I think I might be loosing my mind! I thought that we had a "Bring To Front" selection when we are drawing cad lines? When I draw a line over a cad box it doesn't show the line over the box. It starts and stops each side of it. I thought we can bring the line to the front but I don't see that selection anymore? Help Please!

I'm paid up and ready for the upgrade!!! Another Christmas present to unwrap!!!

Tough Crowd!

I just remembered Up until about a year ago I would use a big screen TV to run 3D for my customers to see and I never had the issue at that time. Also I just noticed that I can drag the 3D from my laptop screen to the external monitor and it works that way. It appears to only act up when I try to open 3D on the external monitor.

Just downloaded X7 and Im having the same problem again. I think I will download the older version on to my older computer because it has been cleaned and formatted and see if I still have the issue. The older versions downloaded really fast on this computer so I dont know that x10 isn't somehow affecting this computer still.

OK, so I just tried X9 and im having the same problem. Now really confused. I dont remember having this problem before x10

Downloading it now.

I don't see X9 in my digital locker. Do you think chief would put it in there for me to download and try it out? You got me curios now to try that.

Do you have a suggestion of a good video or other instruction some where for corbel or post supports? And would that be the same as knee braces? I haven't had to do that yet so I haven't even looked but I want to learn. I know that I can look it up but you may save me a little time if you can point me in the right direction from your experience. Thank You!

No I dont have X9 anymore but that is good advise

When you open the room specifications box for a single room you can adjust the room height for that room alone under the structures tab but you will need to rebuild or adjust your roof if it was already built.

Here is my video card status with Chief Don't forget that I am only having this issue when I send to or try to open on the external monitor. It works fine on the laptop

I have had this problem with x10 on my Lenovo and my Dell also after i installed x10. Both of those systems had the intel card and the nvidia in them. And again both lap tops.

Only one card in this computer

I can post my plan but I don't see how that would help. I have the problem globally so it doesn't matter if it is a new plan, old plan or something I'm currently working on. Here is a new plan I'm calling "Test Plan" file from my computer. I tested it as a new plan and still having the same problem. Test Plan.plan

Thank you for your help guy's!

PLEASE HELP! OK, so I'm really getting tired of this white screen coming up and loosing all my work! I have been on technical support with CA twice with this issue and so I need to find out if anyone else is having this problem and can help. PROBLEM: Whenever I try to open anything in 3D on my external monitor I get this dreaded white screen and the wonderful circle jerk. Just to be clear, there are no issues if I don't run the external monitor. I have never had this problem until the upgrade to Chief 10 I have been using laptops for several versions of Chief (ever since we could first do split screen) and this has not been an issue. THINGS I HAVE TRIED TO CORRECT IT: CA had me uncheck the box in to "Show Option on Startup" in the preferences under the general tab and then I was at least able to open the program and work with it CA also walked me through on how to get the very latest updated video card driver (didn't work). I messed around with screen resolutions and tried everything else under the sun with my computer guy I tried three different laptop computers and had the same problem. Only because I was in the middle of a computer upgrade I have tried 4 different name brands of monitors I would very much appreciate any help I can get to solve this problem. I think it is a CA glitch that needs to be fixed Here is a picture of what I get when i try to run anything on the external monitor in 3D. This picture all i did was try to edit a smoke detector.

No luck trying to make that work. I can select vertical or horizontal siding and it will show that pattern but I can get it to show the stucco (sand or concrete) pattern. There doesn't seem to be a simple solution.

I was playing around with different ways of sending the elevations into my layout page and I noticed on every one of them it does not show the stucco pattern. I tried looking around but couldn't figure out how to get the stucco pattern into the elevation view. Is this even possible to do?

I was always taught growing up if you don't have anything good to say about someone then just don't say anything at all.

What the difference between "Like" and "Approve" (upvote, downvote)? In other words you have three categories; Like, Upvote and Downvote. I just don't get how they are supposed to work together or which one to click on.

This was very well explained! I tried to use the liked thing in the lower right hand corner of the post but I cant figure out how that works so I'm just telling you. Thank You!

Day late and a dollar short Mr. Solver. Thanks for the help though!

Thank you Glenn! I was just looking in the wrong place. I'm not really even sure when they added that option. So used to doing a manual build I never even thought to check.

I didn't see an option to select a wall to place a dutch gable like we would to place a regular gable or hip. That was the purpose of asking the questions to see if I might be over looking something. I cant seems to find any instruction on it in the video's or help menus but sometimes that is because I'm not asking the right questions.
