A Google search for Architectural Rendering Services will give you a start. The China, India, etc. companies are usually cheaper. We've used them in the past for big commercial projects - quick turn-around, though the language barrier sometimes interferes.

Custom Moulding Profile - Scale Snafu and User Catalogue MIA
rlackore replied to angelaraedesigns's topic in General Q & A
Page 662 of the X8 Reference Manual has very simple and clear instructions on how to create a molding profile. Be sure the profile is a single open or closed polyline (not a CAD block). It's easy to check if what you saved to your User Library is a valid profile: simply right click the item and check for the Place Molding Profile option in the menu: ...if the option isn't there, then the item isn't a valid profile. -
I don't get that when I open the Room Specification dbx from the plan you uploaded: Interesting.
-
Or select the kitchen room, open the dbx, check the Default box for Structure>Ceiling: ...and click OK when you get the warning: now your kitchen ceiling is all the same height: ...though you may want to check what's going on upstairs above the kitchen.

I'd extend the garage foundation down below the frost depth of the lower grade. Shoot a X-Section/Elevation of the foundation wall and break/adjust the wall polyline.
-
The problem is you have "No Rail on Selected Edge" checked in the dbx for that landing edge: Uncheck it and you'll get a railing:

No. Go to More Reply Options and attach the file.

Still no joy on the download.

Change Glass Material in Window, Doesn't Show.
rlackore replied to Anna_Gorres's topic in General Q & A
To get the glass material to change you must have a side width for the Sash. Why? I don't know, but it's necessary. -
Adding mullions to glass cabinet door & adding crosspiece to cabinet door
rlackore replied to lcheu1's topic in General Q & A
You can create a custom cabinet door symbol. -
If you attach the plan file it will be easier for folks to help.

Yes. Build 18.2.1.2x64.

Did you ever get a final answer? The same thing is happening to me:

Yep. I use a railing wall for my toilet layouts: I also use railing walls for my office cubicle panels:

Sometimes black metal mean you may have forgotten to turn photon mapping on.

This should definitely be put in the Suggestion Forum. It's a PITA to develop ceiling grid layouts for commercial projects, especially when the room is divided up into different ceiling areas. Autodesk has a very good ceiling grid tool for their products - Chief should have the same (especially as it's being advertised for light commercial work).

I did not know that. Even easier. Thank you.
-
Isn't that easily taken care of by simply disconnecting the upper stair run from the landing? workspace.plan
-
I disagree. My solution is not a work-around - it uses Chief's standard tools. But, again, maybe I don't understand what the OP is trying to achieve.
-
Okay. Couldn't that be taken care of in plan view with a dashed CAD line, and in 3D by unchecking 'Open Underneath'?

I'm confused why winders won't work. Maybe I don't understand exactly what you're trying to achieve, but here are the settings I would propose: Make the lower run winders: Then turn off the handrail at the wall:

Have you played with making the stairs winders? https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?/topic/7408-notching-stairway-around-walls/?hl=winders#entry65869

Can I have 2x floor joists and 4x floor joists for the second floor
rlackore replied to dshall's topic in General Q & A
Yeah, I don't define the structure on a room by room basis. In my post #4 I was just making an observation, not complaining or making a feature request.
