  1. Ok, I thought I did do a refresh, but will check. I am not sure about the TBB styles, I will have to look up to see if they are indeed that symbol type or even how to specify them as that. When I get home from work this evening I will post the sample file.
  2. I apologize if this has been addressed before. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to have my title blocks show up as an option when setting up my files. I have tried saving the title block files in the Default Libraries folder/Title Blocks folder and I have also tried putting them in the Object Styles/Title Blocks folder and they just don't show up. I have even tried placing on of the title blocks into one of the supplied Simple Title Blocks file and it doesn't show up either. I literally been having to import and edit the title blocks each time to get mine imported. Can someone please help me and shed some light on what I am doing wrong. Thank you in advance for any help/advice.
  3. Never mind, I figured it out. When you click on the viewport and then click Advanced Options, there is an option for Non fill uses Alpha Transparency. Unchecking that option gets rid of the black background in the viewport.
  4. Hello everyone. I recently upgraded to VW 2019 and I am having a problem with any viewports that I create and use a OpenGL rendering mode, the background is black. I want it to be white. I can set the viewports to any other rendering method and the backgrounds are white. Where can I change this?
  5. Well I went back into the file last night and it started working fine again. Not sure what is going on. However, I will try to reproduce the glitch and if I do I will send the file. This is very strange.
  6. Hello Everyone, So I am all of a sudden having a problem with the callout tool. If you look at the screenshot that is attached you will see one callout that reads “Foam Insulation” and then above that one that reads “2X (PER Plan) @ 16” O.C.” The problem I am having is if I go in and alter the top one the leader and arrow disappear and it ends up looking like the bottom one. What is causing this and how do I fix it? It does this on all new documents as well now. I don’t know what has changed.
  7. FYI, Nocolas, I do love InteriorCAD.
  8. Ok, I just updated it. Sorry about that guys.
  9. My signature isn't showing up.
  10. My bad. I just upgraded to 2018 and had no idea I could control that. Have never had to. Thank you!!
  11. I ended up just custom building my own system, and now have no complaints. It takes a bit of planning but I feel you will get exactly what you are looking for.
  12. Is there a way to control the exterior window trim? What I am trying to achieve is where I have no exterior trim except for at the top, see attachment. However, I would want to change the trim profile. I know I can achieve this look by physically modeling it, but wasn't sure if there was another way to achieve this.
  13. I agree, I had to go back and redo every exterior corner connection which was a lot of wasted time I could have been doing other things with the design.
  14. Using the Remove Wall Breaks tool and then rejoining worked. Thank you, RGyori. However, why doesn't this just automatically work?
  15. Don't think I did but not sure. Will have to look into that later when I get home.
  16. Is there a setting that controls the horizontal offset of a component/material? I see the vertical offset but not horizontal. It does this all the way around the structure.
  17. I added a small component to a wall style and it does not go all the way to the edges of the connecting walls. It falls short, and I am not sure what is causing this. What do I need to change to make it be continuous on all connecting walls?
  18. Thank you, Alan. Yes, I am going to get onto the Oculus development site and see what I can find as well.
  19. Hi Alan, so I am considering getting the Oculus Rift. The excel file that you created, will these same steps work for it? I want to be able to look around (track head movement) as well as move forward, back, left or right using the controller, but also be able to teleport. I am completely new to VR, but this would be great to figure out.
  20. I new it had to be something simple. Thank you.
  21. Attached is a blank file with the symbol in it. Waterfall_Counter.vwx
  22. Yes. If I edit the 2D component it says it is on the screen plan. If I edit the 3D component, it doesn't have an option for what plane it is on.
  23. Ok, I know this is a stupid question. I have done this before and now I can get it to work, no matter what I do. Help needed. I am creating a waterfall counter. I created an extrude of a path, and then created a rectangle to represent the 2D component part of the symbol I want to create. I select both and then select create symbol. When I click ok, it gives me an error and says the 3D portion of the symbol will no longer be visible in plan view. When I rotate the view in 3D the 2D rectangle is still there but the 3D disappears. What am I doing wrong? I want to be able to see the 2D portion in the top plan view and then when I rotate it disappear and only the 3D portion displays. Feeling very stupid right now.
  24. It does, just not wanting to spend $500 on a headset if one of the less expensive ones will work.
