Pretty much any time on any type of file I try to open in the last few years freezes so I have to use my laptop screen only for Chief and side screen for emails etc only. It especially seems to happen when I ask it to render something but I don't think all the time. I just gave up but trying to now figure out the issue. I just bought a new screen and did it again. I have to Cntl-Alt-Delete and close out chief to get it to do anything when it freezes. I didn't know if there was some hidden setting on something I didn't know about. Thanks!

For me we have historical stone homes that have splayed window openings. Sometimes 12-24" thick walls and splayed sides, sometimes arch top but sometimes flat top and splayed sides only to the interior.

I have the same question as I have some thick splayed stone walls also. I have not figured out how to do it. Would love to see if anyone does. Thanks!

I have an ASUS ROG laptop to be able to run chief. However, whenever I use a second monitor (HDMI connection) and try and use both screens expanded it will freeze Chief. Has anyone else had that or what causes that to happen? I would have thought a gaming computer would be able to handle graphics on a separate monitor. It has always done this with the past few versions and last few years and with new monitor. Thanks for any advice! This is my computers info on the 'Gaming Center' that comes up. Sorry I am not a techy person! Running Chief Architect X12 Asus ROG GL702VSK Intel Core i7-7700HQ CPU 2.80GHz NVIGIA GeForce GTX 1070 GDDR5 8.0 GB (256 bit) 930GB HD (673 GB available) 12 GB RAM (3.8 available)

In X8 (and happened in others before) if I move a Chief file from one computer to the next sometimes some of my general plan notes, labels, etc wont all be visible. Meaning if I have the word 'Living Room' I may only be able to see the partial word 'Living Ro'...etc. until I manually drag the box wider to expose the rest of the label. Is there a default or something that is changing the text box size? Same text is being used on both computers and it doesnt change the size or type of font that Im aware of. It just changes the box so that the entire words arent being exposed. Is there a way to get them back to normal besides going through each label and expanding? Thanks!!! Well after posting the question I did find another thread that discussed the same issue and seems to be the consensus that people see it happen and no one knows how to fix it besides just resizing every time?...Thanks....
