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.

Hi, I'm working as designer for California based company, and am in need of capable Chief user to complete my approved concept drawings. All, or mostly all single family residential projects. Wood Frame construction. I have standard template for my jobs, and the process is pretty simple and straightforward for someone familiar with Chief. Please reply to cjones@intempus.net Regards, Cris Cris Jones VP of Design Services Intempus Builders cjones@intempus.net P: (408) 320-5509 | C: (707) 367-1987 | F: (408) 907-8934 20640 3rd St. | Suite 300 | Saratoga, CA 95070

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!

Hi, I'm working more remotely these days, and have had some guys help in gathering dimensions and property information. While I've become practiced in sketching out the layout of a typical 2000sf house, I guess it does take a little practice. Trying to make this process simpler, I'm looking to see whether anyone could suggest easy, straightforward software which will run on a tablet or i-pad, with which someone could easily draw walls, add windows and doors, pull dimensions....doesn't have to be fancy, just able to record accurate dimensions....thinking via touchscreen would be best.... Suggestions which don't require much of a learning curve? Thanks!

Hi, Has anyone had difficulty with Elevation view not showing various framing members? I've had this difficulty now, across multiple plans. Framing members visible in Camera view are not visible in Elevation View. Yes, I do have the framing members selected to display in Elevation. ;) Thanks! Cris

Thx Mark. I'll take a look.

Yeah. Thanks for the reply.

...also, sorry I started this thread in the wrong forum....I'll do better next time.

I need a workable scheduling app specific to my business paradigm. I pretty much know all the steps which will be involved with whatever job. I'd like an app which will allow me to define the various fields, then allow me to fill the estimated number of hours for each, being able to schedule each specific task individually, then have that tie into calendar which will morph in real time as things progress/change....I need it to extend my schedule, say if I run a week early or a week late on any given task, so I've got a constantly up-to-date scheduling app. I ask you, because you know my pain. Ideas? I've tried to create spreadsheet to handle this, but not sure how to do what I want with tying it in with a fluid calendar....ideas? Thanks!

I'm currently scheduling out about 4 months. Got about 15 active jobs. Trying to keep it all in my head is taking a toll. Straightforward scheduling software, for design projects? Sure I can't be the only one. Thanks!

Thank you.

Yeah, But because it's a feature of the program, I'd rather not have to build it myself. That's an idea though. Thanks!
