You guy are correct about Apple. They are the ones I should be upset with. I'm looking at a PC, now. Here are the spec. What I I missing? Will this support VR? This is Dell Alienware Processor 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i9 11900KF (8-Core, 16MB Cache, 3.5GHz to 5.3GHz w/Thermal Velocity Boost Operating System = Windows 10 Pro English Video Card = NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 10GB GDDR6X Memory = 64GB Dual Channel DDR4 XMP at 3200MHz; up to 128GB (additional memory sold separately) Hard Drive = 2TB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD (Boot) + 2TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s (Storage) Chassis Options = Lunar Light chassis with High-Performance CPU Liquid Cooling and 1000W Power Supply Wireless = Killer™ Wi-Fi 6 AX1650 (2x2) 802.11ax Wireless and Bluetooth FGA = no FGA Base =Alienware Aurora R12 Processor Branding =11th Gen Intel Core i9 non-vPro label $3,824.99 Show savings - $76.50 Item Total: $3,748.49 Includes a 1 Year Hardware Warranty with Onsite/In-Home Service After Remote Diagnosis

I downloaded it. I'm extremely disappointed that X13 Real Time Ray Tracing is not supported on the Mac. I have a $4,400 Mac Pro and a $3,900 MacBook Pro. It's hard to justify buying a $4,000 PC just to Ray Trace.

I registered for both, did you?

Webinars on X13 - June 3 and June 10, https://www.chiefarchitect.com/events/#whats-new

I'm an electrical contractor. I use CA for electrical design, meet with the owners and wire the houses according to the drawings. Jorgearaya gave you accurate advice. The "6 ft Rule" is used as a bare minimum for outlet placement. If I were designing a spec home or apartment, I'd use that rule. For custom homes, I place all the furniture and design the electrical and lighting based on furniture and cabinet layouts.

We made Blueprints in college back in 1973. The method was obsolete even then. Invented in 1842, blueprints were truly Blue The drawing to be copied, drawn on translucent paper, is placed against paper sensitized with a mixture of ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide. The sensitized paper is then exposed to light. Where the areas of the sensitized paper are not obscured by the drawing, the light makes the two chemicals react to form blue. The exposed paper is then washed in water. This produces a negative image, with the drawing appearing in white against a dark blue background.

Following because I have a Quest 2

I prefer having two different pitches like 12/12 for the roof and 8/12 for the ceiling plane or 8/12 & 6/12. That allows for plenty of insulation and venting.

They told me having all your files on Apple iCloud was also a known cause.

I finally called CA tech support about my Toolbars disappearing on my Mac. It got to a point where about 25% of the time, when I used a 3D camera, the toolbars were gone. I had to close the program, open it and restore the toolbars. Answer = move the CA Data folder to the same drive as the software. I had the Data folder on a different drive.

Is there anything similar to Apple's Air Play? I use it with a Sony 65" TV and my Mac desktop and laptop. It's a wireless connection that works very well without delays and is 4K

I never use a mouse. I use the Stylus on my Wacom Intuous 5 (PTH650) I also use programable keys called XKEYS. There are 55 programable button that I've setup for CA. Press a key and exterior walls are selected, I have different keys for all the doors, windows, cabinets, walls, roof planes, etc.

I would call HP, but it doesn't look like your computer can be upgraded to a dedicated video card. LOOK HERE Lack of a dedicated graphics card is the largest problem.

Build your roof first, then building the sloped ceiling using ceiling planes. Set the base of the sloped ceiling at the same height at the top plate of the wall. Experiment, you may need to set the base an inch or 1 1/2" higher. Set the top of the slope at the flat ceiling height

I'm not an Architect, only an electrician. Here in PA, USA., I've seen stairs in garages to the basement with a fire rated door and fire rated walls around the staircase. The door was required at the top and not permitted at the bottom. The door also had a 4" concrete curb under the threshold. The problem is gasoline fumes are heavier than air and will accumulate at the lowest point. An open staircase or non fire rated walls, door and 4" concrete curb would require the electrical at the lower lever to be Class 3, Division 3, Explosion proof. The cost in material is outrageous, one switch is $400. That's not a problem since the building inspector would turn the design down. All I'm saying is a call to the local inspector may be a good idea.

Having an opening in a garage floor may be al fire code violation. I would look into that before you get too far. I know it would be in the USA.

Be aware, that by default, the 16" MacBook Pro uses the on-board Intel video graphics when running on battery. When plugged in, the default is the AMD Radeon Pro video card. These defaults are set to preserve battery life. The defaults can be changed in System Prefences > Battery > Battery > Automatic Graphics Switching

Of course all Windows programs can run on a Mac via Bootcamp, Parallels or VMWare

I spent more time tonight in CA with Big Sur. I don't notice any lag. 3D views all work as fast as before. All of the Libraries and file structure are the same. All the software opens quickly, just like it always did. I use Parallels for Windows 10. Parallels has a Big Sur update and also works normally. I use Davinci Resolve Pro for video editing, it too is compatible. So far, I haven't found any of my software or hardware having a problem. On the Mac Pro, last year I upgraded the SSD and RAM with OWC products. I emailed OWC before I installed Big Sur. They said both upgrades are compatible with Big Sur and they were correct.

I would wait until the 16" MacBook Pro with dedicated video card is offered with the M1

Odd, As you know, shutting down the printer and computer & reboot, usually clears memory problems.

I upgraded to Big Sur on my 2019 16" MacBook Pro and 2013 Mac Pro. No problems so far.

Post a little more detail of you printing steps. Mine are: from Layout > Print to PDF > Save in a Folder named Layout > Print the PDF

No, I don't have Bluebeam
