Quick Question about Chief Premier Stair Tools
SteveCanbury replied to SteveCanbury's topic in General Q & A
Thank you @Joe_Carrick I've considered doing it like that, it would be nicer if the stair tool would allow angled risers though. -
I have a situation working for a mainly modular company (we do some stick built, but much more modular). My Problem is a Basement Stairway in a 12' Box configuration (I assume you understand what i mean by a 12' modular "box") Starting from the "Marriage" wall extending towards the Foundation Wall (ie. from the center of the house to the outside wall) These Stairs Cannot be built by traditional standards. And Yes, we do have SOME modular allowances, but not that much. I have decided to try Angled Risers (per IRC 2021 R311.7.5.1) "Risers shall be vertical or sloped from the underside of the nosing of the tread above at an angle not more than 30 degrees (0.51 rad) from the vertical." So my question is : Can Chief Premier do Angled Risers ? or will I be doing this in a 2d detail ? I am currently using HDP 2025 (which i know cannot do this), but will be upgrading to x18 within a week or 2, and just curious .....

If only I had that option in HDP 2025 .....

For context, My Boss prefers a Horizontal 2x4 Top Rail and a Vertical 2x4 Bottom Rail for our deck railings. The question is: When i export a material list for said deck, I get 2 seperate columns for what is essentially the same board type (ie. a column for 2x4 and a column for 4x2), Is this supposed to be normal ? Not quite understanding why a 2x4 is read differently whether it is Horizontal or Vertical ... It's still the same board. See DW3 and DW4 in the screenshot below

Maybe it's just me YMMV, I've always found it works better using 300 separate (slight exaggeration, but not really) Elevation Points vs using Regions or Lines. Gives a lot more flexibility, at the cost of taking forever and feeling like Prison Sex.

Sorted By User Rating, People seem to like the 5070 better. The Ti a little less, but still more than the 5080 https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-5070-vs-Nvidia-RTX-5080/4182vs4179 https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-5070-Ti-vs-Nvidia-RTX-5080/4181vs4179

don't forget (if you're gonna pay..) these also exist, and work quite well : https://mnml.ai https://www.archivinci.com/ https://notegpt.io/ https://www.krea.ai/app (sorry no example, but Rene Rabbit likes it, and probly has examples)

THIS was one of my steps, so most likely your solution

I changed a couple parameters, sorry I'm not sure which one fixed it. Maybe you can review the file and figure out what i changed. My Bad ... It's been a long day ... 865765995_AccessoryBuildings.plan

interior walls turned into exterior walls. Help!
SteveCanbury replied to Bradbo's topic in General Q & A
click on a wall that you wish to change > Open object (CTRL+E) > wall types > change to: Interior 4 do this for all effected walls check dimensions after -
If you can upload the .plan file it helps others diagnose your problem

Problem Solved I removed the black overlay and moved the Information Layer Chief User DWG.plan

Worked fine for me. BUT, I think what is going on, there are 2 drawings that are separated, I'm assuming they should be superimposed. If you scroll WAAAAY out you'll notice 1 part of the image (appears to be a neigborhood/ cul de sac) with no information on the top right corner. THEN to the bottom left is all your Compass and Elevation Data. As far as how to proceed from there, That is beyond my current level of Chief knowledge. Hope this helped you get a little further.
