  1. These are the two Small sizes I had...8x11 and 11x17 Imperial Small Size Layouts.zip EDIT: just saw you other post and it looks like you have X9 , so these wont help as they are out of X10.... Mick.
  2. Just use them then if you still have the Older version Installed , don't you have a Template Version with all your Info already filled in on page 0 though? M.

    Font size

    If you click on the Scale Button you can play with sizes till you get what you want , its tell you the Print size or you can enter the desire sire and it will figure it out for you. (3mm is 1/8 in my pic...i just happen to be in a metric plan right now.)
  4. See if this plan helps John ..... MHD_Deck Railing-Two Corner Posts.plan Notes from the plan : Sample Deck in Plan :
  5. The Double Wall Method with an Invisible Wall/Railing Wall method Douglas discovered by accident it the easiest way to do two posts at the corner found so far , which is also how I build them ITRW. ( no invisible wall ITRW though ). That thread is the best , perhaps only one? on that particular method, so worth a re-read for sure...

    Font size

    Copy the Default 1/4" Text style and make a new 1/4" x4" style and try it out via print to PDF perhaps , I think the Scale will tell you the approx. print size though. Switch back if it is a no-go for you... M.
  7. You can also get the Installer Files from the Updates Archive Webpage if you know your Serial No# etc https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/updates/oldupdates.html
  8. Then Call Customer Service as no one here can fix an empty Digital Locker.... https://www.chiefarchitect.com/company/contact.html You will need your old computer's HDD or a Backup to restore any old Work though....
  9. there are a few in the Chief Library now under MEP and I think Joe Carrick may have posted a Library in this forum at one point too.
  10. Well that's a new one to me.... and not good.... A Room Divider in that Opening cuts the delay in half , and another at the bottom of the stairs between the two curves walls also seems to help, but not 100%. Don't forget to delete one of the two staircases you have.....there should be no need for a CAD stair at the bottom either , just draw a 2 step straight staircase and it should join the curved one...the curved one does not reach the upper floor by the way. M.
  11. You can right Click the Post's Time and Date and choose Copy Link , and then paste the link in to a new or existing thread , you can then choose to post it as a Text Link or a Full Quoted HTML Box.(default)
  12. some thoughts.... some of them maybe Cross-sections lines? which are locked by Default so wouldn't be select-able , unlocking would fix that.... Or In Layout you can Use the Edit Layout Lines Tool , which should let you select Line work and delete as needed.
  13. They Play in FireFox which doesn't allow FlashPlayer anymore either ( or is that Java?) . The Video's themselves are .mp4 files so any media player should play them, not sure How your Site or Camtasia Site if linked to them is using the .mp4 files though.
  14. thanks for the Heads up no- one was sure why it was missing in X10, and thought it had slipped through the cracks somehow . Mick.
  15. Try a different PDF Printer , eg BullZip or try the Built in Chief PDF Printer and see if you get the same results , I find at time the Built in one gives different results. As a test try Printing Black and White , instead of Grayscale etc. M.
  16. Just noticed these issue on your Bay Window.... missed it as your plan opens on the second floor.... Your Garage door wall is not aligned with the Brick wall the Bay Window is in either...
  17. I don't see any bricks in your Plan? (yes I do, other end ... ) but it is doable with some playing around ...close enough? PS , I agree not a good idea to have plumbing in exterior wall unless extra precautions are taken...
  18. They still need a Roof and a Bottom as they need to be Insulated+waterproofed , at least in my experience the Top and bottom where just 3/4" MDF or Plywood. But perhaps you are referring to a different product? M.
  19. Thanks I'll keep that in mind , I did play with the Corners and Side Handles Options but it didn't seem to make alot of difference , so will need to play some more it seems , you may have hit the nail on the head , so to speak , though I noticed a day or too ago that the CA Crosshairs don't align to the middle of the Cursor but to one side off it, which I though maybe part of the issue...ie my aim. M
  20. Probably a good idea to work throught he Tutorial Guide for all the basics as you have time, but there is also the KnowledgeBase ( KB) which has many tutorials and the Video Tutorial Section as well. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/category/126/edit-tools.html https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/#playlist-85
  21. I like we now have Sticky Mode but for some reason I don't find it as easy to use as the old Tool , seems like I need to try multiple time to get it to fully cut about 1/2 the time it seems to be in break mode still not cut. M.
  22. HI Toby, I guess the fix only works for Chrome is that right? or did you need to turn off HW Acc. in all browsers ? I think I may have read in the Past that this was an issue with the Intel video drivers but I have no way currently to look into that , it's possible Windows Update , updated the Drivers along with other Updates recently ( usually 2nd Tues of each month) if you don't have drivers Turned Off for Windows Update. M.
  23. Okay ...with the line colour being White I had missed them , not sure why there are 3 there though.. all unconnected...
  24. I tried deleting those Demo walls before I deleted the Stairs and it didn't help here , so that is weird..... tried it again and it didn't help , but deleting the stairs and curved walls again did.... where are you seeing invisible walls in the kitchen though? , they are turned on but I don't see any? I do see some demo walls and Std. Polylines....
  25. I wish they hadn't changed it , the Old double click tool worked better it seemed , at least to me , now sure why?
