  1. Hi, My Panels above were made in X10 , so it appears you will be able to Use them...... check back in a few minutes and I will export them from My library and add them to this Post. Okay , I have included the 3 different heights and a Wall Type for doing things like the Pic below, and the Materials used and a couple of other Cedar and Cable Railings I made a while back too.... 1 caveat is that Panels like these don't stretch and hold the Board Sizes eg 1x4, stretch the Panels and they will look like 1x6 Boards. You can use the size of the Panels to figure Out Railing height etc so the Boards remain 1x4. (right click in Library and choose Open Object) MHD Cedar 1 x 4 Horz. Slat Fence Panels.calibz Mick.
  2. 1st thing i'd do is try different PDF Printers eg Bullzip, Adobe, Chief Built In PDF etc and see if that is the Issue.... X11 just came out so answers maybe slow for this question for a day or too....
  3. Something like these ...... If you fill in your Sig. with the Software Version etc , I may be able to help you..... M.
  4. Renaming or Deleting the .ini file will do it ...it is not deleted on an uninstall , a good thing I guess in most cases as it also reinstates your Preferences etc on a reinstall. I suggest making a backup copy ( or rename it ) before deleting just in case , as you can see below in my pic I have several extra folders with backups. Once deleted I think the Repair Option in Control Panel>Programs or the Apps Settings will get it to run the migration again. *** confirmed working in post below *** It is normally in the User's AppData>Roaming Folder>Chief Architect Inc , if you have more than one version of Chief installed there will be multiple Files eg. C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Chief Architect Inc *** updated : there is also a setting in the .ini file .............. Migrate%20User%20Settings=false it maybe worth trying setting it =True to see if it triggers a migrate when X11 next starts

    It appears you have copied whole sections of the Core Library to your User Library eg the Microwaves and warming Drawers Check your X10 Library see if it looks the same....maybe a snafu on upgrading to X11?
  6. The Roof plane doesn't appear to cover the Whole Room or pass over the Wall that seems to be leaking light...
  7. Are you sure Rob ? as I don't think Wall Elevations show the wall above the Flat Ceiling line even if there is no Flat Ceiling.... people have been asking for that for a While now though....

    Just make sure you have a backup Copy someplace else too Joe.... M.
  9. Thanks Glenn , like Basil I thought from reading the Manual etc , (which says click the corresponding Toggle button), I thought I could click the same Icon again to go back to Default , but could never get it to work , so ended up add a Default button to my Toolbar too. M.
  10. Toggle has never worked for me either (PC), so I have a default Icon just for going back on my toolbar too.

    Thanks Joe, I renamed the Original Folder (-Orig) Yesterday , and copied my X10 Templates Folder into CA/DATA/X11 , so I had all my old Templates too Did the same for Textures and Toolbars actually So maybe I have messed something up with all my copying and pasting, will have to look into it more now....

    That was my Plan too , that's why I uninstalled before Installing the Public Beta for X11, and have already started my New Template setup but am now wondering if I Started with the right File...

    It's called Residential Template.plan (Or Residential TemplateM if Metric) should be in Documents\Chief Architect Premier X11 Data\Templates or if it was overwritten by the migration a backup is in C:\Program Files\Chief Architect\Chief Architect Premier X11 (64 bit)\Templates
  18. Thanks Joe appreciate you Posting that... Mick.
  19. Not that I am aware of yet , and unless X11 just changed the ML for the better , it does not do a full industry standard take-off yet, it only lists exactly what is in the model ...without alot of work adding components and accessories etc yourself to each Item and working with macros etc...... this is also something I have wanted for a long while now as a Builder too.
  20. The Roof Plane Controls the Wall Height, setting the Overhang on that Side to 1 1/2" (flush to wall in cross section) may get you close , but the Roof plane will need to be edited if you plan on walking around the Corner to the Side Deck.
  21. Not sure there is a good solution in Chief to get everything right unfortunately , CA doesn't add a Sill plate to the Top of Full Masonry Walls ( eg Brick or CMU/Block) AFAIK for the Roof framing to land on. I thought CA treated Brick walls slightly differently but that maybe only in regards to their alignment with walls above and below. Not quite sure how you quoted me as saying that Glenn , that was Rik's Comment... but thanks for the Tip on the Single Wall layer Issue and recessing Windows
  22. Then you are in luck , it is a new Feature in X11, Notes Schedules .....public Beta was released yesterday , if you have SSA , see the Upgrade Button in your Digital Locker...
  23. Move it down into the Main Layer ..... delete any layers you don't need ...see my Pic above below of the Wall definition Or Save the wall type from my plan to your Library , then draw a short length in your Plan and then you'll find it in the Wall types dropdown and can assign it to the existing walls ...assuming it works for your Build? You may need a framing Layer and drywall too? ( you can then delete the short wall, when done). M. should look like this:
  24. Kbird are you using X11? Double Brick Wall Plan_X10.plan Thought you might say that so here is X10 you can get x11 if you have SSA *** the Brick Mould is from the Azek Library , so you may need to install it if you want a True Brick Mould.
  25. This is the one I made above Double Brick 9in with Plaster Wall.calibz
