  1. I'm with you, GET 'ER DONE!!!!
  2. Dang right, Ron has been beating this topic for a long time, and I'm on the bandwagon.... Geez, how hard can it be for the gurus at CA to fix the framing issue.... Maybe I'm missing something... JUST DO IT!!!
  3. Bonnet = Hood Boot = Trunk Screen = Wind Shield A 1964 Ford Cortina imported from England (steering wheel relocated for us Americans) sits in my back yard.... GD the tax office, they have this piece of junk valued at $8,000 dollars... Killing me... From what I gather the 'Aussies' really like these cars... Any takers...
  4. An SSD will speed up the lag time associated with the 'saving' of the 'undo' steps. It won't necessarily help that much when you need to actually use it... With 'undo' on I noticed a lag time of around two to three seconds with a conventional hard drive using X6, with a large file when doing almost anything, with an SSD it is less than a second.... Worth the upgrade!!!
  5. Agreed... And I never use the material list either... And I'm not crazy either, even though my wife thinks so...
  6. SSD is the way to go... Eliminated a lot a lag time for me on everything. However, Undo is still slow... Doug stated 'Undo' needs a rework in a previous post. Maybe they will get around to one day.....
  7. Yep, those despicable 'pocket doors' especially....
  8. 'Working from the top down'... I'm thinking this may be 'key' to getting everything right... Not sure why, but this method seems to work better for me, especially when there are multiple rooms above a lower space... I can't pin it down and feel like "HumbleChief" sometimes... I've been using CA since 1998 and tend to agree that the structure dbx is indeed infested by demons... Maybe you can elaborate on this Perry... Scott, watched your video, nice... BTW, his handle is 'sranwrap' not 'saranwrap' Not sure he wants to be associated with a plastic wrap product!!!
  9. Update your video drivers, try a different font, post the plan, add a signature to your profile showing your computer specs...
  10. Try adjusting edit handle size and tolerance....
  11. BTW, Perry has a good option that is not necessarily a 'work around', just another way of using CA. divider walls normally go to the 'invisible walls layer'... Case in point , I may want to show them, but not the invisible walls layer, hence another layer needs to be created.. , a matter resolved in seconds... Keep in mind that all posts can lead to inspiration and solutions... Thanks Perry!
  12. You are correct, (just trying to explain how the option works)... And commendations on your answer! However I still leave it 'off' with a lot of the other auto stuff... I know how it works, don't bother me! It does indeed screw you sq. footage if you have an island room unconnected...It shows the island room sq. footage and adds that to the total! Maybe CA should rethink "island rooms" and how they work or don't., and the options... Again, Thanks! Bill .
  13. Once you turn it off, you have to delete the wall, it will not regenerate. Here's your plan without it...
  14. Turn off 'connect island walls' in General Wall Defaults.
  15. Turn off 'display standard dimensions' in the bay window dbx.
  16. I have beat this bandwagon before (it was along time ago), all other programs work fine.... except CA. Logic would dictate that CA is the problem if all other programs perform flawlessly... "Burn" tech support's ears, they are there to help you! Anyway, Doug's suggestion of running 'disconnected' from your network, router, seems like a good idea... I'm guessing your IT Guy is like mine... Me, myself, and I... Your patience in this matter is something I admire! Best of Luck!
  17. A good point! Rolling along with a new PC and no problems.... 'Mac' is 'Crap'! The recent release of iOS 7 for cell phones is a complete failure! Apple is fast becoming a 'rotten' fruit... However; Scott I wish you the best of luck in all your endeavors, you have helped me on countless occasions!!!! Thanks again for all the help!
  18. There are a lot of new "handles" out there with the implementation of this 'new' forum. Please be kind and provide a 'signature' that identifies who you are. Just a name or something that would help identify who you were on the previous forum. I hate the fact that I can't recognize some of you long time users... Some are evident like DRAWZILLA (very unique Perry!)... Others not, like mine... Also what version of CA you are using, your computer specs, etc, would be helpful in constructing meaningful replies to questions asked....
  19. Thanks Kenoeightspot, another tidbit I didn't know existed in the Preferences dbx.... Dang these new handles, OK Guys, Gals, how about adding a signature so I'll know your real name... What version of CA you are using and your computer specs.... very helpful in constructing meaningful replies.....
