Hi Guys, Ever since I upgraded to X13 the temp dimension that appeared at the bottom of the screen when I draw a wall does not show.

Can anyone help?

Thanks PJ

Hi guys I have a dwelling with part concrete floor with the remainder being timber poles as the site has an 18 degree slope. I have built the masonry ring foundation for the garage etc, but cant seem to find a video on building pile foundations. Thanks, PJ

Thanks David

Does  X9 have PL1 files and where would it be located?

Excellent worked a treat. Many thanks.

Help please. When I click on the library icon the active tick comes on but it has just disappeared. I have tried   minimising the page to no avial.

You can download the Chief X8 Viewer from the Chief website.

This will open the old plans and save them in the new .plan and .layout formats.

From memory, it will do multi-floors in one go  - ie, open one floor and Chief will also open the other floors automatically and save all the associated floors into the new .plan file.

Thanks guys, appreciated

I have recieved a chief plan file from a retired Designer ( version 9 ) he thinks. Has has come with the files separated, ie.  PLO, PL1, P12 PB1 , PB2, etc.

Is there any way to conbine these under one file  so that I can open it in X9.

Thanks, PJ
