I doubt it. Look a little closer and see what folder they're located in. Like I said... "You can find many/most of the same colors in both the Canada folder and in the United States folder." 

For the record, you don't actually have to trim anything. If you want to keep the extra geometry for future use or for display in other details, you can place your "frame" onto a unique layer. Switch to a unique "Layout Frame Layer Set" where only that single layer is turned on and send that view to layout. Then, when in layout, change the Layer Set using the Layout Box Layers tool. Your layout box should be perfectly sized and positioned relative to your CAD Detail.

Just a quick Power Tip here... If you're trying to save old plan iterations but keep the layout linked to the current version, I would skip the re-linking process until absolutely necessary. Just print each layout version to PDF for future reference. When moving to a new plan iteration, Save As to give the plan a new name ("Smith Residence Prelim 1" for example) but keep the current version using its original name ("Smith Residence Main" for example). This way your current layout never needs re-linking. When you hit a fork in the road like this, it can be as simple as clicking Save-As, renaming the original right in File Explorer, and then clicking Cancel. Now when you click Save next time, your original version remains unchanged, and your current version is still linked to your main layout. You can always do the relink to a new layout thing at any time, but I find it much easier to use a Current or Main plan version and avoid relinking unless it's absolutely necessary.

I made one for another user a little while back. It's a very specific size and spacing, but maybe you can use it. Paint it whatever color you like using "Blend", or take the normal map and use that with any color you like. I can also make you a custom texture if necessary. You can have this one though...

Several library objects are contained in multiple folders. Take the Benjamin Moore colors in your examples. You can find many/most of the same colors in both the Canada folder and in the United States folder. Same thing holds true for some Core Catalog items as well. For example, you can find Blue Corrugated Metal under both Sheet Metal>Corrugated and Siding & Paneling>Metal>Corrugated.

The problem with this method is that it uses the bounding box of the polyline and not a specific edge.

There's another tool you guys can be using as well... The angular dimension tool. This will allow you to reference 2 specific edges and move as many objects as you like.

Not sure what you mean, but if you select multiple polylines and try to Make Parallel/Perpendicular, you won't get the option they will automatically Rotate Entire Polyline because there is no Selected Edge to work with.

Double click on the Make Parallel/Perpendicular tool (or just click it a second time).

Whaddya know. Yes. It looks like my microphone was muted. I just slapped that together really quick and didn't actually watch it. My apologies. Watch the areas I point out with my mouse though and I think you'll get the idea. Maybe I'll remake later if I have time.

There's actually another way and it's something you may find handy for other problematic move/rotate/center operations as well... Marquee or Group select the object and then try your operation.

Just a guess, but it may be that your video card was inadvertently disconnected during the process or that something was damaged. Go to Edit>Preferences>Video Card Status and see what video card Chief is showing there.

I can't speak for anyone else's "reflectivity controversy" but this definitely isn't this case with regard to the issue's I have ever referred to. Here's just a really quick demonstration... ...now having pointed that out, I have definitely witnessed cases where the reflectivity issues are DEFINITELY related to what should happen as you have stated.

You just have to make your own Custom Fields and associated Schedule Columns. Send me a private message if you need help setting something up.

I don't understand what the problem is. As Eric demonstrated above, its very easy to get Chief to return the desired maximum lengths.

How bout you try the new Trey Ceiling tool?

Good. Might not hurt to send them a link to my video as well. It might save them a little troubleshooting time. P.S. I dropped a fixed post into the plan for you. I just used a very small solid to fill in that little criss-crossey no-man's-land corner that I pointed out in the video... Post to tech support (modified).plan

An example would be good. It really depends on your exact scenario. It may require custom roof planes, it may be doable with auto roofs, and it may even be doable with auto roof returns. Depends on the specifics.

Here's the problem for what its worth... Note that it wasn't likely a problem in X11 because in X11 Chief wasn't treating solids as a group of editable faces like they are now.

Yup. This is not good. You did report it right? I use solids pretty extensively for stuff like this too, but I haven't used them a whole ton in X12 yet. I have also noticed a few other oddities with regard to rotating behaviors and have reported those, but this is a new one to me. Glad you caught it. I actually messed around with it for quite a while and I think I figured out the problem too.

Absolutely, yes.

Don't give up on using symbols too quickly. It can be a lot more efficient than you might think... Fluted Panel Block.calibz

Oh, I see now, it's like a fluted panel.

What is that actually made out of?
