Why keep them, once I move to the next version, I don't think I have ever gone back to an older version.

Steve, I think you are on the right path. A unique layer set, anno set and ref set for each PLAN VIEW. Absolutely, I think you are on the right track.

no problems here with high sierra

I use chief pdf

I thought this was interesting.... the different sizes of the last 5 versions...... I think I might toss out x6-x8

I use a fixed glass window with screen material for the vent. I put it on the foundation level.

I think so

Mick, I might be wrong, it may not of been 1953, I know it wasn't '49, Perry is getting old, I think Lew posted a time line a few years ago on the release dates, I started in November '05 with Perry and X-10, X-12 may of been '08, if that was the case, then I took the test in '09 at the UGM, yep, that was it, '09, my first UGM meeting. In '11 I attended my second UGM, I was in Prague that year when they released X-13 and I remember doing a GTM in a little bar in Prague, or Krakow or Budapest, whatever city I was in..... I didn't win too many points with Lynn on that trip.

I have thought of using color, I am sure as soon as printing in color is cheaper we will all use color.

I think a lot of people used these things in their signatures back in the day. I don't see them too much anymore.

Ain't that a pistol, I earned the X-2 certification back in 1953, they finally sent me the certification.

I took it many years ago. I think I barely passed. It is a great tool to learn what my weaknesses were.

Post a small plan with the walls and what you are trying to do, somebody will help.

ditto, it happened 30 minutes ago.

I just noticed that OBO walls are now gray scale fills and not a color. When did the earth's axis change?

That is nice Mark. I am assuming just the two lights and no additional work.

I stopped doing RT's years ago when the renderings got good. I want speed, not quality. I like WC's but they are too slow. I do about 20 or 30 renderings each time for my clients. I did a couple of renderings and PBR's attached, the PBR's in this case ain't half bad. I did no touchup. I shot and went, slammed and jammed, picked and clicked.... I do need to work on what is outside the windows.....

Graham, this is a great thread you started. I would like to learn some stuff here. I have played with PBR very very little..... I take a shot and do nothing more.... results not worth using. The questions is..... does it take a lot of fiddling around with settings to get a reasonable view?

I sent it in.

Pardon me, isn't this plain flat out stupid...... so how much time do I need to spend to get the answer...... just stupid, thanks Graham. I guess I will report this. I can't believe this behavior has not been posted before and just not fixed..... what a waste of time...... To make mine work, I had to use this shape .......

Thanks for bringing this up. See my conundrum below. molding does not work 1.plan

Joe, this is what they want to do. add new house to a lot that has an existing house (zoned RM-1-1.) There is no more than 3500 s.f. of floor area on the ground floor. It is a sprinklered building. If I go back to my apartment designing days, I think the floor area here is small enough that a 2-hour separation is not required.

Maybe she hinted at the answer here. oops, that is wrong, it is closer that 2'..... I think Richard has the answer.

Yeah, I am going to call the plan reviewer soon. I wanted some ammo when I called her. I also wanted to catch her after lunch when she would be more helpful after a nice meal.
