Agree with Larry, never had issues with x9 as I see many issues with x10.

Right-click on the file and select open with CAX10 and check mark always open with that file. When you installed X10 you probably missed specifying to associate the files with x10, if you didn't do that x9 still the default program associated with these file extensions. You can also set that up at this point in the default program settings by selecting the file extension and assigning a default program to handle that extension.

I don't know if Mike made you one yet, but here something I put together for you, see if that can work for the time being. Enjoy! Porta Romana Wall Sconce.calibz

Mick, Thanks! I think the issue is the crown is still there when you drop the light the crown blends with the ceiling color and if I zoom in close and move the light closer to the edge of the ceiling I can barely see the crown. 1st picture no light at all. 2nd Pic light dropped inside the room 3d picture light moved closer to the molding, you can see the crown but barely 4th Picture same as 3d, only molding color changed to Cherry. On some plans, you can see better, like the sample you posted. If I remove the lights from that plan and re-add them they will work fine, you can see the molding but not as good as you would like (profile wise, it gets to flat) I don't think it's my video card, I do have AMD and keep the drivers updated, and I use rendering in SketchUp much more powerful engines than in CA and I don't have any issues, especially with the bullseye effect, speaking of which, if you watch latest YouTube video they did on the Kitchen Design, she has the same bullseye effect.

Thanks, everyone. Got it working now, there is a new driver just came out a few days ago, I installed it and it did the trick. Now everything works as it should be. Thanks again!

Thanks Mark! I just found the issue.

Whats causing base cabinets display dashed lines in wall elevation when switching to NKBA annotation set. The upper cabinets look fine with the straight line?

Thanks, Mick, In the plan you posted recessed lights work fine. This must be a problem with my plan which is my template from X9 I guess I have to start making a new template. Thanks for posting that plan.

All all of them make the molding disapair, even if I put them in the middle of the room or shut them off the molding is gone. Same with cable track lighting, every other track light works fine and I tried all that changing the angle and everything nothing helpes It has to be a bug with the lights because if it was my pc it would affect other lights also-I guess

Thanks for looking into this guys. I have latest AMD driver and it has to be something with CA that causing this, never had this issue, and I'm using a more powerful renderer with SketchUp and with ambient occlusion turned on I never seen anything like it. I hope they figure this out, I will shut that thing off until they do. Thanks again!

That didn't help Graham, it seems that the only issue is with the recessed lighting, puck lighting (I put one on the ceiling), cable lighting, etc from the core catalog library, any other lights work fine.

If anyone is using space mouse navigator, do you experience this issue when you set space navigator mouse it works fine. If you close and restart the program you have to go back into space navigator mouse settings and uncheck>recheck any setting in it and it will work fine again. I guess the program is losing its ability to save the space mouse settings.

Thanks Graham! I will try that setting out.

Here you go, see if you can spot something. Thanks Plan1.plan

Also in standard camera view, you see the crown molding and when I dropped recessed lighting the crown disappeared and if I move the lights to the edge of the ceiling you can barely see it.

It was out of the box template, I just drew a few walls in it and used the camera.

Does anyone else who is having this issue, when deleting a cabinet in camera view it wants to close the entire plan? I guess it's doing that when you trying to delete anything in the plan view also. P.S Restarted the program and it stopped doing that.

Dave in Prefrences>Render you have to uncheck everything under Troubleshooting, that did the trick.

How to make this rings go away.?In x9 I don't have that. I have edge smoothing on . This one you can see the crown barely This one the crown goes away when I took ambient occlusion to 0

Around here we use Exterior Fire-X pressure impregnated fire-retardant lumber. Not sure about CA. I know they crazy down there.

It looks like you need a fire rated wall and soffit assembly, you cannot have windows on the side if it's 5' or less from the property line. When building on the same lot, they want an imaginary line between the 2 houses which is pretty much they want to see the Fire separation distance between the line and each building.

Right-click on the taskbar and select "automatically hide the taskbar" if that's selected and the taskbar is not hiding, right click on the desktop and click "refresh"

Thanks, Dave!!!

Anytime Ken, glad to be of help!
