  1. Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has a good solution for creating wall decals. I managed to get a half decent result with creating a new material with an image than applying that material to a wall material region. But I'd like something that I can manipulate more easily and not have a background. I want to put a decal on my doors and can't figure out how I would do that. Here's some images of what I'm trying to achieve:
  2. Hello friends, I filleted the corners of a polyline and now these crosshairs appear. How do I get rid of them?
  3. Hi Friends, Is there a way to have a room label display the area instead of the dimensions?
  4. Hi Jason, thank you for the suggestions. That link doesn't work for me.... any suggestions?
  5. This is great! Can you provide any further information on how to do this?
  6. Hello friends, Does anyone know if there's a comparable feature in CA to a solar study in Revit? Thanks!
  7. Thanks for the suggestions Gene!
  8. Thanks! This makes sense. I'll try your approach
  9. Hi friends, I'm working on my first walkthrough and have two issues. One, the speed of the camera slows down when it turns then speeds up afterwards to catch up. All my cameras on the walkthrough are set to 1ft/sec. Two, the lights are flickering really badly. Here's a google link to the video. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w8EF8_if_1B0wXyIJ7atP8CqwwGNvnRt/view?usp=drive_link
  10. Thanks. I would like to learn how, that's why I'm asking
  11. Hello friends, Does anyone know if CA has a ledgestone that isn't just a picture on a flat surface? I want to get the real texture of stone. This is the exact stone I'd like to have in my renderings. Any advise on getting this looking realistic in CA?
  12. $90.30! Well that's not happening
  13. Hello friends, I was just watching a CA video on new features in X16 and saw these beautiful car models. I don't see these available on the CA website. Where can I get these?
  14. I found a solution! I turned off "use sunlight" and increased "nighttime ambient" in the "define" rendering technique option, which lightened the image and there's now no flare and the image is appropriately illuminated.
  15. Thank you for your suggestion Eric, I genuinely appreciate it. Unfortunately this option isn't ideal for me because I'm trying to keep the elevation to scale. I'm also trying to avoid additional steps of exporting and importing again if possible as I do tons of interior elevations and to do this with everyone that has a flare in it would be very time consuming.
  16. I checked the pot lights in the ceiling and they do say -90 but they're on a sloped ceiling so I'm not sure if it's the correct angel. I'm also realizing I didn't respond well before. The flare does alter or disappear with a sun adjustment, making it seem it is a sun issue, but when playing with all the adjustments, if I get rid of the flare, I have a very poorly lit elevation. Here's what I mean:
  17. Hi Robert, I did try adjusting the direction of the sun and all the sun settings, but nothing worked.
  18. Hello friends, Does anyone know how to get rid of this flare (light, solar...) in my elevations in standard view?
  19. Hi Michael, Thank you for your suggestion, however, I tried that and it didn't work.
  20. Hello friends, I'm working on small detail work, modeling this end table, and can't figure out the correct text or dimension setting to get these dimensions to an appropriate size - they're huge! Please help.
  21. Wow, there's so much great content here—thank you all! A special thanks to JiAngelo for your detailed suggestions. You've introduced me to a lot of new ideas, and I’m excited to start exploring them. I really appreciate the time and expertise you've shared to help with this challenge.
