Thanks Brian I'll check again but have not seen that option yet..... being an upgrade , does that mean I wont have X6 as well ? ie side by side with the beta?

(insert emoticon with tears) Thanks P . guess I'll call them tomorrow if I don't see it by later tonight. Mick.

Is the Beta Only for those in the US perhaps? still don't see it.... M.

Ooops sorry Dennis I thought the time shown was your time but I guess it shows localtime which was 8am so I took off the extra 3 hrs its probably being released in batches so the Servers don't get flooded/over run , not in my locker yet... M.

let them get to work and update the Server Dennis it was 5am when you posted there time....

I don't have X7 but one of the "fixes" is apparently Pocket Door Framing according to the Whats New PDF ,hopefully works as advertised.... ***** Also please please make door side lites DOORS!! that are fixed. So they go on the right layer and have the same settings as doors, so i can adjust the side lite panels and glazing... ***** that however +1 ,might need to go in the suggestions forum though Phil.

Phils plan looks ok in overview in X6 ( in windows) ,using same Balcony technique as Bill

NO Rich it was aimed at Steve his plan I downloaded had the porch roof at 8 /12 but his PDF shows 6/12 which drops the roofline making room for the corbels, it also shows 3 windows ,but asked for one originally , then 2 which changes the game plan , you can't use the Auto Box window with multiple windows Originally I did it without all the pertinent information ,,, I blame Steve ie its 2 storey above a porch with 3 windows not 1..... don't have the beta to play in yet.... Mick

All good info , but don't rely on one product to "do it all" as Java said its more likely to be Malware or a Hijack these days so make sure you run tools for Malware too , other good ones Java didn't mention and all free ,especially if you are infected are adwcleaner, roguekiller, JRT (junkware removal Tool) , TDSSKiller, Rkill Malware Killer , however do a little reading , some of these tools are powerful . Malwarebytes Pro will run full time unlike the free version and is currently $24.95 for 3 computers..... (no affiliation) M.

you aren't "using" Avast if you only let it bootscan for Rootkits and Viruses , let it run in realtime as it should... did you read post #9 ? Cleaning the Browser should help with that , if not try Malwarebytes , then try HitmanPro next. Turning on the popup blocker in IE means you have to RC a lot of links online but it does help stop "ambush" type websites from immediately loading a 2nd page via a popup and downloading Malware to your Comp. when you click on an interesting Google Link. You have to be Proactive these days , and Macs are no longer immune to this stuff since the OS is now big enough to make it worth while for these @#$%$#@ to go to the trouble. And stay off sites with "FREE" TV shows and movies ......cleaning up a friend's laptop right now ..Malwarebytes found 432 "problems" on the 1st run ! M.

It should run anyway I think Scott but in Avast's Tools Menu Run the Browser cleaner app anyway to be sure Avast is a good Anti Virus but at least in windows (for me) it's Web Rep Browser Addon causes IE to crash ,took me months to figure out what was causing it but no issues once removed. ( if you also use Avira Free ,they will remove each others web Browser addon saying it is bad too but don't think Avira is on Mac ) you should look at a dedicated Malware Program too to work along side Avast being it is Malware causing your issue not a virus perse. Malwarebytes is good in Windows with a free or paid version but I don't know the Mac EcoSystem at all. http://www.malwarebytes.org/

roof pitch on your porch is 8/12 drawing shows 6/12 , which is room for your corbels.... and I see 3 windows

can you select the soffit in 3D view and pull it up or down to "mend" the hole? M.

you lost the ceiling in the porch as it it set at 175" ,switching it to default causes your Box window to disappear though. actually it is inside the porch roof is the box window supposed to be under the existing Main roof or have its own roof as seen in your plan ?cx edit: I see Bill posted above while I was playing ....Nice ...

Ahhhhhh your original question didn't mention 2 separate windows , I think you'd have to make the 1 look like 2 , or do the Box window manually instead to allow that, but am not 100% sure I'd need to play a bit ...might have time later to try if some else doesnt answer 1st. to edit the window not the Box Bay hit tab or Next after selecting the Bay. M.

it sounds like a standard Auto Box Window with a couple of brackets from the library , is it not working/ what is the problem? M. edit : your settings seem to work for me Steve on Auto ..I didn't add the brackets btw.... and you need to delete each side window at 12" depth 12x36 Box window.plan

double post see other one

PM sent Mick

are you sure Chief is using the Nvidia Card and not the intergrated Intel 4600 which it uses normally to save battery power ? see the render panel in the Prefs. The Quadro cards gain you nothing in Chief , if going to desktop get a GTX 970..... or a 770 to save $$$ perhaps with 3 or 4GB of Ram. M.

Okay thanks for clearing that up Arthur , the Auto healing in X6 is REALLY aggressive compared to older versions I have , which seemed to "play nice" when I tried it later last night. guess I need to figure out the right drawing Order so I don't need to touch anything again once done..... Thanks guys... M.

Totally agree on the One Tab for all railing info........ +1 I was not aware the Railing must be different on the Landings ......That I would call a Bug and explains why I can get it to work occasionally using the wall break tool but how often do you see that in real life ? I rarely if ever have a straight flight,as space is always tight. I will give it a go , but do you mean totally different or, is say making Landing Rail all 2 1/8 square rather than 2" enough for the Prog. to "think" it is different? Thanks Scott

played a bit more and a single fllght works fine and I can get a one rail to behave occasionally after breaking the rail at the edge of the landing with the break wall tool but I have never had to do that before that I remember. I have found the occasional auto generated Room Divider Wall in the stairwell too, which just seems strange... latest plan Landing-Stair Issue_orig.plan beginning to think I have a gremlin , plan posted fine with the plan still open this time....

would be my guess too...

Yes wrong term I guess..... I meant Open to access the trimmer and components dialog the tab key or next button will get you to the window itself that you clicked on instead of the Bay so you can adjust them individually , and tighter to the corners depending on framing and Casing etc. Normally each Auto Bay Window is sized automatically depending on Bay Size and the framing and casing settings otherwise. thanks Alan.
