X13 Issue with Wall Type Definitions Box
Joe_Carrick replied to amddrafting's topic in General Q & A
The size is adjustable in both directions. The size is only limited to smallest in both directions. I don't think there's a limit to the maximum size - other than available screen area. AFAIK, the above is true for all dialogs. There's a minimum size that any of the tabs require without anything being chopped or needing a slider. IOW, if there's a tab that needs the space to display everything then that is the minimum size for the dialog. -
I generally use Nuance PDF and don't have any problems. Sometimes I use Chief Architect print to PDF In any event, I set the resolution to 300 dpi vs 600 dpi which drastically reduces the file size. I don't see much differences in the PDF clarity.

I'm afraid I'd be using a couple of online translation programs more often than not. french to english english to french I'm afraid David's advise is best. You'll get more responses and assistance in English. -

Translation - if I remember my high school french: Hi Gilles, I'm in Ordford! (Quebec I assume) I work with X12. I'd be pleased to share with you in the future. Danielle -

There are 2 ways to handle this after downloading: Open your downloads folder and select "Open With" > Chief Architect X12 In Chief Architect X12 select "File>Import Library" browse to the downloaded file.

I have the same observation. Maybe you should try redefining your wall types in X13.

I suspect that the "new" plan is using the new template definition - but the older plan is using the prior template. If both templates are the same then it probably doesn't matter. However, if anything was changed - which I think would be the case - then you might want to use the new plan. Since the programmers don't know which we might want ......

Also, you can avoid fractions altogether by setting the Primary Format to 1/1 for the fractions. This will make everything full inches. I tend to do this just to make things simpler for the framers, etc. For some things (large scale defaults) that's not appropriate - but I like it for general plan, elevations & sections.

I just use a "Mask" with a semi transparent fill. It's not perfect but it works for me.

HI Rene, I've experimented with both fonts. Is it possible to make the Arial Narrow use a wider "space" (maybe a double space)? I really don't know much about custom font capabilities. It would look a little better to have a wider space between the feet and inches.

Thanks Rene

He has a custom font that redefines the space to a dash, and the dash to a space. It would be nice if he'd share that font. But I would personally like a modified "Arial" font.

Use a Rich Text Box - just one so you can change the text size.

cabinet waterfall edge..... where is it controlled
Joe_Carrick replied to dshall's topic in General Q & A
Answering your own question? Are you going to give yourself a "SOLVED" ??? -
There shouldn't be any problems. I have several projects from up to 5 versions back. Whenever I need to do additional work on one of those I just open it in the latest version, save it to my new version project folder and use that going forward.

The attached macro will need to be downloaded and installed. For some reason the macro isn't being included in the calibz file. roof_pitch.json -

Nvidia GTX 1070 and Realtime Raytracing in X13
Joe_Carrick replied to amddrafting's topic in General Q & A
Well, I'm sure glad I only purchased a new computer with just an RTX 2060. It's working great and I haven't seen any of those problems. -
Check in your digital locker.

What's the difference between HDMI & DisplayPort? My new RTX Card has 1 HDMI and 3 DisplayPort connections. The computer also has an additional HDMI connection. I will probably get 3 DisplayPort cables but currently I'm planning on using 2 HDMI cables and connecting just my 4K TV to the RTX card. What's the downside? Eventually I will add a 3rd monitor so I will have to use the DisplayPorts.

For Polylines I would really like to have 2 separate labels. This would be particularly useful for displaying x-size and y-size. But then those attributes would need to be available. I'm really thinking about "Intelligent Roof Pitch Polylines". Similar to those I posted in the "Content and Symbols" forum --- but even better.

You would need to set it in the NVidia Control Panel & the Graphics Display Settings
