  1. Once done you can move the individual lines (row) up and down with it's grip handle and organize them by Room for example. (Making the Room Column , the 1st Column may also achieve this , as it should sort alphabetically then instead) M.
  2. Try making them .25" or .5" radius , then they are barely visible....they are usually 4" by Default. M.
  3. That is what I did above.......and you can see the Brick building upto the Soffit only. I am not sure why you have 1mm plaster on the 99mm block or for your Ceilings though ..... Mick.
  4. At least in this part of the world you have some strange wall definitions and roof baselines build directly off the outside of the main layer , but after a few changes and building the Roof with the Trusses Check Box on it seem to work ok? but I would still contact Tech. Support. Mick
  5. I haven't looked into it but the Baseline should generate at the VSD Height based on the Pitch and the Rafter Size , and the Wall Pitch ( RWD) should override any Default settings in the Build Roof DBX. Unless something got messed up in X13 and only just came to light . MY VSD CHART :
  6. Talk to @Chiefer ( Jintu ) he is a long time Chief Forum User and does Rendering only , his Website is Here : http://www.jintudesigns.com/bathroom-kitchen-renderings.html
  7. Instead of a Fixed Window you can use a Pass Through instead and as it is a type of window you can also get it to corner join and turn off the Corner post , and then use a Single Panel Sliding Door Symbol which is easy to Transform the require number of copies along the wall while offsetting them their own thickness as well. You can either then block them together if needed or leave as single Units, so you can slide them open or closed as needed.... Here is the Plan File to play with..... Corner Sliders from Pass-through.plan Mick.
  8. This is my experience with the Auto Bay/Box as well..... Mick
  9. Your Images aren't showing Joey..... M.
  10. And on a fixed price contract = good enough is good enough However I like to think Clients are/will be long-term and try thinking beyond the immediate future...... I am surprised more don't these days especially when 5-10yr Warranties are mandatory in many places now... M.
  11. Course you do you are the Architect , and if it's on the Plans it should be on the job...... No doubt Fascia mounted costs a bit more but long term there are no issues and you can gain 3-4" more space in the Deck too M.
  12. Okay that explains it , I don't allow Railings to be installed ON the Vinyl Membrane at all , seen way too many leak issues over the years. I typically always Fascia Mount Railings these days whether Wood or aluminium. Mick.
  13. Not necessarily , but may depend on what you need to show and in what view . As you already Noted windows will join on Corners..... so Configure a Fixed Window to look like a Sliding Door , ie Floor to 8' (?), no frame, casing or sill, and setting the Sashes to the needed Sizes. You can then show it with or without a corner post...... Mick.
  14. I am curious why you'd want the Railings sloped and not level in this situation? personally I wouldn't build it that way ITRW..... M.
  15. you can also use a Polyline Solid drawn in Elevation , though normally I'd think that deck would have a waterproof membrane on it not Planks. M.
  16. It maybe one of these two settings causing it, read up on them --- I have not looked at the plans...
  17. I am curious as to the Reason of why use 3D Views rather than Standard Elevation Views in this particular case? M.
  18. I believe David Potter is still supporting X5 ........ https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/profile/81-davidjpotter/ @DavidJPotter
  19. Hi Bill , best to provide the Plan or at least a Test sample plan with the same condition , so people and try and figure things out for you. Mick.
  20. No, just a railing with the Follow Stairs checkbox marked..... ....draw the curved part straight and then use the ARC Tool to curve it, once done. here is your plan back..... SchC3forrailing.plan
  21. Windows 11 requires ,TPM or SecureBoot to be enabled in the Bios , a quick google should find you plenty of info. Not sure I am in any rush either at this point........ at least not on my Main (Drawing) Computer. M.
  22. I think you have found a bug as the Ramp posts Auto turn into 1/2 posts and don't join properly to the Landing Railings which makes them look like one is exploding out the other. However if you Turn the auto Railings off the Ramps and Landing and draw your own it works okay ...though Chief has never joined Round Rails that well to Round Newels.....
  23. I haven't tried it in X13 but in previous versions this brought Chief to it's knees due to the face count..... M.
  24. I have used this method before as well , few quirks but works okay. Mick.
  25. Sorry you are right , I didn't expand my library out to full view and assumed I was in the Bonus Specialty Storage library.... Chief has updated a few Libraries again this week including Blum again , so run an update ..... M.
