This is one of the reasons I don't post most of my macros. AI will violate my copyright without my permission. I suspect it's also capable of getting data from emails and/or text - but in any event, these forums are not safe from AI.

Anyone interested in my HP Designjet T120 can have it for just $150.00 It was used for only about 125 24"x36" sheets. I just don't need it any more and will be moving in a few months. You will just need to pick it up at my home in San Marcos (North San Diego County)

I believe there are 2 different downloads, 1 for laptops & 1 for desktops. May also be different for 4060 & 4070. Are you sure you got the right one for each machine?

IMO it would be a good idea for Chief to provide this with their Pro version to users. A lot of speed issues and complaints could be avoided.

I just installed the trial version from SoftPerfect. I can confirm it's really fast. I'm not using Chief's Project Mode but loading a large Layout and Plan is about 5 times faster. Library searches are also pretty fast. I'll definetly be purchasing a license.

I downloaded the Studio version for my Geforce RTX 4060 and it's working perfectly.

The definition of a "Mulled Unit". https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-window-mulling.htm?msockid=27e915c4e5f4699818490258e4336886 I realize that in Chief it's possible to do it the way you are but I prefer to do it the way it will be framed and built as separate windows.. Sometimes a combination of SideLite(s) and a Door will be provided as a single "Mulled Unit" by a manufacturer. It will be installed within a single rough opening in a wall.

Hi Steve, "Mulled Windows" should only be used if they are going to be provided by the manufacturer as a single object to be installed in one rough opening. What you show in your pic would be six single windows (aligned but not mulled)

If for buy list it shoud be rounded up to the nearest 2 feet - easy to do

%length.to_ft.ceil%' but you really should tell them what size & type members: I-Joists - size and # Lumber - nominal size, material, pressure treated Steel Channels etc That's all automatic with my macros. It even indicates if they need to be "PT" (pressure treated).

Don't remember exactly. Call tech support - they can walk you thru it.

So just 11'-7 1/2" I can add another macro at no additional cost to you. What do you want as the lowest denominator?

Something like this? 2-1/2" x 11-1/4" x 20'-6-1/8" [TJI-230] Floor Joist for lumber the values would be nominal Framing Label macro package price $75.00

That's exactly what I've done. I sell my system for $125. It's guaranteed to work for all 1,2 & 3 section stairs, landings & ramps. It even works on spiral stairs.

I do section views but only dimension the head room when it might be an issue. I'm in California so the building departments are very picky. MY stair info text is accepted for rise, run, width, railings, etc. I haven't had a plan check correction related to stairs, landings or ramps for at least 10 years.
