    How about a logo?

     

    She still looks fantastic, I however...well.....

     

    BTW. We have never visited Idaho and are thinking of coming to the UG meeting this year. Do other spouses come along?

     

    Lynn is coming with me this year.

     

    She retired on December 23rd, got a labradoodle on December 24th,  I am now her 3rd priority after the grandkids and the dog.

     

    It would be great to meet up with you Joey.  I hope you and you wife show up.

     

    EDIT:  Again I screwed up by opening my mouth.  Joey,  please go back to the pic of you and your wife....  it really is a nice pic.

    Did you guys try locking the toolbars once they are to your liking.

     

    Brian has said it is a dual monitor glitch with the apple products. I typically listen to Brian.

    A quick comment.  Joey Martin and his Wife make a GREAT LOOKING COUPLE!  

     

    BTW,  Joey,  you have not changed your picture in 17 years,  are you guys still that great looking?  What is your secret?  

     

    I have tried exercising,  eating better,  getting more sleep....  it ain't helping me.  I think I might start using a photo from the past century.....  like around 1995....  that is when I met my wife......  at least half of us was good looking back then.    Jeez,  was it really that long ago?

    I have been running X12 and never have an issue with the tool bars hot keys or screen display. When I run X13 it starts out ok but eventually I lose my toolbar and even have trouble moving say the Active Layer Display from the right to the left on my screen. I have an iMac and it is up to date on software. I have to get out of Chief X13 and reboot and start again but eventually I will be doing this again to gain control.

    All I gotta say is mine is bigger than cool hand luke's

    .....

     

    Is there any special "lot perimeter" designation I can/should use to designate the 2 lots, while drawing a larger terrain perimeter around the whole thing to include the 2 roads?

    .....

    I am not sure what the mystery is.  Draw a terrain that is bigger than the two lots so when you do a overview,  you see the two roads and the two lots plus they lots next door.

     

    If you want to then show the perimeter of each property line,  copy the property line  and turn it into a terrain curb and paint it red.

     

    Here I am showing the setback line but you can to the same with the P.L.

  6. ".....   Today the common customer runs across super high quality renders and CGI all the time so they have no clue how difficult it is to produce great quality renders.  ......"

     

    So true ,  so true.

     

    Back in the day,  we rarely provided 3d renderings (too expensive, 400.00/render minimum back in the early '80's).  For the last 16 years I have been providing 3d presentations, "'crappy RT's" in the beginning and now standard 3d's with lines on top....  and they are awesome,  until compared to the great quality renders that take too much of my time getting the lighting and materials just perfect.

     

    Yep,  it a whole new ball game.  It would be super to get OOB high quality renders.

    For this reason I do not have custom tool bars....  eventually they will get broken and I would need to reset toolbars,  not worth the aggravation.

  8. Hi Michael,  (num4,num4) is the hot key to export the pic.

     

    (for whatever reason,  I have never had much luck with the knowledge base button)

     

    I never had this issue with the old Mac,  I wonder if there is a setting somewhere that defines the number of pixels for the reported pic?
