Never ever ever have I experienced that at a mac store, and I go there several times a year. In regards to phone support, I can't believe how good it is.... at no charge....... their customer service I think is probably second to none..... sorry you had a bad experience. The customer service is another huge reason I stay with mac.

Good suggestions, however I will go a step further and recommend a roof plane in lieu of landing (that way you get the framing).

My slow down occurs when I am toggling between sheets in LAYOUT. If I go from a sheet with a floor plan to a sheet with a framing plan, no worries, but when I move on to a sheet with elevations or sections, it always takes about 10-15 seconds for that sheet to show.

Hi Mark, as usual, I am late to the party..... I just bought BLUEBEAM, it looks like a great PDF viewer...... I assume you like it a bunch...... do you have any issues with it or would you say that it is the best you have seen to date?

You might consider learning how to use ref sets and how you can control what layers are on and off for a particular ref set.

CA is aware of the problem, and they are working on it.

NO

Thanks Chop, I cannot go back to X7..... I have moved on, but thanks for heads up, I will report to the muckity mucks.

I am wrong again, thanks Glenn..... I misread your initial post and I did not verify....

sEe pic, if I take a camera view, I get a default white background, I want no background at all. It seems to me that there is now a setting that will only give us the building, and any area around building is "transparent" Does anybody remember how to do this? I am trying to create a building camera view on top of the actual picture without using PS.

Xterix, I think you are about 35 days late.

That is so true. So I would recommend 2 key hot keys. Change the delete to a EE hot key. Easy Peasy.

Very good comments. I too have used both. MAC is simpler and syncs with other devices, but PÇ works great too.

BTW, the first official game was played in a giant teepee in South Dakota. It was the Sioux from S Dakota vs the Aboriginess from Sydney, and the Sioux won by a score of 56 to many. When I visited Australia several years ago, I learned something very interesting, the Aboriginees had a very limited understanding of math. They understood the numbers one and two, Anything higher than two was called many. What a great trip that was and what a great group of people down there. The Aussies and the Kiwis will forever be my favorite peoples.

A quick follow up on this. I appreciate all of the comments. I have not had time to fully research all of the options, however my Buddy has taken the time to review many different options, and he is very excited about BLUE BEAM. I think I will be downloading BLUE BEAM today and he and I will be working with it in the morning. If you guys have any other comments, they will be welcome. After we have worked with it a bit, I hope I will give you more info on what we have found.

Because you are using 2 different roof pitches? It's just a guess.

Okay, I get it, Naismith was a Canadian, but he moved to Massachuteses, became an American citizen and then invented basketball.

I think we have an argument going on here.... check this out... I think you Canadiens are always taking credit for what we do.

Yep, we invented that too .......

Oh, we also invented golf and rythmic gymnastics.

Uh? A Canadian sport? Have you been hit in the head by a hockey puck too many times? BB is an all American sport. The Americans invented football, soccer, basketball, baseball, girl's softball, hockey, handball, beach volleyball, badminton, curling, Rugby, Rugby sevens, Tai Kwan Doe and mai jong. The only thing we did not invent is Jai Alai.

Yep, I think foxit is a definite option, my client and I are still searching.....

I use GOTOMEETING, serves two purposes, recordings and on line meetings

Thanks Ray....... I wonder if anybody can explain why the model built as it did due to the fact that room was called a BALCONEY. IOW, what behaviors are expected if a room is called a BALCONY instead of a LIVING ROOM. I do not expect a logical answer.
