  1. Would be my 1st thought too assuming Attic Walls layer is On , not just Walls, Normal M.
  2. You can also select one cabinet and click on the Custom Countertop tool on your Toolbar ...assuming X12/13 and then grab the edit handle and pull it along the bank of cabinets. Please add you SIG. so we know what Version you are using as it matters for a lot of answers. If you are using a Home Designer Product you should be over on HomeTalk as those Products can't do what Interiors and Chief Premier can...... https://hometalk.chiefarchitect.com/ you might also want to fully avail yourself of the CA KnowledgeBase ( KB) or FAQ as it's called Elsewhere https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/database.html M.
  3. I typically don't use Live View in Layout as the PDF Size EXPLODES exponentially, a recent example was 22.3mb without and 52.7mb with , ( so it can't be emailed any longer) but you are correct , the Views in PDF do look nicer even STD View with Lines as in the example above looked nicer than in Layout. The above was some Preset Cameras for Client Views that could be opened 1 by 1 for Viewing but IMHO.... ASTRAL 3D and RTRT just ain't there yet. M.
  4. I'd try making my own back clipped View say 8" and a dedicated Layerset that doesn't show anything except the Wall Framing and perhaps a few other components eg Rim Joists as needed. And possibly Send View to a Cad Detail if needed. * great minds think alike M.
  5. IF it's X13 simply deleting the bottom Seperation , usually removes the bottom of the cabinet I find , I sometimes have to use "No Bottom" as well but that setting alone does not remove the Separation as Chief's Frameless Cabinets are not really Frameless they are just Auto 3/4" Framed cabinets. and a how to do your Sig. Vid. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/18908-signature-here-at-chief-talk/?tab=comments#comment-155662 M.
  6. au contraire Monsieur PS. could not agree more
  7. It was the XC Ultra that was On Sale but it looks as though you are right.....it is gone off the Restock Sale Page too. Newegg had the same price but is also sold out now.... M.
  8. Watch ya back the RED SMARTIES are being dropped again with free abandonment at the moment M.
  9. Molding Line does work , though I thought the Grout Lines would work out better with a molding line....
  10. You can likely use a Molding Line for this drawn in Plan View but I haven't tried it yet..... M.
  11. The View Opens "instantly" on the 3080Ti, but it is far from "Photo Realistic" as I think I have now seen in some of Chief advertising... * Still worth getting that 3070Ti Larry and only 1/2 the cost (now) of a 3080 Ti.... go on.... ya know ya wanta....
  12. Cleaner from a distance anyway......after 10,000 samples with the 3080Ti screaming for mercy for 7 mins or so ....bonus my Office is nice and warm now too..... But zoomed in not so much.......... Drywall has always been bad , from the start , perhaps we still don't have real PBR Materials in Chief ? I am not sure.... but am surprised the Cabinet Hardware is so "grainy"
  13. Yes that would work too, but I find it easier to get one side right , then just copy reflect each plane over the Ridge line and join them into the main roof. * for that particular one in the OP, 3 may work better since it is almost a Barrel with a little flare each side. M.
  14. Sorry was generating the Close-up above and didn't see your post ......haven't got as far as TS yet but suspect they will blame my lighting or the Sun intensity etc..... I think I have enough lights for the scene ---- all set to 300 lumen mind for subdued even lighting .... but still playing ..... so much for the Cabinet Company "Selling the Job" tomorrow at the Client Meeting.....
  15. And here's one for the Happy little down-voter here on the Forum , 2500 samples and not worth showing the Client...... thought I'd Zoom in to just to see if any better and no...... Mick.
  16. Chief even provides a Bonus Library with Appliance Handles for doing this
  17. you'd need 4 curved Roof Planes for this, two each side ( opposing curves) and then join them into the main house Roof plane ....make a V-Shaped break at the Eyebrow Ridge, the break each side of the V in 1/2 , to join each of the 2 planes too. Once one side is done you can use Copy>reflect to flip the planes over the ridge tot he other side. * Kevin's Video link is a good example actually.... M.
  18. It was rather prevalent yesterday unfortunately , I wish they would get rid of the whole stupid system..... Either that or make it so the likes and dislikes are seen at the bottom of the post WITH NAMES like on most Forums to stop this petty Clicking of the like/dislike button. Mick.
  19. I have 3 of these monitors predecessors (BL3200) and like them a lot too.... M.
  20. Yes that would of been Ideal, Astral still needs a lot of work and unfortunately Chief won't allow Plugins like D5Render either. Love your optimism Larry ! but I am not so sure it will. M.
  21. I think I have seen this in a Client's Plan before and She had accidently switched the Camera Type to Standard View for Wall Elevations instead of Vector View Camera View. Mick.
  22. That would depend........ if you have Current SSA then it is in your Digital Locker ( Free ) If it expired , I'd call Sales and see what they can do for you ............ otherwise online.......... https://www.chiefarchitect.com/products/upgrade.html *** Bad news is that it appears they are making X12 Users pay for a 2 year upgrade even though X14 has not Released yet.
  23. The problem is ALWAYS " we can't reproduce it ....So we can't fix it " and thanks for the Down Votes D. very good of you..... Mick.
  24. Are you using the latest vesrion of X13 , as CA reports fixing a number of Issues with Intel Cards in it in the PDF below.... mind you I have 3 or 4 issues named as fixed on the list still. PDF : chief-architect-x13-update-notes_23.4.0.123.pdf
