Thanks Jon.

Scott, seems you your self is not in agreement with your self. I am sorry this time !!

Well, it is not a joke and it is true that there is no awning tool, but the concepts needed to have an awning tool(standard louver) already there, the said tool allows us to apply all the behaviors of simple as such awnings. you can controll the angle of inclination, louver thickness, number of louvers, top height and bottom heights of the awning. It is the Stair tool, here is the test plan. awning.zip

you can split it in to a 2,3,4......n. just draw a rectangular poly line with a very small width to cross the base line plolyline, then use "subtract polylines" you need to select the RBPL first then subtract ...l am not also sure why you wanted, any way split it that way.

use the awning tool! Lol... follow the updates of x9.

As rechard said, some one can help you, but still not clear what your problem is.

Add lites in the widow dbx. or if that is some thing you can't achieve using lites, try loading custom muntins. custom muntins can be loaded as a cad block having the shape you desire and then load as. custom muntins(refer the help & ref manual for further info). if that doesnt work there is still a way to add window treatments. in window dbx, go through the window treatments and look at the options you have.

Are you using pony walls? if so, you have the setting there in the PW dbx to choose the default wall to show in plan view. that is what determines the situation to appear, if you choose the upper as the default. Most likely the best answer, but still not sure.

Ladycoralie, sure David and glenn has said it well, I will also give you a free offer of an hour session on Skype. please PM me your Skype name and I will let you know when I can do that for you.

just guessing, 2 options

Much appreciated!! very nice work.

Carter lf you could have done this with P S, you pretty well know that chief uses image to simulate materials and patterns to show the vector views. But good job, with little peciency you can create the level of detail you need using C A.

seems some thing like this. though your request needs to be some more clear to exactly help.

Contact Graham and Rich, if you want to stick with chief. learn their great tips to save minimum 19Hrs&45min.

Chopsaw, Great video and your vocal is well with your mic. I am sure you have a lot new stuffs to share. keep up sir.

Rich, your experiments are fantastic! 199%. The certified CA.T has gone the 100%, yet can't......

If you want to auto reset the wall height of specific wall, open property dbx for that wall and in structure tab there is "set to default height" button. though not sure if that is one of the auto things you were asking.

Good job Deedee, looks great. though not sure the time it took you to get those details.

Scott, that is cool. Here, 8 hours time difference, but I will try to arrange time in the future if possible. Actually there are times I am active even at your late nights, but working with my customers out there. Regarding the points raised, I would like to say what I know about #3. the smart lines are topo lines that had a Z value initially in the AutoCAD. there are various ways that could happen. * by opening the line properties you can manually input the value of Z inside AutoCAD. * if the .DWG topo were produced by other programmes that generate topo lines like, Eagle Point or similar softwares that can process data from Global Mapper or survey data. then the imported cad file has automatically those smart topo lines. just a thought. thanks and keep up the good works. we all, even those us power users really owe you and Glenn a lot... thanks

Rich, your RT are really awesome. Your secrets please?!

seems that you can achieve that one, by using the just a wall and a roof plane for the sloped wall. As Eric said, control wall height in elevation.

yes that is exactly the way, but also you can make a panel of your stacked railing and use as one railing wall for simplicity.

Perfect solution Michael. thanks for sharing

Chopsaw thanks for the complements, and sure you are right 100%, with the same concept of transform and replicate tool, you should be able to do that using plolyline solids. thanks
