I'm pretty sure I've solved this before, but my aging brain is giving me problems today. How does one enable the deck to show up when it's over a section of roof? Any help would be most appreciated.

Aha! I spoke too soon. An hour later, the catalogs have deployed. Thank you.

That works fine for User Catalog, but I still don't see how to handle Bonus and Manufacturers.

After viewing many threads and FAQs, I still don't see a straightforward way to achieve this, and I've been a power user for decades. I've been using X17 for a while, with the normal complaints about Managed Mode requiring an export of each project to work on a different machine. That's old news. But now, with a completely new, and ridiculously expensive PC, I see no logical way to export ALL my data to the new machine.
I've copied and pasted all the Program Data into the corresponding folders on the new machine. Same with User Data, like toolbars, etc. Nothing is showing up on the new PC, regardless of using mangaged or unmangaged mode. Downloading everything from the Chief website would be time-consuming and wasteful since I already have the files on the old machine.
Even when exporting the User Library, the only library that can be exported, hundreds of textures are missing during the export process. I didn't bother trying to import into the new PC since so many textures were missing.

I didn't want to trouble you, Rene. I will look at what you sent in the morning. Thanks so much!

This is probably simple, but I've not encountered it for a long time and don't remember the solution. While the walls are still present, the rooms are gone, as are their floors. When I turn on wall framing, it has raised about a foot as evidenced by the framing showing up at the bottom of the windows in 3D. Other elements raised too, like the exterior stone and its cap.
The plan was created in X16, and I've had the same issue when bringing it forward to X17.
The plan is too large to attach here, but if you want to take a look, it can be downloaded here for X17: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/s6clgf0pou6t0vds9nb7b/PELLEGRINO-16-6.caproj?rlkey=wihf3j2ih78g96rdrp336vf53&dl=0

There should be some available in the 3D warehouse for Sketchup.

No issues. It is solid. Managed Projects will take some getting used to.

Right in front of me. Thanks Steve!

Does anyone know where the setting is, if it exists, to set a beam size for railing walls when choosing a Post to Beam railing?
-
And add mulch or something to outline its path.

I'll give that a try. Thanks.

Seems like there's a missing option in the roof dialog. If we could separate rafter tails from the rafters (calling them something else, of course), we could vertically offset them to be below the soffit. To my uneducated coding mind, it sounds simple. I suppose it's not.
-
I'm looking for suggestions on the easiest way to replicate the corbels. Rafter tails are not an option because the corbels are below the soffits. Manually attaching them to the horizontal elements should be simple, or so I assume, but I wonder if there's an automatic method. This abandoned home will eventually be a beauty once the squatters and their poop have been permanently removed.

Hi David. I'm aware of those options, but they are workarounds. If I want a green forest background, the inside rooms are tinted green, unlike in real life or photography. Thank you!
-
Looking at past threads, this topic has come up repeatedly. Since it's been a while, I'm asking anew: Is there a setting that will cause a backdrop to NOT color a scene? I can do it with images, or in Photoshop, but has Chief implemented a button that I don't know about to fix this? The attached scene is entirely too green when a forest backdrop is deployed.
-
That's it. Thanks so much!
-
Here's the plan. It's too large to attach. Thank you!
-
Any ideas if there's a way to prevent automatic ceilings from butting into an adjacent room where the ceiling heights differ? I'm sure I've encountered and fixed this issue in the past. As I age, my memory plays silly tricks. Not happy about that.
-
My solution was to copy all the files from the old machine and add them to the appropriate folder on the new one. But that is not intuitive.
-
Since getting a new machine, the library content other than Core and User is online only. Does anyone know if there's a way to download all at once? Otherwise, it means selecting each folder in the library individually to download them. That would be an unnecessary waste of time.
-
Only if they are identical, otherwise, you'll have to address them one at a time.

I don't know if this is helpful, but it's what I did on the most recent sound abatement plan.
Roof disables deck

The deck is definitely on the floor above the roofs. It's the only thing on that floor.
