For me it was a multi-window thing and it has nothing to do with graphics card or processor speed or capabilities. I am running 64 bit windows 8.1. I do not know what the issue is but I used my second monitor as my new boat anchor and it is all good now..

I seem to have been having an issue with X6 crashing my system.  It seems to be only happening while I am running a Raytrace but on other occasions just opening an item an modifying it.  Has anyone else had any issues with X6 crashing?

Yes I have the same problem does not crash my system just Chief and it does it a lot- mostly when I am doing an undo or trying to go back but it does it other times as well. Love the upgrade but because of this I am almost sorry I did.

As soon as I recoup from my new plotter.. Ill get one ...reviews are great.

Lots of luck on this one..

Stiil Have not figured out exactly how you use the tool but I will..

Perry You got that right..

Glenn:

Thanks so much overlooked that one.

Curt:

The walls were easy I just made new wall defs. The Roof was a little bit more difficult. I used the delete surface tool, turned off  all auto framing and skimmed away surfaces. However every-time I would remove one portion and change something some of the surfaces would regenerate but leave my previous step unchanged. I have not figured out how Bill did the siding thing but I will. I just think for additions this is a nice view to show clients. I am fairly new to Chief but an expert Revit user. Chief is awesome though.  

If you need help in the future we can turn around construction docs in 3 days...I have an engineer on staff as well.

This is what I came up with..

NCC-1701 Ok how did you do it? Looks awesome. Exactly what I want to do... 

I think I fixed it for you can I send it back to your reg email.

So what part are you struggling with?

Scott:

You were my super hero but I just reduced you to hero.  Anyway your probably right. I am going to try Perry' s suggestion if it does not work. I am going to the pub for a few hour and contemplate it over some lager. 

I want to show the framing of a dormer room I am adding on a house but show the rest of the exterior finished as it exists-in perspective view. Can anyone help a lost soul.

If there is enough interest I am considering starting a Charlotte area user group.  Any takers?
