  1. if you are using X15 there is a denoiser in the camera setup. I generally cap the live samples as 300 and set the "denoise when complete". the white dots should go away on the bottom right in the status bar you will see the samples increasing every time you move the camera. once you hit 300 (if you set it to that). it should stop and then denise
  2. yes makes sense now that you have explained it . Thank you it was an inateresting look, the faux stucco window
  3. hmm, i think i pulled the wall up earlier when I had the gable roof lower ... but the default wall heights are greyed out so it must be autogenerated?? if I redraw the 2nd floor wall, then there CA creates the upper and lower wall, but then the lower wall shows as not the default wall height, and then if I check it, it goes back to being a two story wall any idea how to fix it? 694 Muirfield Cr - fe.zip
  4. any ideas why this might happen if i pull down the wall:
  5. This is a different case. Nothing gets selected
  6. nvm, it is trying to match the hip, otherwise the gable would go back to eternity
  7. looks good: move the wall:
  8. I would think the onus is on us although setting a default is probably wise. The truss above less the overhang is actually a legitimate truss on a gable wall
  9. You could try extracting the file from the zip file C:\ProgramData\Chief Architect Premier X15\Referenced Files and then assigning to the billboard
  10. I have not had any issues, probably for months now, after NVDIA fixed their driver
  11. ...to avoid confusion, there is the send to layout -> Current screen as image. That is not changeable from the layout box as it is just a static image
  12. try: open up the truss and check rebuild
  13. This vertical black line just showed up even though I have not changed the exterior walls in a couple days Any ideas? I see these every once in awhile. and just now while I was looking I noticed the footing line was about the same place so for shts and giggles, I turned off the footing layer in plan view, went back to elevation and it is gone. tried to repeat the behaviour and I cannot. then I was in ortho view and I turned on walls, labels, and then the vertical black lines appeared on the back of the house and now I cannot get them to go away. it looks to be because of the side wall (below seems to match the lines), but why just show up at random? then I start fiddling with the wall intersection tool for the one corner, and then poof both corners vertical lines vanish unbelievable. what am I missing here?
  14. feel free to make a suggestion in the suggestion forum. I would agree it would help in certain situations. For most situations i do, i just approximately draw the walls, and then go around the building and adjust them to actual dimensions I use the auto exterior dimension tool to make the dimensions, and then click on a wall, click on the dimension and then enter the dimension). but if you do not do that and put in interior walls, you will be stuck resizing walls everywhere, if you have to resize the exterior walls later. although your rack problem is intriguing, I cannot visualize the problem, so you may want to post the problem in a series of screenshots
  15. i gave up, deleted the joists and redrew
  16. even if I pull back a deck wailing wall and change the size, it is keeping the joists in the same position. if I lower the room floor in abolsute elevation, they still jsut stay there. I think CA thinks I have "retain deck framing" on, even thought it is off....but odd it is only the joists if I delete the the entire deck room, they are still there:
  17. unfortunateely it did not work. i think maybe it is because I have the deck next to a covered deck (both are decks). And the covered deck is 2x10
  18. no ...see second screenshot (which looks like it is part of the first)
  19. so I saw this yesterday and then redrew the deck to fix it, but now it has happened again today. I was resizing the joists in the deck from 2x10 to 2x8, and now it looks like this, with the joist protruding through the deck boards. Anyone else seen this? xsec shows the rim board dropped properly I thought maybe it had to do with this setting, but even if it does, how does one "fix it" now, as changing it doesnt seem to do anything even if I resize now to 2x6 changed to 2x6 and now it is worse I tried rebuilding all framing, no luck I could just lower them all manually, but really there must be a way to get them to move, without having to redraw the deck
  20. for that budget that is simialr to what I would buy(i would buy intel, but that is just because I have no idea on AMD), as long as the memory is expandable. i have a 17" screen. I wouldnt go back to anything smaller
  21. looks like the 3080 laptop GPU is pretty close to the same as the 4070 laptop so the one you pointed out is a later processor than mine but without the 32GB for $2450, $200 less than what I paid 18 months ago. and it is ddr5 for the ram so that is good
  22. i think you have to watch a little bit, on the 40 series, some of them are ranked lower than the 30 series
