Kbird1

I have downloaded it several times with no joy. I am using Windows Defender and I am not sure if it can be Disabled like other AnitVirus Solutions but will look into it. Thx. Will give it a try , have not heard of this issue before. This made me think maybe Win10 is labelling it Blocked when downloaded so will look at that too.... Mick

Cabinets as well as walls are mentioned so I have a feeling Chris maybe right.... ie you have accidently toggled off Temp. Dimensions.

Thanks P. ...just my usual luck then

just wondering if anyone else is get the Error messages in the Latest version , have tried a Reboot and then install straight away but no help this time... ( I got the update message this afternoon)

There are 2 in the Core Catalog now, Under MEP>Ventilation> but I have not played with them to see if there are any "quirks"

@rlackore Robert didn't you make a Tub similar to this for someone last year? M.

It sounds like you have Home Designer Pro ( 2019) vs Chief Architect Premier ( or Interiors ) so it maybe better to ask on the HomeTalk Forum instead of the Chief Talk https://hometalk.chiefarchitect.com/forum/5-qa/ Many aspects ( basics of CA ) are the same in Pro to Premier but nobody here would be able to give specific advice as the won't be using that version ( assuming I am correct about HD Pro. Eric ( Username Solver here) is one person I know who is familiar with both , maybe he can help. @solver Mick.

That was me in the Suggestion (Forum) Post , I had a walls in an Old Commerical Building we found had 12 layers after Destructive investigation asked for by the City and Engineer. M.

It's one I suggest , at least for the 1st attempt , however as noted it does not always work 100% of the Time.... * don't forget to add you +1 to the Suggestion for more Layers in that Forum too..... https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/25997-need-a-few-more-wall-layers/?do=findComment&comment=208782

You should likely still send it in Larry , as I'd consider that a "bug" since the Text rotates just fine but the numbers seem to be "hardcoded" to stay in "normal" orientation , and they should follow the Schedule orientation. Just one of those small things nobody thought to "test" before in Beta etc. M.

Post the Plan when you have issues, otherwise it is just a game of 20 Questions...... ........ way toooooo many things and settings involved. Mick.

Methinks doth may assume too much

Great Idea Rob ! if the Client insists on that naming scheme for sure Edit each window label in the current plan to what they want , then open the Libary and make a New Folder for the Client ,and then save each window to the Library and move it to the New Folder for Reuse - you can even then make New Icons ( place library item Tool) and then a Special Toolbar just for this Client. M.

Not automated but you can open the Windows and specify the Label if needed You could possibly Use the Note Schedule instead or in X12, we can now make a Custom Schedules too. Mick.

Been having a few issues with it myself this morning ---Server maintenance maybe being Sunday?

there have been other "workarounds" but over the last 2 (?) years or more, but it seems like the group select, open ( do nothing) and Close Trick works for everyone. M.

Only the hard part left then , it can be a bit finicky. You might want to add Truss and Attic Walls to the OP Tags , others will likely find this info helpful too when they search. Mick.

You could still send it in as I think it works correctly if you don't have the 1/2 wall part - ie 6" all the way across , it's when you break it like in Rene's Video it all goes a bit sideways ...literally in my case yesterday... the curb part jumped 1/2 the wall width approx. each time I tried it and I had to realign them. M.

I guess I missed that way back there somewhere ? Sounds like you have a solution though, and you can even make a Icon for it and not use Chief's Door Dropdown for Shower Doors My guess would be that by saving it to the Library the Door "loses" some of it Parametric behaviors ( it's "smarts" ) which in this Case is a good thing ... M.

PS forgot to mention you should be using the option on the Wall's Structure Tab to "Balloon Walls through" as the Mason's will obviously lay the walls Full Height , this also eliminates your Attic Wall issue... ( except where the window is as the Window will Stop Chief from deleting the Attic Wall - so do it manually and put the window back) https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/25914-chasing-attic-walls/?do=findComment&comment=208271 M.

He is already using the only known "trick" or work around that I am aware of.... M.

M.

I mention this yesterday and today......You have the Room set at 109" set it to 108" if you want a 9' "Plate Height" and rebuild the roof and the truss. Michael mentioned the "procedure" yesterday ...guess you missed that post ?

And it issue is? all you should now need to do is open the truss's DBX >check Sloped Flat Truss>check Force Rebuild>OK Is the Pink dashed line yours or Chief's auto layer changed? M.

It's always a good idea to check out the FAQ or KnowledgeBase (KB) especially if you think it's likely you aren't the 1st one to ask the Question............ https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00036/creating-shaped-windows.html M.
