Curious, have you tried removal and reinstall? It could be possible that the installation became corrupted, look for a repair?

I took the plunge and purchased both ChiefExpert and a Logitech MX Master 4 wireless mouse. Pleased with the purchase of both!

All, I'm in search of what works best for the everyday workflow. Current setup: MacBook Pro M3 Pro chip w/ 36GB integrated ram, 1 TB ssd. CA x17 Premier on MacOS Tahoe 26.3 Apple Magic Mouse I would like current details as to what your using for pointer, and trackpad, if any aids. There seems to be a great deal of appreciation for 3D Connexion and Logitech. What do you like? Why? What works? Are there any resource(s) / app(s) outside of CA that you incorporate? Pro's & Con's would be helpful in purchasing decisions. I would like to know what works and how to augment my current workflow for speed, etc. Thanks, Ryan Russell P.S.: Converted from Nemetschek Vectorworks Architect 2026 VW Architect used Renderworks & Twinmotion for rendering.

All, I can build a standard residential plan set to default height: 109 1/8". Then I can adjust the room heights via ROOM OBJECTS. What I cannot seem to understand is if I have a common room height, say 10'... .. then I need to adjust outside plate heights for added interest / design elements to 14 ft. How is this effectively achieved without breaking the AUTO tools? Ryan Russell

All, Curious are the "Default Settings" project based or application based? I'm wondering if I modify them, and make a mistake... what is my recovery option. Also, if it's per Project, then I could just delete the Project from the working folder. Sincerely, Ryan Russell

All, Hello, I just switched to CA from VW this week, and love it. The SPEED and toolset is amazing! Currently using CA x17 on a Mac. I'm curious... "Is there a way to build a layout using "hand drawn" methods (4"/ 6" walls), while also incorporating NOMINAL sized materials that I can use for PRODUCTION work?" I'm trying to serve two masters at once and may very well be swimming against the tide, but I wanted to ASK the EXPERTS. Thanks in advance for your time! Sincerely, Ryan Russell
