mthd97 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Hi Terry M Stephens, It’s cool to use another CAD app if that is certainly beneficial to your workflow going forward in your private business. Many of us also use other CAD apps too. I was just highlighting that an auto reversing a wall problem is not really a big enough reason to give up on CA and call it “Nonsense”. As you may well know, the program defaults to that action under certain conditions. The system inside CA is designed to be very user friendly, fast and to get to the final result quickly. With more sophisticated CAD/BIM apps, we will have to put more time and effort into learning how to use them correctly in order to be efficient. Changing apps may solve some problems but will indefinitely create others for us. All cool ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, using Revit to do a garage? Kind of filling a hand basin with a fire hose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True ! but he might also be using a simple garage as an example of one of the problems he is having with using CA. We all know that is not a valid reason alone to jump ship. We all have a right to make choices about that CAD tools we will use for our work. So that’s up to him because I am sure he will get frustrated when he sees how much extra time it will take to do a simple job in R rather than CA.

It’s almost always user error for these kinds of issues. Not that Chief doesn’t have issues, but this isn’t one of them, I’m willing to bet on it. Although, when using the save as method over and over a million times there “may” be instances where a “ghost” room definition can affect an exterior wall, and other ghost-in-the-machine issues. That’s why Chief advises using a template plan instead of the s.a.m. method. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
