Exactly , that doesn't work ---don't add paint layers to wall definitions..( use the pattern color of the drywall ) ......remove both Neutral White Layers..... M.

Would be my guess too , it works on Ceiling but not on Walls in Chief as it is 0" thick. Mick.

If you don't NEED the new PBR-RT View you can get a cheaper graphics card and it will essentially be like using X12 , the new Views are the only reason you need an RTX card ( 2000 or 3000 Series ). But not really as you list doesn't give any specs on the mobo, ram etc etc but at the moment getting a pre-built is still the most reasonable cost way to get a 3000 series in most cases especially if you are due to get a new system anyway. eg Dell has the Black Friday in July Sale on right now..... in CDN at least https://deals.dell.com/en-ca/productdetail/9ovl I'd go 32GB ram and a 512GB NVME and 2TB Data drive though..... M.

- Change the Schedule Text Style - Columns widths can be adjusted with the Edit handle when you single click a schedule - look for the Diamond - Row height is dependent on Font Size ..........AFAIK - In the Schedule DBX make sure Use Scale > Plan Scale is checked

This you should ask be added to the Manual Dermot .... (and a memo sent to T.Support. ) M.

The Electrical Plan is "Just a (Saved Plan) View" , no need to send it to a CAD detail , just the Electrical Schedule and Legend perhaps.... M.

I will have to keep my eyes open in X13 as a lot of my work currently is still in X12 , but I am now starting new projects in X13. M.

One way for sure but currently SP's are limited in their functionality in regards to what you can add to an SP . ( eg Cabinet Partitions can't be last I looked)

Unfortunately in x13 , saving Items to the Library still resets all Options to "Defaults" it seems which is a real PITA when you have a symbol etc set just perfect and the height etc is all removed when added to the Library. I am not sure why this insistence on "default" persists and we can't save stuff as we want them specified.... and have spent time on setting up. Mick.

More disturbing is the fact that CA has told me multiple times ( different techs) that "Chief does not have a memory" in regards to this Room naming Issue.... I begged to differ but we all know it happens in certain circumstances. M.

Check the Layer Color as Joe suggested.......... And make permanent Changes like this in your Template , not the the current Plan......or save Current plan as your new Template is also an Option we have nowadays... M.

1st off it is best practice to put Schedules in Individual CAD Details to keep Plan View Speeds up , you then send them to Layout, on the appropriate page where you can then scale them like ant Layout Box further if needed eg 1/8" instead of 1/4" = 1' **** Put the Schedules in your Template Plan CAD Details and you only ever need to do them Once.... And - Change the Schedule Text Style - Columns widths can be adjusted with the Edit handle when you single click a schedule - look for the Diamond - Row height is dependent on Font Size ..........AFAIK - In the Schedule DBX make sure Use Scale > Plan Scale is checked

Michael was just asking cos' They work on "Fixes" based on the number of bug reports , so the more reports the higher it goes on the List....

Good to know , not sure I have run into that issue.... I know there is an issue in elevation for cabinet hardware for example , unless it is somehow related to that? I have had to that recently myself to get outlines of Symbols properly in elevation.... M.

I think it is just that you have such long names for some Layers , annotations etc which caused all the drop downs to changes sizes as my Toolbars weren't locked, I just haven't seen it so dramatic before M.

you skim reading again Perhaps try a "Repair" from Control Panel>Programs and Features............. KB running the .msi file again will sometimes make the same offer too

a "Repair" didn't help then? M.

I would say report it , looks like a bug ...that wall layer is just an exact match to the main wall layer.... but should be 3/4" thick M.

same layerset in both views? backclipped view? M.

See if a Repair can fix it ...otherwise a full reinstall perhaps.... Folders all have Folders within? not empty eg

I thought "Allow Low Roof Plans" was given to use to stop these Interactions with lower Roof planes but it is on in your Plan. I am not sure what is up with your Toolbars ( long custom names?) or why they effect my Toolbars in this Plan but this is weird too.... guess I forgot to lock my toolbars again sometime recently , thanks for the reminder Normal Your Plan

Someone Mentioned doing a Cad Detail from View and Copying it back into the Elevation , until it is fixed..... *found it finally but doesn't say much more.... https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/31321-new-computer-questions/?do=findComment&comment=246908

I think it is a Bug Larry , it seems like 2 different things depending...... (1) short trusses > is related to the wall on the lower level in the Garage that the Truss just happens to line up with it seems...... Draw a new truss 12' up or down in the plan and it seems to build ok for me....Playing a bit more and the truss either builds to the Ridge (1) or stops at the end of the Wall (2) ----used REF layer to see the wall below... (2) Playing a bit more again and the "Weird truss" seems to be trying to snap onto the front Entry wall it just happens to line up with, neither is right , so you should probably put it in.

www.pugetsystems.com I believe MarkMc just got a new Desktop from AXADirect - contact Kyle he told me he recommends them, and has ordered a 2nd system from them too....... but I built my Own. M.
