  1. Yeah, so what, what the heck is wrong with my system...... Dawn the Time Warner lady said something about by passing my modem to get better speed..... I wonder if .... if..... if.... I wonder if somehow my decimal point is in the wrong location..... such a huge disparity between my system and everybody else's.
  2. Thanks Greg, I was going to wait a couple of days before I went through this. Did you watch the on line meeting yesterday morning 10:00 am pst? I watched, some awesome stuff...... it's like apple has just about finished putting all the different devices together seamlessly. I am excited about Yosemite. The new IMACs seem to be about 4 times faster? Did I understand this correctly? Holy Moly. I would be interested in knowing if CA has tested out the new IMAC to check out the speed difference..... I doubt they have checked out the new ones yet because I do not believe they ship until today or tomorrow.
  3. Texture and pattern are two different things. It is behaving as expected. You must now go into texture and change the aspect ration of the texture....
  4. I'm with Perry on this. I have given up with the arrows. I just don't get it. Not a super big problem, but if I am not careful, arrows move.... I don't like it. Quite frankly, I am not sure if I ever want the arrows to move, because when they do, the beginning of a 2 legged arrow does not stay parallel to bottom of page and it's all mucked up anyway. Someone needs to make these arrows easier to work with for us nit wits.
  5. My most recent internet speed after increasing my cable costs by 5.00/month. It seems like the download speed went from 3.1 to 7.5 or there abouts, and the upload speed went from 0.7 to 0.8. Still no where near what some of you guys have. Dawn the internet lady said something about having a router in the system, which I do, and this may effect the speed......... OF COURSE I HAVE TO HAVE A ROUTER BECAUSE I NEED A PC TO PRINT MY FLIPPIN PDF"S. If the only thing I have to complain about is my internet speed, then life ain't half bad.
  6. Yeah, I was thinking too simply. It would be great if the psolids etc. had the option to be tied to F.F, Terrain Elev. or 0.0 elevation. Yeah, I was thinking rectangles, not curved stuff.
  7. CC, here is your problem, and I had this problem until recently. DON'T BUILD THEM OUT OF PSOLIDS. Build them out of cabinets and cabinet partitions. Those items ARE tied to the F.F. of the house. Give it a try, you will be slapping the top of your head yelling, "and I could had a V-8!"
  8. I think you are doing something wrong... I guarantee you are doing something wrong. The FFH DOES NOT HAVE TO BE A SEA LEVEL. If you want, post a small plan with a terrain, a building at 10' above sea level, and put in two psolids, one in the house and one out of the house, open their two dvx and set the height at 48", if they are not 48" above the FFH and really 48" above sea level, post the plan and somebody will tell you what you are doing wrong.
  9. A door, many threads on this, many solutions, none perfect. I think the door solution is the best.
  10. Hi oldckd, (wish I had a name), anyway, for some reason I can't take a look at your material. Would you mind creating a small plan, put in some slabs, and paint the slabs with the material and post that. Thanks a ton, I am interested in what you did. I looked in my library and I did not see the material.
  11. michael, note the small letters, but thanks for the effort. I suppose if there is a solution, headquarters will let me know...... I think I will try 1-800-my-apple my-apple was no help..... I know CA is aware of this.... they say it is out of there hands.... I think they said it is in the hands of whoever set up their "tool kit" to do whatever...... still seeking a solution......... I think I will try Dear Abby......
  12. It seems to me there was a ready made tray divider symbol in a cabinet specialty library. I could be wrong.
  13. I just love to hear what Mumbles has to say, thanks Alan for the levity.
  14. And if I can say one more thing at the risk of having tomatoes thrown at me, I have learned more from solving newbies questions than I have learned from power users. It's just that it sometimes takes a little bit more of an effort to extract the information needed to actually learn something new. How about them Cowboys? And how about them Chargers...... I sure am glad I don't live in Alaska where they don't even have a team....... Or LA for that matter........ Sorry P.
  15. I agree with this 100%. Not only are we trying to help out the OP, we are also trying to learn something. Is it user error? Is it a bug? Is this an issue that we have never seen but a situation we can solve and learn from? While it is great you may have given the OP a place to start (BTW, he stated a non defined room was was not the case), I think we have all seen threads that go on and on, and since some of us monitor all posts, it becomes more of a burden for us. I don't know what the answer is...... maybe the answer is to simply ignore any posts that do not come with a plan....... and while this is a viable approach, it really helps no one. So I have decided to suffer through these posts that go on and on in the hopes that one day the world will be at peace, we will have no more wars, no more famine and no more questions without plans attached.
  16. Thanks michael, I will give it a shot tomorrow.... And if it works I will start capitalizing your name.
  17. Hey Tommy, is this how you deal with electric outlets on islands? I have never been able to figurateded it out.
  18. Everybody should give Tommy a POINT for this one.
  19. Interesting, Tommy says copy to user library first and then change the option to sit on floor and THEN you can put it in plan. This is a super duper secret handshake, thanks Tommy.
  20. Andy Gump, that might be Andy Grump..... hey Andy, I am Mister Grumpy, please don't tread on my territory........ but thanks Andy for the help.
