thanks Guys for your replies, helped me out

Hi all, I am running x14 and would like to know how to set the default line setting when sending and external elevation view to layout so that it is grey as per the pattern. I thought I had a handle on this in previous versions but have lost the setting. Essentially I want the default setting to be grey line for pattern when sending to layout , at the moment I am having to manually go back into the layout box and mark the pattern line as grey. I assume also the lineweight can also be set.
Does anyone have a solution here and is this resolved in x15?
Thanks in advance to the problem solvers....

Hi all I am running x14 and this has just happened , in fact this came up when closing chief a couple of days ago - didnt think much of it until now....
Any ideas.
OpenGL being a graphics thing ... does it mean there is an issue with the drivers and updating??
Love ya thoughts.
My laptop recently updated to Windows 11 pro on 10-2-23

Hi Glenn, I couldn't quite remember but you helped me ot with this a few years back - thanks mate.

thanks Chops also

Hey Eric thanks for that, has given me an idea thanks for sharing.
-
hi thanks for the reply.
Yes could use this setting but it restricts the proportions depending on what the original pattern size was based on.
the scaling operates on proportionate sizing. not particular to the individual block size hence the 2 different material sizes posted
If I could get to the width and height scaling dimensions that would work.
-
Hi all just want to know if there is a way of unlocking the scale setting for a 1/3 running bond pattern so I can adjust to suit either brick or blocks.
say brick size 162mm high x 290mm long and optional...
block size 350 high x 1000mm long

Hi all I am sure this has been done, but is there a fix for sending a floor plan view to layout then rotating to suit page but still keep dimensions and text as per the original model view?
Screenshot 2 is the model file view
Screenshot is the layout view after turning 90deg to fit onto landscape page.
The reason for rotation is the page size limitation (A3) and the fact that you cannot rotate elevation views which is what I would do to keep the floor plan running vertically.
using version x11
have they improved this in x12 ??
thanks in advance.

Thanks Graham for the questions.
Yes aware the surface book deals with graphics via integrated and dedicated.
Its got me stumped.
Has only just occured within last month, like it was a windows update or something.
Have checked the nvidia pathways.
Also ran a benchmark program although not game worthy frame rates there was no issue with running it.

thanks Eric.
video card I think is the issue here.

Hi Eric are you able to run some shadow shots in elevation various cameras??

Yes had the problem before updating drivers.
Dermot I will check the article and advise on how I get on.

Hi MagStew, just to let you know I have resolved.
Chief got back to me to confirm this is a drivers update.
I had to manually update drivers, followed a you tube video which explained that the computer (windows software for some reason does not always update to latest drivers even when requested.
So manually updated from NVIDIA and downloaded.
Bit of muckin around..
Interestingly enough because my computer can use on board graphics or the NVIDIA chip it defaulted to the onboard (lower grade) graphics card.
Hence had to do some check/uncheck boxes to get the chief software to use the NVIDIA.

Hi MagStew saw your post , yes having issue.
Have you resolved??

Hi Rene I checked out your youtube video downloading the sync link, however the link did not come up when right clicking the user library folder.
Is this a windows set up ?

Thanks all and Dermott,
apologies haven't updated my profile from X10 Beta is X10 is current.
I will apply some of the advice and get back to you.

Hi Rene, if you were looking for flexability to work offsite on travels etc and you need the ability to sketch and mark up pdfs whilst jumping into chief would you say the surface book 3 achieves this, I am currently looking for a two in one (I have surface book 2) and looking at the surface studio with nvidia gpu.
Interested though in your legion 7 machine with external gpu - hear they dont work with every machine?
