Thank you, David, It is amazing how far Chief has come, since I began using it (v6). My proficiency has increased along with it, so with the two, I'm happy with the capabilities. As Chief offers such a great opportunity to walk thru with clients, I have many times used "the rectangular polyline option", but it doesn't always work when there are 3 dimensional objects which I'm trying to hide for walkthru. With all the experience available on this forum, I just thought that maybe someone had run into this and discovered the solution. I think Ryan's idea regarding the manual manipulation culprit, might be very valid. I sincerely appreciate the many times I have called and had opportunity to pick the brain of the technical support crew. Thanks for your input! Cris

Thanks Ryan, I might try recreating the walls in question...yes there's been a little manual manipulation of the walls...that may have caused it. Thanks for your time.

Hi, Any Idea why this is happening? I'm not sure of a setting which controls this. Thanks! Cris

Thanks, Scott! It's given me the opportunity to become reacquainted with the codes. Also, nice to step back, from California, to a more reasonable version. I'll look into your suggestions, I really appreciate it. Cris

Howdy, The bulk of my career has been spent working in Northern California. (Residential) I have standardized Notes sheet, as well as notes for paste up on various different plan sheets. I recently relocated to Idaho, and have not had time to update these notes to suit my new state. If someone has notes which they use for this locale, which they'd be willing to share, or I'd happily purchase a copy. Please let me know. Thanks, Cris (208)-597-7321

Thanks, all. Gonna give this one a shot: KODAK IMOUSE Q40 Pretty simple and straight forward. Here's hoping.

Been using Logitech Trackman Trackball mouse for the last 20 years. I just wish that I could find this mouse without the cord.

Thanks Larry.

Many times, deck designs need newel posts which are mounted to the exterior face of the Rim joist. My details show this. I cannot create my deck plan this way though. I'd like the option to offset the entire rail system, not just the newels. This is, more often than not, the method which I use for my deck rails. I have suggested this in the past, but am unaware of any resolution. Has anyone come up with an easy work-around? Ideas? Thanks!

Howdy, I currently run ASUS ROG Strix Laptop, which I've had for a couple years now. Thinking it's time for a refresh. I have not had one issue with this machine. It has been awesome....but the graphics handler could use updating. I was looking at the most current version of what I have....it still looks great. I'd like to hear what others think, as this is my primary workhorse. I work from home/car/coffee shop....portability is a must, so I won't be going back to stationary system. Thoughts? Thanks!

I've enjoyed talking with, and getting to know those of you with whom I've had a chance to work. "Be excellent to each other!"

Oof! Thanks, Tom.

Heh...yep...I figured out a way to mount a table to the top of my camera tripod. Works great. People go, "Ooh!" too. Think I found something in magic plan for apple or android devices... Just downloaded it to give it a spin. Thanks!
