Yes, I'm using the file-export picture function, and have tested on numerous plans, so it is not plan specific.  My video card has not changed, and X15 and prior versions have no issue with this same function.  Thanks for the tips though.  Perhaps tech support is the way to go.

Cheers!

Hi There,

I recently downloaded the X16 Beta.  I noticed today that when I try to export a jpeg of a cross section, that some of the section details (cabinet labels, and outline of structure get shifted, and overlaid.

When I Export, I have 'Use Active Window Size' Checked, and nothing else.

I've tried playing with these settings, though still have the same result.

I've attached a couple of pics.

Is anyone else having this problem?

Thx!

First picture was modeled in chief, and imported into Twin Motion.  Second picture is the actual build (real photo). 

Just worked on a fun little garage/clubhouse. I will send you a PM.

Ahh ... that is a good idea!  I'm charging hourly anyways!

I was toying with Niche tool ... but too cumbersome for each door and window.

Thanks Renerrabbit!

Thanks Guys.  Yeah .. I don't want to mess around with the wall layers.  Simon, I like your idea about the 2-way swing.  I didn't want to reverse swing direction entirely.

That helps offset the 3D view.   

Never Mind ... Client is happy with Finished Door Jamb.

Nope .... that didn't seem to help, but thanks anyways.

Hi Don, 

Thanks for the response.  No I didn't, but when I do that, it just frames the recessed area.

Hi There,

I'm modeling a home with thick foundation walls.

My exterior doors are recessed (even though I haven't selected recessed into wall in the door options).

I don't want the door to be recessed, but instead flush with the exterior surface.  How do I do this?

Thank you!!

Hi Michael, 

Has someone helped you with this yet?  I can offer services if you're still looking for help.

Cheers,

It can be, but might look funny, as it tilts up.  It looks like it is meant to be installed in the ground.  Sorry about that.  I found a free one in Sketchup's 3D warehouse.  I've attached here.  You can import it into Chief, size it to your liking, and change the color as well.

If you want it to light up, you can add a light source to it.

Hi There,

You can find one in the Bonus Catalog - Lighting No. 05 Deck and Path.

Hi There,

Have you tried around over your garden bed with the 'spline terrain curb'?

You can adjust the height and width of the curb.  If you are wanting a cap stone detail as well, you can copy/paste hold your new curb and convert to a polyline solid.

You can play around with different materials to get the look your after.

Hope this helps.
