  1. In X15 --- working on First Floor Plan - Added a window and "poof" Foundation and First Floor gone - On Second Floor still there - some type of error message(freaked out) and saved file. Now all I have is the Second Floor and nothing else - Hours of work lost --- hopefully not. Thought auto-save might haved worked, but can't find them.  Any help appreciated.

  2. Previously transferred pdf. files to layout not showing up. I can hit area where they were on layout sheet and the outline shows up but the actual pdf. won't show up. Any help appreciated....also happening to my Arch. Stamp that I had in there - a major issue.

    Architect in Matthews, NC

    Relatively new user - now have X-9

  4. I am trying to send perspectives to clients and reviewers and the drawings are getting too big - any directions for reducing drawings sizes? So, I will try to be more specific - sorry for any confusion. I am using X9 - my name is Robert and I am an Architect. I have to send my drawings(pdf. files) to my clients and our county for review and because of the size they tend to be, it has become very hard to send a group of drawings. I include perspective views with my sets because they "tell the story" to clients and reviewers. I appreciate all the comments, especially the one about trying to change views (vector,etc.) that may take up less data.... I will continue experimenting - love the software, just having a learning curve issue from AutoCad.
  5. Anyone near Charlotte that is available for some intermediate training?
  6. I have been thru a number of videos and I can not find anything about rooms that have had walls removed(demo. layer turned off) but will not create a whole room after the walls are removed. I'm sure there is a simple answer, but I have spent literally hours trying to fix, rectify, erase, whatever to create a room from where I have demolished/removed existing walls. Any help would be appreciated. Robert
  7. I'm very new to Chief Architect and I'm just trying to get started....especially on remodels. I would love to be able to use an existing "remodel layer set" to start from and get going with this software that I hope will help me do my job more efficiently. Every time I download Dalton or Albertson it tell me I can't open the zip. file....it's unsupported. What's that mean? Please help - I really want this investment to work. Thanks, Robert
