  1. Cost of doing business i agree. If there arent that many changes in the program to make it better whats the point in my opinion. Just like autocad. You dont need to upgrade for every release. Nothing changes that much. However they rent their software now which has it cons but i need it to keep for certain drafts
  2. So they charge more if you wait every other edition. I got it. I mean x12 has some cool new stuff i hear, like tray ceiling so i will probably go with that. What about the my library, will it be affected? Also, do you uninstall the x11 when upgrading to x12 to save space on your computer?

    Upgrade

    First started using chief in late 2018 with X11. I skipped the X12 update but plan on doing the upgrade in december of this year. Two questions, is there another edition being released by then and will I lose everything in my bonus library i have accumulated for two years? Thanks.
  4. me either but "barndominimums" have become quite popular down here in south alabama. this is like my third one in a year's time.
  5. insert them on the attic level?
  6. no way, that's too easy. thanks man. i didn't even know they had a name for them.
  7. i figured negative reps means noone will take the time to help ya. they judge ya on them.
  8. i could comment on this but i would get negative reps by stating my opinion on my experience on here with a couple dudes. i'd rather be silent and just keep smiling. there are tons of dudes on here i look forward to hearing their feedback on when i ask a question.
  9. would these be polyline solids? not exactly a second floor right?
  10. yeah, i have never noticed that. thanks
  11. why are the ceiling joists running perpendicular to my rafters with autobuild framing? should i just manually run them?

    floors

    i have wood planks for flooring coming in at the wrong rotation. how can we rotate the planks 90 deg?
  15. got it guys, i went to the library and downloaded and it gives me panels now like i wanted. thanks!
  16. every lattice i choose gives me the spray option.
  17. did you download that from the 3d library?

    lattice

    guys, first time using lattice. this is a polyline solid and im not happy with it using what i circled. what is the best way to create this? library has "lattice 1" lattice 2" & "lattice 3" but it wont spray the pline solid. surely you dont have created the holes in pline solid to see thru for a realistic view?
  19. Yep, that was it. Works great.
  20. what exactly do you mean?
  21. my settings are exactly like that and still get the dimensions to the brick.
  22. is there a setting for automatic dims on a foundation to pull from the stemwall and not the brick veneer?
  23. you are correct. i found that clicking on the wall around the window doesn't work. you have to click on the actual window itself for the tab button to find it. thanks
  24. tried that but its a block. it doesnt show where it can be exploded to manipulate anything.
