an architect to map it out yes I can do that myself but being the builder and the planter my plate is pretty full so I was planner I was looking for something to speed the process along

ok after everything i have tried i think your right...^ having followed all tutorials to the T and exploring different variables in tutorial i started thinking it would not work because the import comes in as one big cad block and there are no individual wall lines i can define

this is a dwg i have and it is flawless in sketchup. Global_Parlee.dwg

My question is I have a 3-D camera for my iPad that scans interiors and I can use it to completely lay out a house once I have made my scans I send them to the company and they send me in return a DWG file that’s exactly what I scan from the house. I know the 3-D works in his spot on because I can open the DWG up in sketch up and it looks perfect when I follow the chief to Torio‘s to import into chief and use cad to walls I can’t seem to get it to work I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. When I import the file into chief I cannot click on individual wall lines it imports as one big image I don’t know how I can get past this stage
