    Did something change in recent versions...I used to be able to move the whole screen with sliders like in my pic below rather than use the arrow keys, thanks!

    Thanks! I grabbed a few and added them into our symbols Library to save others the trouble of having to search the Internet and then upload into Chief! Large Landscaping Boulders

    Take your pick! Boulders.calibz

    Thanks, yes I had the Fabricator send me CAD files of some of the basic shapes and then I modified them and created the design, however, I did not take the time to create actual CAD blocks and create a Model/Symbol as I did with the gate. LOL, hey whatever works!

    I suppose that I can create a few with CAD blocks but thought I would ask first!

    I hope not, I am hopeful that the rollers can ride on the lower bar I created but will find out when I meet with the Fabrication Company next week. The good news is that they are extremely capable! Just look at the VERY unique 10' wide by 12' tall entry door that I designed for my personal residence and they fabricated it exacted as designed!

    I've updated the files due to several errors and forgot to add the bottom clavos so if you previously downloaded anything, please use the R1 versions, thanks!
  8. John_B
    Please note the updates!

    I spent several days creating a very ornate driveway gate for my personal residence. It's 20'x5' tall with a rise to 7' in the center. I've added it in the Symbols Library for anyone interested!

    DivewaygateR1.planDivewaygateR1.planThe only thing that I didn't create in 3D are the birdcages that go onto the bars. Enjoy! UPDATE! I found a few errors in the plan (an extra spindle and an overlap in the base so I corrected these, smoothed the radii as recommended below and added the Claovs to the bottom as well. PLEASE use the R1 files, sorry for the original miscue! Chief.calibz Divewaygate.plan GateR1.calibz DivewaygateR1.plan

    My files are not backed up on OneDrive, I have them backed up on a 2TB hard-drive and as I mentioned earlier, I don't see anything on it after a complete search
  16. John_B
    Yes, I have OneDrive so I just need an e-mail address to share a Folder with, that would be awesome!

    Thanks for the options and additional input folks, unfortunately I have always deleted the .calibz files. What's interesting is that I did find the the Program Data Hidden Files and there were only a handful of .calibz files there....very strange, oh well lesson learned because I did a file search on my 2TB back-up drive and there is nothing there either.
  18. John_B
    Thanks guys and Kbird1, I went to my hidden Files where the Program Data resides but the bulk of the files are simply gone.....very strange

    WTH....I really don't want to spend hours re-downloading them all....what happened?
  20. John_B
    Good point, thanks!

    I need to free up hard-drive space and noticed that I still have the older versions of Chief "Program Data" files....how can I be proof positive that I have them all in X11? I migrated data when I upgraded each time...is it safe to assume that it is there? Hate to "assume" lol!!!
  22. John_B
    Oh well, since I still had the file open I created a larger round and now it does look better I think! Thanks again all, love this Forum!
  23. John_B
    Thanks all for the help! I think I got the jist of how to play with this now even though it looks like the Gable really needs to be likely a half round rather than a quarter round like the real McCoy.

    Tried the gutter but didn't work....tried creating a Tile and then slightly re-oriented it 3 degrees for proper overlap but I think I need to taper the tile so that it overlaps properly (top is fine but the front isn't)...anyone with ideas how to taper this singular tile??? Getting awfully close using the Distributed Object Tool and offsetting the object -3" from ceiling!!! P.S. I left it concrete color for visual clarity lol!!!

    Thanks all for the replies and effort put into them...I think I'll try your approach for now Rene, can't believe the Chief Boys haven't stepped up with a simple option for this after all these years....
