  1. nice I get it right and Perry gets the Best Answer what do you mean you can't adjust ? move out from building? , add extra dim points as needed? cos I can do that no issue with the edit handles , at least on my test plan just now , and it how I remembering it working , I usually have it one as you only get to use the Button ONCE
  2. tell him to Try ATI direct ( or Nvidia unless both comps are ATI Radeons) , not windows Update ...they NEVER have the latest and not always the best either http://www.amd.com/en-us/products/graphics/desktop actually not sure it is a desktop but try this link , if he is computer tech illiterate try the AutoDetect way 1st. http://support.amd.com/en-us/download
  3. looks like you played with the ceiling structure on the 1st floor ? you have a non default ceilings at 11 1/4 " in most Rooms , I set those back to default after setting the stairwell as a bedroom ,temporarily, instead of open below and it seems to have sorted itself out and I can now access all the floor structure heights etc in the DBX's. *** I may have played with another setting before doing this so YMMV
  4. it's called your finger don't click on Auto Dims Icon Twice .... try turning on Auto refresh for your old setup instead
  5. Damn he might be right looking at the plan view I see a footing line..... **note to self check all images posted...
  6. and use the Edit>Delete>Delete Objects DBX to get them all in one go.... do you have Auto refresh on for Ext.Dims?
  7. or you have a brick ledge set in the Wall DBX?
  8. Try updating the video drivers
  9. It sounds like you may not be aware of using the tab key to get to each individual window within a Bay, Bow,Bow grouping ? Check this thread: https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/5534-bay-bow-and-box-windows/?hl=%2Bbay+%2Bwindow
  10. I think P. Is right , perhaps older Intel integrated video cards in both. M.
  11. the 3D Plants in the Library have the same effect....
  12. check his other post here https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/5597-3d-models-from-web/
  13. Thanks Graeme , I need to do that too.
  14. Good cos it looks pretty much like the photos I saw , except the room above the garage roof needs lowering , but I don't see any railings... if you went in from baseline another 2-3" ? with the Mansard setting it would look closer I think, looks a bit short now, on the main house. M.
  15. I meant the room over the garage, popping up thru the roof , it's roof is lower than main garage/entry roof. I'll download plan when back in the Office soon but still not clear on your issue. M.
  16. the garage popout room roof is lower than the garage roof , and garage is lower than main house ...in the photos ... so what are you trying to do?

    Log Homes

    there used to be a Log wall and truss Libraries ...but have not checked lately
  20. I am Dualbooting Win7 and Win10 at the moment , and I know that the Win10 preview will stop working any day now , but was hoping I can install Win10 on the separate partition and continue on , so I can still use win7 as a backup OS until Win10 sorts itself out if needed.
  21. from the pic Greg it looks like you lost the front entry space .....so Chief isn't "confused" any longer ....though you could turn off the Roof rebuild , if it's now right and do whatever you need to your walls.... M.
  22. I guess that's why Win 10 is Free I 'm beta testing Win10 a bit too but haven't tried CA on it , do you know if we can Dual boot Win10 , or will the Free Upgrade only all an Upgrade to existing Os's? M.
  23. I guess it's how I read it , I thought it meant the Leica's were iOS only but not good , that's a severe crimp in the BT capability with only two to choose from , so I'd have to wonder about Bosch's own App and exporting it's Data to CA. New 4.0 Feature List: -Android version (see sys. reqmts below) -Total Square Footage Calculation; turn off living area for uninhabited rooms (like garage and utility spaces) -Clone Tool; copy and paste objects -Adjustable Wall Widths; set wall widths for individual walls -Add-On Catalogs; purchase Library Content to expand your catalog -Improved Sojourn® “Walk Thru Model” experience -Standalone Dimension Tool -Updated User Interface -Additional Bluetooth Laser Support: Bosch Laser Meter GLM 100 C, Leica devices D810 & D910 (iOS only) - 2D Vector View; see materials applied in 3D views display in the 2D floor plan -And, a few other updates
  24. Did they change the Specs? , it was posted here that it does , which is why I checked out the Bosch last week https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/5122-drawing-an-as-built-from/page-3#entry49695
  25. good to know it works on the Note4 , it maybe my next purchase.... The Bosch one seems priced better than the Leica's I have seen in the past , it comes with software too, I have a Bosch non-Bluetooth which works fine, BT wasn't an option when I got mine 2-3 yrs ago http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CDIQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.boschtools.com%2FProducts%2FTools%2FPages%2FBoschProductDetail.aspx%3Fpid%3DGLM%2B100%2BC&ei=VtWUVYjrLs-voQTsz5uoDg&usg=AFQjCNHHjhnBdUbAmc1HUmp7-OsGHqpgAQ&bvm=bv.96952980,d.cGU http://www.amazon.com/Bosch-GLM-100-Bluetooth-Lithium-Ion/dp/B00G5R4E1S there are also 2-3 YT vids if you like the look of this model.
