A well earned nick name.... he can tell you the story if he wants.

Here is a vid Annik, it will not win any Academy Awards and is probably very painful to watch, but you may get something out of it. I sort of did it for me to see if I could get something out of it. http://youtu.be/P2iMQeIBEBQ

That is interesting that you see the same slow down that Mumbles sees, I did not see it in this particular case on my MAC. This should be good feedback for Brian, Alan, I hope you send your plan into Brian, thanks.

So yesterday afternoon I went a bit nuts and gave out a bunch of "kudos", and then reached my maximum limit for the day. This morning I try to give ArthurDent a "kudo" and I can't do it because I reached my limit from yesterday. Point is, I suppose you can only give out a limited number of "kudos" in a 24 hour span versus one day to the next. Hey CA, I know you guys are busy with this STAIR IMPROVEMENT PLAN, but would you mind looking into modifying the number of "kudos" in a 24 hours span, thank you.

Arthur, you answered his question in less than 5 minutes..... what took you so long?

Ditto.............

...... I am not sure if this is related to the Non Darwinistic Laws of Natural Selection or not....... I will do some research and get back to you...... but no delay on my end. However I am not surprised you had a delay..... my delays are random..... sometimes there is a long lag editing and sometimes not..... and in the same plan..... have not figured out what is triggering the delays. EDIT: my deletion of column was not instantaneous, maybe 1/10 second.... almost imperceptible delay, but a delay.

Make it invisible and it won't show or connect four of those and it will disappear.

I wonder if it would work if you painted the glass panels in a wood material.

You maybe correct, it just looks like he might of done something more "magical". It looks really good.... of course it is a RENDER VIEW, a VECTOR VIEW may show us what he really did. Hey Rich, where the heck are you Bud, help me out here, am I missing something "magical" that you and Antoine have come up with?

Control it via the ceiling height

Yeah, I had a feeling there was an issue with that. I still do not know how he did what he did.

I would take Glenn's approach, but I am sure both approaches would work.

Uh oh, how Rich?

I bet you should get glass doors from library.

I sent my plan into Brian, and he could not see the slowdown. Is he recognizing the slow down in your plans..... question directed at all of you.

I believe I experience a slow down when I have been working on the plan awhile. I do not believe it is tied to the size of the file as much as the time spent working on a particular file. I am still monitoring to feel more confident in my assertion.

Bill, this sounds interesting. Is this worth a workshop and would you be interested in taking the lead?It seems to me a while back I learned how we can import existing model of existing buildings into our own plan.

My new method: Joe' s treads Glenn's spiral tool for handrail My round pole (the most difficult operation) And Yusuf's blessing Turn into symbol, easy peasy

I always print to pdf.... therefore I have a record of everything I print.

Yeah, that is what I thought. The point being, the tread and the tread base are two different items. I would prefer them to be one in the same. One is not dependent on the other. Not a big deal, merely a comment.

Why make the tread out of a countertop? Let's think about this. If you look at Greg's picture, we can see a black base for the tread with a wood top. What is the black? Is that the countertop? No.. So Greg, I get the fact that the countertop is a wood grain material, but what is the black?

Who is Brian? Are you kidding? You do not know the Great Brian Beck.... one of the programmers of this program, the overseer of all things messed up, the guru of all gurus......... he is a guy who sits in a little cubicle fixing things that are messed up...... darn, I am not sure what email you should use, if interested in reporting issues, please call CA and they will probably give you the email to report issues to.

I think you guys should send these plans in to Brian so he can fix this. It is hard for him to find the problem if he does not have something to work with. Your time spent will benefit you in the future.

Wait, Wait just one darn second, first of all Yusuf, you have to throw some Ethiopian jokes into your presentation to spice things up, and speak a little louder, other than that, another great informative video by Yusuf. Nice job, I have to double check but that again was quite clever. What Yusuf did other than create a SMOOTH HANDRAIL was at the same time he created a handrail visible in plan view. We have been asking CA for this for years and Yusuf did in no time. Nice job Yusuf. I have to double check but I think Yusuf left the handrails on the stairs and then he put a wall on the stairs and defined it as a railing. I thought you either could have the stairs with railings or a will defined as a railing on stairs BUT NOT BOTH.
