  1. Add it in the Suggestions Forum you will likely get some +1's from others.
  2. best to post the plan or at least a test plan
  3. 1.42 calories... if that were the case CA could sell Chief as exercise Software and I'd be thin as a Rail with all these DBX's
  4. Switch to is on the Configuration Tab if you have it ? if not there, try Edit >Preferences>Reset Options>Reset Side Windows hit ok and restart the Program HomeTalk is over here BTW ..same User ID and Password https://hometalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/forum/5-qa/ M.
  5. if none of the above work try holding the Ctrl Key after the 1st error message , Chief will then allow 2 sessions to Run.
  6. there is a video on creating wall legends , it might get you started........ http://video.chiefarchitect.com/?search=wall+legend
  7. Nice idea , this reminded me that I have always wished you could enter the skylight's width and Length in the DBX too , not just the frame height and width.
  8. check you have textures toggled on in the other views , if that isn't it posting pics of the issue will help get you an answer...
  9. I think in Chief it is normally Off? , there is a setting in the Render Panel I think to "Zoom Using Field of View" but I find it too disorientating at times, so have it off usually.
  10. wouldn't the transom above that window have the Header ? there is no framing above that Window
  11. Good Tip Rashid , got to remember that one to try next time...
  12. There was a thread about 6-8 weeks ago in the Off Topic Area Boxon1 , they are going to turn it off at some point , and suggested we transfer any info we wanted to keep to this Forum , you might want to read that thread, ? I agree it is valuable info still to many, I went looking for something yesterday and found no easy way to access it any longer since they removed the link off the front page. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/4805-old-forum-gone/?hl=%2Bold+%2Bforum
  13. there was this post by Simonas about his new 5K https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/5246-x7-is-slow-as-hell-on-new-imac-5k/?hl=imac you could try messaging him for some insights perhaps
  14. it's probably z-fighting , check this thread https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/5239-roof-ghosting-in-3d/?hl=z-fighting#entry45508
  15. not sure what the reference to Corel Draw in the Title is about ? but Chief X6 files will open natively in Chief X7 , however if you save them in X7 they wont open again in X6.
  16. and is searchable, at least as of today ,June 8,2015 , but may not be always , as they have already removed the link off this Forum's Front Page if you hadn't noticed. I couldn't get to the Forum Front page ( all links come back here) but the Search box is working on the RH side http://www.chieftalk.com/search.php?searchid=46428
  17. there are paint brushes with flexible handles too , you can bend to the shape needed and they hold that shape.... though I'm thinking it would need a whole new technique...
  18. I think they are imported on the CAD, Default Layer , so check if that Layer is Displayed by default ( (Active)Display Layer Options) in whatever Set you are Using.
  19. it should be I agree , add it as a Suggestion and i'll +1 it , I am surprised I don't see more request for it actually. the other thing missing is the Soffit Venting ( strip or otherwise ) M.
  20. Don't think so , I don't ever remember seeing this in CA , I always add a few Cross boxes and lines to Section views , but I guess you could do it manually. of course I may be missing it too M.
  21. +1 on Larry's advice And I don't know that DVD but the ASUS one I have (24F1ST) is the Nastiest, loudest one I have ever heard.
  22. Because that is the Industry Standard in many parts of the World , any Builder knows to just Frame the RO to the next door size up so the one spec'd will fit in the RO. ie an 810mm Door's RO is 860mm . Doing Masonry walls it may well be different though.
  23. They are doing server maintenance etc today , I saw in the announcements area , but when I checked the Library after the download for more details the Dal Tile Lib. wasn't there. edit : appears to be there now http://3dlibrary.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?r=site/detail/684
  24. It looks like the error message mentions my File Graham , I guess you skipped reading Post # 136 Scott you should have it if you downloaded Graham's Texture file in post no# 165 too
  25. I do it about once a week too ....Today Dal Tile was updated , we now have Mosaics and ONE Quartz lines too. ( was only Ceramic and Porcelain)
