  1. Thanks, I think he's going to buy Home Designer Pro
  2. It is possible to give an older version of CA Premier to a close friend. I own every version since '97 and have many of them on CD including the key codes. I want to do it by CA's rules.
  3. I opened an older drawing and saved under X12. It crashed as soon as I clicked on the stairs. I started a new drawing and no problems with stairs.
  4. One thing I always like about CA is their consistency in Menu Items. Learning new skills and techniques is usually easy because the Menu is similar to the existing program.

  8. I use two 24" W x 21" D cabinets with a 12" W x 21" D drawer base in the center. Then place sinks in the 24" bases.
  9. If you mean the final Full Version, the web site states end of Q1, 2020
  10. Box Headers are part of the X12 Upgrade. Yes it changes the framing as you describe.
  11. I especially like the Trey ceilings with rope lights and reversible crown molding
  12. I used CHAT with CA. They said it was OK to share this with anyone or everyone. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/whats-new/

  14. Every time I use the Full Camera for PBR, the Camera Exposure is 0.18. This results is a dark Rendering and I have to adjust it every time. How can I change the Default Camera Exposure to something like 0.5 ? 3D > Rendering Techniques > Rendering Options > Physically Based > Camera Exposure

  18. I've done it by opening Room Specifications > Ceiling > Ceiling Finish > Edit > Ceiling Finish Layer > Insert Above > Thickness (set depth) > Texture > Insulation Air Gap
  19. I'm glad you're getting the 16" to work better. The 16" MacBook Pro is probably my next purchase in the Spring. I've been using CA since 1997 and Macs since 2006. I've always had a Mac Pro, not a Mac Book Pro, but the Tower. The plan is to keep my Tower and use the Notebook on job sites. I've never had a problem with the Mac OS and CA.
  20. As you can see in this attic view, the skylight has no well to the ceiling
