  1. I see in the plan view framing header member the fill option is "Default" but where is the default set up at?
  2. I need a teak plank floor for a bathroom shower. Installing a floor material region where I need it but Teak Material is solid. Should I use Deck Planks? I guess I need to create a deck to get the planks.
  3. No the gap was Chief, so I added the post to cover it. Probably need a post anyway.
  4. The issue in the picture above is solved by another post or redo the symbol with 1" ends on the grid. That one has 1" ends. With a post the spacing is nice.
  5. Thanks Mick. I may give up on the boundary. Here is may progress so far. The panel is still messing with me. But I did build s gate. Wire Mesh 72.calibz
  6. This afternoon I'm messing around with this railing panel. I see that making a 6' high rail I need a 6' high symbol as Chief stretches in the vertical direction. In the horizontal direction Chief overlaps the pattern. But I wanted 1" gap left & tight. My mesh has 1" overlap on the left & right but the railing shifts the pattern. How do I get that side margin? Wire Mesh.calibz
  7. Good find Glen. Is there a way to scale that symbol?
  8. How can you use that on a railing?
  9. How did you make the mesh transparent? The one on the left is my psolids creation. Working with solids in Chief is a PITA. The one on the right is the Sq mesh applied to a psolid.
  10. Anyone have anything like this? I need to make a 6' fence & gate plus some large panels to grow vines on. Looks a little like Chain link turned 45 deg.
  11. Object Name. The door has no symbol to edit that I see. I just selected the exterior door & used the Add to Library tool.
  12. Your suggestion fixed the data in the Door Schedule. The user library door has the same automatic description so it must be hard coded. So I changed the description in the library door in the OI description so it is correct in the door sch.
  13. Thanks Mick, But where does the %automatic_description% source come from?
  14. Saving a french door to my catalog I wanted to change the Description. Can't seem to find where to change it.
  15. Can't upload this plan. Is there a common cause of the wall/floor intersections? Using the wall layer intersection tool does not work, plus it usually messes up the framing if you use a 45 deg.
  16. Both good suggestions. I have never tried the wide wipe-out line.
  17. The Doctor is very interesting in the plan development and doesn't want to see the extra line in plan view om his multi million dollar house. As a surgeon his is very picky. Chief says the only way to make it go away is to have the balcony floor at the same height as the interior. That's not going to happen. Any clever ways to deal with this? I'm preparing to use a solid fill poly with invisible border.
  18. I forgot about the browser update button. But as Eric said it should be a pointer that gets updated not a complete refresh of the preview image. Nothing in the Image changes just the pointer.
  19. Yes I was dragging the sheets in the Project Browser. The "Update All Views" did not restore the previews in the Project Browser.. Thanks for your interest.
  20. When I rearrange sheets in the layout set, dragging the sheets in the browser, the previews remain unchanged. This problem is resolved by closing the Layout file & reopening it. Is that normal behavior?
  21. That was the recommendation from tech support until they fix it. Good advice from Michael, the squeaky wheel as they say.
  22. Tech support confirmed the issue & turned it overt to software development to fix.
  23. Ah Ha! So I forgot to add one more hanger & when I went back to get one more Chief refused. Will report this.
