Perhaps a Videocard Driver Issue on the Old Computer ?

Then try X11 it should be in your Digital Locker under the Upgrade Button assuming your SSA goes past March 30th... Very nicely done Rob , I'm sure all the trades appreciate it..... M.

Now you just burst his bubble ....shhhhhh he was so happy today too

Do you have the old Computer and can access the Program? The Data Folder in My Documents will have some of it including the User Library. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00001/migrating-chief-architect-to-a-new-computer.html https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00091/backing-up-library-content.html

Yep a bit strange but I hadn't noticed as I don't normally work with them on , good they can be turned off then as it looks messy.... you would think they would be inline with the glass , not an 1" off the Wall.

I would likely have don't it like Robert myself to be honest it is why I never looked in the Library , so was surprised to find that Library.... kinda surprised there isn't a GH in a bonus Library though eg Exterior Structures , along with playhouses etc.

Thanks Barry for sharing , I'll take a look for sure, not a big keyboarder due to a hand injury but , I need to get better at it.... PS , dont be shy do your Forum Signature ... Ohhh and some from Glenn too ...thx....

thanks Jerry , have not played with those at all...both Flat and Radius-ed Glass good for a Sunroom I guess..... in fact not sure I have seen them even mentioned on the Forum before...

If She's paying I am happy to work in X9 please pass on my name but seriously let Her know if She is going to upgrade to do it very soon, ie before x11 comes out next month or She will need to pay for a 2 year Upgrade instad of 1, ie about double the cost. ( doing it now gets her X11 too, due to SSA) M.

Hi BT , thx , looks like we need the Context set to Owner after evaluating the Marco too?..... KB

For the Rails hit replace and goto Library>Core>ARCH>Moldings,Profiles,Extrus.>Handrails and Caps>round rail

Thanks for the heads Up Alan , I've been using the Free Version of DraftSight in a Similar Way...... but this mayabe worth a look too, looks like last stable release was 2.1.3 , though there are beta Releases too.

Yes 1 month after P.Beta approx. usually yes yes yes It will install side by side with X10 so don't worry.... it's not an overwrite type upgrade.....

It's do-able with Railings, it just wont have the mounting plate but you can do those easily enough with a Solid if needed. use round newels set at 2 1/2 inch and change the Rails to Round as well and the Material to Chrome.... your's won't look like this as it is X10 PBR View , sorry don't have X8 installed anymore.

Glad it worked out, 3GB !........... that's one healthy Library... you can also export it in Sections as you have it organised if need...

Should be doable with Fixed Windows pretty easily , I haven't noticed a Pre-made one , but I wasn't looking either....

See above as I mentioned ...you were tooooo quick on that reinstall it can also be done manually if needed , there are Tuts. in the KB. M.

I can imagine , I was thinking the cabinets would be an issue , and not just for you....it'd be an installer's nightmare but luckily it is at the "most" square corner

Yeah I come across it too but I haven't seen one that far out.... I thought CA was experiencing a glitch at 1st as everything looked jagged And we all know how whiny those Framers are ....

The Core libraries you mean ? or the Toolbars,textures and everything else is missing? did you check everything in the migrate dialog? you can force it to re-run but a reinstall on it's own won't do it, you need to rename or delete the .ini file 1st. see below

I stand Corrected

Yes you can export the Entire User Folder , I do it occassionally for backup purposes, if it can't find a texture at export time it will let you tell it where it is , eg if you moved a folder or something while doing some cleanup. I would say just give it a try NOW before you really need too.

We aren't supposed to "play" in that Folder

No chief does not do BIM ...the Jeldwen Files are actually for Revit (.rfa) you would need some kind of Converter at a minimum , say to Sketchup or 3DS or one of the importable file types. M.

Is that what you were looking for ? or was it the ALDO (Active Layer Display Options) , to quickly switch layers on and off ? I normally always have it open on a second monitor but it lookks like several Pages with a red Checkmark over it ....
