WOW, Scott thank you so much, I'll show my results soon.

This is very similar to a question I just asked. I want an arch with two columns.

Thanks Joe, that makes sense for the tub.

A drawing is attached. I've tried to do this using an arched doorway but I wasn't able to eliminate the jambs. I also tried soffits with a doorway. I'm lost for ideas, I'll appreciate your help. I'm trying to build a round or elliptical arch with two columns on the side. Second question; How can I build a deck wall to wall and a front for the tub that are covered with tile?

When I have a question about what the local inspector wants, I always ask in the planning stage. He/she appreciates that, it makes their job easier and I always pass inspection. They don't want to turn anyone down and return for compliance, they want to pass it and move on. Of course they must enforce the code but they'd rather see it pass and meet requirements. I have a very good relationship with the inspectors because I ask up front in the few cases that I'm not sure. Sometimes I ask their advice on design or cost saving possibilities.

That's interesting. Pittsburgh doesn't require it. I remember the State voting it down. People with well water were going to be required to have a large storage tank with gravity feed. This meant it would be above the top ceiling and would require a heater to prevent freezing. Can you imagine the cost?

No Sprinklers in residential here in PA., no spring closures on doors either. Are Sprinklers required in residential in your area?

Screen Capture on a PC; hit "Print Screen" on your keyboard. Go to the Desktop and Paste (Ctrl + V). This will place the screen capture on your desktop. You could also paste it to any folder.

How about an attached garage and move the AC unit?

Yes, It takes some time to program it. After the initial set up it can be transferred to another computer. You can also export/import and share the programming. Companies sell pre-programmed systems for things like Photoshop.

Take a look at X-Keys. They're programmable keys that work with both PC and Mac. I have them set up for Photoshop and Lightroom but I'm considering changing the setup to Chief. You simple program each Key to your Hot Key list. Each Key has a removable clear cap, remove the cap, slide in a label and re-install the cap.

It is a walkout, changing the walls to framed walls worked. I had to move each wall back 4 1/2" to align the brick. I appreciate everyone's help.

Interesting

Thanks Ken, I'll let you know how it goes.

I installed the NVIDIA GTX 680 in my Mac Pro. The largest increase in speed is noticed in Ray Tracing. I also notice a large increase in video editing speed.

How can I show the brick on the lower left corner of this house where the foundation is exposed? This is my first attempt at showing the terrain.

Reminds me of the days when I used Chief '97 and Windows 3.1 The 3D worked back then, it always has.

Tuesday evening I started a high quality, kitchen Ray Trace. I meant to stop it in about an hour. I went to bed and the next morning I went skiing with family. That evening I remembered about the Ray Trace and finally stopped it after 23 hours 8 min. and 238 passes. I was surprised to find the file size was only 102K as a jpeg. The quality of the photo is outstanding. Has anyone else let it go that long?

You could always tell Chief that you are at the equator.

It could be the time of year and the sun angle. Did you set up - Preferences > CAD > Sun Angle? Shadows would be different now than in summer.

Hi Bob, I'm no expert but it looks to me that the sunlight is causing it. Toggle the sunlight off & on and you'll see it all matches. On the full camera view, right click away from the building the "Toggle Sunlight" should be an option.

OWC, Other World Computing, is where I bought it. The sales rep told me that it's supported by the Apple OS updates.

You convinced me, I just ordered an EVGA GeForce GTX 680 Mac Edition Graphics Card for my Mac Pro. I upgrading from a Radeon HD 4870. I should see about a 5X increase.
