For me it appears Macrium Reflect was involved too , but CA released a patch for this if you haven't updated yet ....still testing here.... no real info provided though on the cause. chief-architect-x14-update-notes_V4.24.2.2.1.pdf https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/34655-x14-frequent-freezing-anyone-else-having-this-problem/?do=findComment&comment=275131 Mick.

Determining where a file reference is coming from?
Kbird1 replied to OldBarnDesign's topic in General Q & A
might be enough to rename the Live Oak plan temporarily with .old or something.... M. -
Well that should nicely let the Client get the right look ......... M.

Try turning on the Layout Box Borders , I make the Line Style Orange , then go carefully page by page to find the (empty?) Layout Box and delete it. Mick -
Corner Cabinet Counter Top Extends Through 45 Degree Wall?
Kbird1 replied to HumbleChief's topic in General Q & A
One to report I'd say if Auto Fillers aren't finding the angled Wall. Mick. -
You haven't built the Framing I think............or your BackClip is too short to show one......what you are highlighting is the Fascia Board not the rafter.... M.

You're welcome, if the Manufacturer of the baluster/spindle has DXF/DWG files that would save the CAD drawing part, you can then convert to a 3D solid and then a Symbol. Mick.

2D Symbol Modification for Railing Wall Types for Schedules
Kbird1 replied to PMMully's topic in General Q & A
Yes..... though if you have changed your mind on SSA now? I believe there is a 90day(?) forgiveness policy , it is always going to be cheaper to get SSA , than upgrade to the next version the following yr. * perhaps try though....as this is not a Support Issue and you aren't asking for help , you are merely reporting a bug. M. -
Not Auto AFAIK, just remove the kick and float the cabinet 4" off the floor and use a Solid,or Shelf or etc,etc to make and position your own. Mick.

Print to PDF and make sure to check the Box for the watermark and then > Define the watermark ...text and page position.... https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/2432/adding-watermarks.html

It should be possible with a custom Railing PANEL , you will need to make both Balusters from 3D Solids and then save it as a Symbol. This KB Article should get you started with the general approach..... https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-02893/creating-custom-balusters-and-railing-panels.html M. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/18908-signature-here-at-chief-talk/?tab=comments#comment-155662

2D Symbol Modification for Railing Wall Types for Schedules
Kbird1 replied to PMMully's topic in General Q & A
You should report this to Tech. Support so the Developers are aware of a Blank Wall Type issue.... M. -
beat me I was just looking for this thread for you............. Mick.

We ask cos different Versions have different answers , and sometimes stuff just isn't possible in older Versions..... and really is it THAT much trouble?

There is no setting to auto adjust the footing Bottom Height to be 24" below the Terrain AFAIK.... Easiest way is to shot a CS Camera and do some measuring / math and in the Room's DBX > Structure Tab adjust the Stem Wall Height setting. Mick.

Seems to work fine for me in the default Chief Template doing a quick test............

....... see your PMs and Email.... Mick.

It is best to put the Schedule in a CAD Detail if possible ( assuming INT. has that option? - sorry I have never used it , only Premier ) and then send the Schedule to Layout , this gives a little more control over placement and Size , vs placing the Schedule in a Plan View and sending it to Layout with the Plan View. Mick.

I believe I have heard before from a Client that Interiors does NOT include the CAD Library ( no cabinet glass reflection Lines either ) and had forgotten that earlier but you can create one from an Electrical Schedule ....... Group Similar objects if you have place more than 1 of each item in a Plan , then convert the Schedule to Text and then Block it and save to your library. Assuming of course that Interiors has the above Options Comparison : x14-Premier vs Interiors-feature-matrix.pdf

Then I guess you are not using Chief Architect or Interiors ? but one of the Home Designer Products which is why we ask you to fill in your Forum Signature so we can tell. If I am right you should be over Here : https://hometalk.chiefarchitect.com/

It's in the Library under Arch. > CAD Blocks > Notes and legends *If you have Interiors , see my post near the Bottom too...

Does exporting a DWG file allow an interior designer to work in 3D?
Kbird1 replied to K-Lynn's topic in General Q & A
I think it is will depend on whether the Int. Designer needs to actually work on the Chief 3D Model or just View it, a Cost effective solution maybe for the ID to rent Chief ($199) or Home Designer Pro ($59) monthly or even purchase HD Pro ($600) as a more cost effective solution vs totally redrawing the Project in their own software. I am not sure you'd have much luck enforcing a License once the Plan is overseas and it wouldn't be a cheap process either. M. -
Does exporting a DWG file allow an interior designer to work in 3D?
Kbird1 replied to K-Lynn's topic in General Q & A
If you are worried just supply the PDF , the INT Designer can Trace the PDF in their SW to Create the 3D , I import and Trace ARCH. PDFs for Clients and create the 3D in Chief many times a year doing AS-Builts etc, so I'd assume other Software can do similar. I am not sure how well a 3D DWG from Chief Works when exported, have not been asked for that as all my clients use Chief. A 2D DWG export would give them Floor plans only to "trace" which can be a bit easier than tracing a PDF. Mick.
