Nicinus Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I have two problems here: First, I found this very nice trellis in the library earlier, but now that I want to come back to it I can't find it in the library anymore? Anyone that recognises it? This is from an earlier screen shot and I never saved it to my user library it seems. I was just playing around so unfortunately I didn't save the plan either. Since then I've reinstalled Chief on an SSD so it could be that I've missed the particular library it came from. A bit frustrating Chief can't tell me if there is a library missing. I had a crash, and had to download all bonus and manufacturer libs one by one. Second, assuming I ever find it again, how would I create a slight 15-30 degree bend on it? Oops, forgot to include the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kbird1 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I have something similar under Pergolas , try looking under Arbor too. Carport is a good guess actually... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicinus Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 I'm half way there, I did find a plan where I used it and it was in my user library! I still can't find which library it came from originally though. However, I noticed something while searching for it. If you have a symbol/object (is there a difference?) in you user library, but it is not referenced in a core/bonus/man library, it doesn't get the thumbnail and size specifications in it's property box? This confuses me. So objects in a user library are always dependent on the one in a Chief library? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARCHIJEF2000 Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I'm glad you found your trellis, if you want to bend it could try (re)import as a door or window in a curved wall. Here's a link to a prehistoric post when dinosaurs roamed the earth and David Beckham still played football. http://www.chieftalk.com/showthread.php?19156-3D-Signage&highlight= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicinus Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Well, yes and no. I found it in a plan but I didn't find it in the library so it seems as if I have limited control over it. Thanks for your suggestion on bending the trellis. I will try it. Very cool idea! It never cease to surprise me how clever users finds way to get software to do things that wasn't intended or net yet implemented! (On the other hand it kind of becomes a bit frustrating as well when you need too many work arounds to get things done in a package. ;/ ) PS. Don't know about dinosaurs, but it seems as if Beckham may come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandilocks Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 It's so frustrating that we cannot Explode the library's pergolas, etc. to modify them as needed I need just a portion of a wood trellis as an exterior attachment to go over a garage door. I was trying to be lazy and not have to create one myself... Anybody have a link? Something like the attached pic.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
