  1. See this thread: https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/673-partial-framing-view/
  2. Running the 'Plan Check' Tool will restore manually deleted living areas. Just open/then close the Plan Check dbx. No muss, no fuss...
  3. Maybe a good topic for the 'Suggestions Forum'....
  4. Glenn, your posts are always spot on! To me, additional angles are a PITA! They must be entered as +/- 45 degrees and only work in each quadrant once.... If you have the cad lines drawn like you want, I would suggest using the 'make parallel/perpendicular tool' to align your walls with the cad lines, then snap the walls to cad lines and move on to far greater and satisfying things !
  5. I know there is a 'training video' on this somewhere, I can't find it, maybe someone else can help...
  6. Watch the CA training videos! There are over 50 on roof design alone!!!!
  7. Sorry, the Tax Deadline is keeping me occupied... Yes, new wall definitions. (used simple single layer stud wall) The curved siding and OSB exposure are simple P-line solids attached at the transition point between the walls types... I tried the 'material region' tool and got some funky results, so I went with the above... I put roof sections, doors, windows, etc. I didn't want shown on a new layer (Partial Framing-Invisible) and turned display off. Pulled other roof sections back to expose framing as needed. I think I did have to delete two edge surfaces to get the look right. Hole in terrain for foundation view, had to uncheck 'hide terrain intersected by building' to keep terrain color from 'bleeding' onto foundation wall.. Back to taxes!
  8. Here is my 'feeble' attempt to show partial framing without using the dreaded 'Delete Surfaces' tool.
  9. Turn off the 'Undo' function and see what happens. I get a huge increase in speed with it turned off on my PC laptop and no hang ups...
  10. Good answer! A 'reputation' to point to you Gerry! BTW, some PC motherboards are now supporting 'thunderbolt'...
  11. And I gave Curt 'reputation' point for his answer! Good Work! May more follow...
  12. A good point. And if you don't want your full plan posted for whatever reason, just cut and paste the questionable part to a new plan, it's not that hard...

  14. In all my years of using CA, NVidia gaming cards are the way to go!!!
  15. No plan needed, Perry, you spotted the answerer a long time ago....
  16. I don't know why its not working for 'Ron', God bless him and his endeavor to seek the solution to the pocket door conundrum! No macros needed! Just create a 'Text Style' that fits the need.. Its not rocket science! Or just change the 'default'... Sorry, I'm just bent out of shape from what is so simple of an answer... Again my apologies for being such an "A%% Hole'.....
  17. And again once again , the label size is determined by the "Layer Display Options', 'Default Label Style'.... Geez....
  18. Once again, is this not what you want?
  19. Try CCleaner to get rid of all the Crap infesting your computer... http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard It may just help. A good program....
  20. Here it is... Simple too the point...
  21. Take another look at my post... If not pay attention to Perry!!! , the answer is simple!!!!
