My first edition was 3D Home Architect in 1997 made by Boderbund. It ran on Windows '95.

Edit > Default Settings > Dimensions > Dimensions >1:25 Dimensions > Edit
Change mm to ft-in
Set the rest of the settings like fractions, uncheck thousandths etc.
OK > Done
You may also need to rest the 1:50 Dimensions

I didn't have any problems with it. I moved walls and door using the dimensions.

Any video editing program can do it. I prefer Sony Vegas Pro but a simple program like Sony Vegas Movie Studio will work.
Other programs are Apple iMovie, Adobe Premier, Adobe Premier Elements.
The reason I prefer Vegas Pro is that it will accept just about any format of video, still photographs and sound that you throw at it.
You can also use a Microphone to record.
You can make a DVD or Blu Ray disc. You can also post it to Utube, Vimeo, FaceBook or send it to an iPhone or your web site.

If your box is filled with CAD, how is there any room for brick?
-
Lengthen the overall duration.

Open the Wall Cabinet specifications.
Front > check Drawer / Drawer Overlay > Vertical Overlap = 2"
Face Items > select the door which is probably #2 > Move Down

Nice job Barton

I don't have an answer for you but I'd love to have a Wacom monitor.
I been using Wacom tablets for years and presently use an Intous 5 Touch.
Almost ever time I've had an odd problem with my Mac, updating the Wacom driver or waiting for a new driver has fixed it.
I'd contact the tech department of Wacom first and then CA tech assistance.

Dishwashers go into a 24" base cabinet. Simply put a 24" base cabinet at the end, place the dishwasher in that cabinet. The end panel is automatic. If you want the end panel to be finished or with a fixed door, specify that in the dbx of that end cabinet.

On my Mac Pro, the 3D redraws were very fast. I even placed the pool inside the house just to see what would happen.

Don't use a corner cabinet, use an angled cabinet.
Decide if you want one long cabinet to the right or two cabinets as I've shown in my previous post #9
Using two cabinets will allow you to adjust the toe space
Revised plan attached

I want to thank every one for your help. I was able to get it to work. At first I couldn't click & drag. I found you have to drag the handle at the rear of the chimney.
Placing the fireplace before you build the foundation shows a footer for the chimney. As you said, dragging the chimney up in 3D view took it through the roof.
Thanks again everyone.

Chief still has fireplace but it functions slightly different. Before it did automatically cut the exterior wall and centered itself. Now it stops even with the exterior side of the wall. This can be adjusted by clicking the symbol and dragging handles to place it as desired. I like this much better. It also gets an automated foundation now where it did not before.
Not only still here, but better than before....
I'm glad someone else remembers the early days of Chief or maybe it was 3-D Home Architect, the very early days.
I know it worked at one time because I was always amazed by it. I'll try you method.
Thanks for you help

Thanks for all the suggestions. Took a look at xkeys and I think that may be the way to go. Number of keys is I suppose the question. 24 seems good to me. More, and my age-onset dementia will be a limiting factor
Thanks to all
Just be aware that to program and label the keys takes a couple of hours

I use this a lot and I have never seen an auto chimney tool. I have to make them out of p-solid or walls
Some people have made fireplaces ( and shared) that already have a chimney. You just drag it up where you want it.
Thanks Perry, May it was pre-Chief, which would have been 3D Home Architect.
Oh well, I'll do it like you suggest.

Control + Tab should do it...but it doesn't.
I'll try it again to make sure. But that didn't work for me yesterday.
Interesting, it works on both my Mac Pro and MacBook Air.
-
Did anyone else start with 3D Home Architect back in the 90's?
-
Control + Tab will do it.
Command + Tab will switch between open software programs.

Broderbund owned the company back then and it ran on Windows '95, which was an upgrade from Windows 3.1
The chimney was basic, no chimney cap or flue liner, just rectangular outside walls of brick.

in X6 under Build> there is no option for Fireplace ? no icon on the toolbar for same?
Yes, there is. That command / icon does not place the firebox on the outside of the wall with only the face on the inside.
Unless of course I'm missing something.

Double click the sink to open the dialog box. Change the Floor to Bottom dimension to lower it.
You may need to also slide it to the front of the cabinet
