Whebn I select an icon the screen freezes and I have to press ESC to unfreeze

I'm having all sorts of problems lately, my latest is I can't print to PDF from CA, I can print everything else but not layout sheets from CA-6. I think it may be a windows issue. I'm using Windows 10 and I'm not impressed. I can't print anything to my printer, so I connected it to another computer and usually email the PDF to it and copy off hard copies from it

Thanks

Here's what I get with a 3D and shadows

I appears that the rendering is too dark and not very crisp..For my purpose I can just add shadows to a 3D shot. However, I would like to do some good renderings for my better designs ( on my site )

However I'm not impressed with the raytracing..Can someone help me with the setting.

My system consists of

Asus motherboard Prime B250-A

16 GB Ram

EVGA Geforce 1060 Graphic Card

Kingston V400 Series 240GB SSD

Intel Core i7-7700 4.2 Ghz Processor

PS...this is all Dutch to me

Thanks

Works great..just print screen ,paste, crop, save as jpeg to picture file 3 Steps compared to about 10 with vista

When I get everything loaded and set up I'll try to do one

I just purchased a new computer and am setting up CA and other programs tonight. So I'm basically learning CA all over again. So here's my first question of several I expect to be posting over the next couple of days...I do some renderings..before I would print screen..click Paint.. paste...cut ...don't save....paste ..save as  and file it..What is the process now. I'm using CA 6  and I went from vista to windows 10.

Like I said this is the first of several questions I will be posting as I set up CA

I'm looking to buy a new system, It,s been 10 years and Vista is no longer supported by MS. What is a good PC,what should I be looking for re: Ram, hard drive, processor, video card etc.  It doesn't have to be the latest and greatest...just good.

I basically selected each items and keep clicking select and delete.. But why did there items copy so many times. It was 5 units and the last units had about 25 copies of each item which decreased as I got closer to first unit. Anyway

Thanks for all the help

Where do I see the # of copies and is there a way to delete without individually deleting them

Thanks for info

Ten_Unit_Condo.plan

I'm working on a 10 unit condo and my computer is very slow but only when on this file. I keep getting a memory warning. I checked the properties and it's size is 11.5 MB this is twice what other projects  are ( even when finished ). Because its a simple inline building I've used copy and paste a lot. Is there something I'm not aware of that's causing this

I'm using CA-6Thank RCarter

Colonial-10_unit_condo.plan

I can see it in Full Overview but not in elevations

Yes..go to Atrium windows and creat a sunroom

How come atriums don't display in elevations

Mouse is totally gone rogue. it only happens in CA..Settings are set for left button but right button seems to be controlling everything. Its a Logitect M305

Hi, I;m using X6. My left button on my mouse is selecting but not dragging. I have tried with a different mouse..same result. Everything was working OK and just started to go south

What are the steps to export a plan to an autocad user so he can basically edit it, do rendering  etc.

thanks

RCarter

Mainly single units and duplexs

Looking for someone in Canada (because of currency exchange) to do quality rendering . Get back to me with sample of work and cost. I will provide plan file

Roger

OK...If I export the 3DS what can the Autocad user see at the other end...Can he rotate house??? use diff. textures and colours???

RC

Joey

I don't see a 3ds in the drop down

This Autocad user wants to take my plan file are do his own renderings.. is this even possible
