I'm new to Chief. I'm using X-8
I am in the process of doing my first project in Chief. I have been using AutoCAD since 1993 and have accumulated hundreds of
details and notes over these years.
I have a couple of questions. Is there an easy and quicker way of importing these details and notes over to Chief other than one
at a time. Question 2, Is it better to insert the details and note directly into the layout sheet or should they be inserted
into the plan file first, then send them to the layout sheet from the plan file?
The reason I am asking is when I inserted some note directly into the layout sheet from the user catalog the the notes
came in at least 10 times the normal size. When I inserted that same note into the plan file the note came in at the correct size.
It seems to me that inserting the details and notes directly into the layout sheet would same a lot of time. But it seems that doing
so you have to deal with the details and notes coming in way to large.
Thanks,
Mike
