  1. I usually just copy the material definition to my user catalog and rotate it to where i want in the Texture panel of the material.... There may be a more straight forward way to accomplish this. I am interested in what others have to say.
  2. If i remember right, I pulled the lower roof in more... Like the wall was setting on top of it. Then open the wall dbx and go to roof panel and select roof cuts wall at bottom. This will change the wall directive..... Then on the side where the wall makes a corner (in your attachments its the pic showing the missing cladding.) I just pulled then taller wall all the way to the right making that one wall and not two and that fixed the corner. A lot of these special situations are doable via trial and error. I hope this helps.
  3. Out of curiosity are you using actual material for the screen? Or is it a pattern?
  4. 1057885320_36_deanwood_circle-MOSTCURRENT_auto_save_bak-2.planHere you go. See if this is what you were trying to accomplish.
  5. For some reason I can't open the file. No error or anything, just asked do I want to import and import say "no". After that nothing happens.
  6. I got a new computer and need to all resources (library and managed plans) to the new computer. What is the most efficient way to do that? "Backup" on old and "Restore" to new? Thanks
  7. I have heard about AIBD and would be interested in knowing more about how it could help me and my business.
  8. not sure if Chief can natively do what you are wanting but you can build your on tick block with the extensions. Just draw what you want, make a block of it and add to your library. Then in dim defaults pick your new tick mark from the library. Doesn't take long.
  9. Looks like the roof you circled in hello is at a 45 degree angle. Because of the complex angles created by the shed having been added I would draw the roof without the shed roof first and then add the shed roof on top and then adjust from there, if that makes sense.
  10. Open the dbx of the stair and try selecting a closed stringer on the "Stringers" panel to see if that's the look you are trying to accomplish.
  11. Usually I delete all exterior dimensions when I turn on Auto Refresh dimensions. When Auto Refresh is on the dimensions update constantly. BUT this will not affect any manually added dimensions.... So if you use the Auto Dimension tool that will add static dimensions and not Auto Refresh if that makes sense. What are you trying to accomplish with this comment "How do I turn off the layer?"
  12. I will give that a spin. Thanks.
  13. This! Or you can just window the single object instead of using shift.
