Hi Eric, I love your videos! I have a question though..., I'm trying to design a one story country home with dormers, and a wrap around porch, I cannot figure out how to do the roofs on the porch. Could you do a tutorial on this? I could send you a sample picture?
thank you!
Do you offer services I'm a builder almost done plan multiple 12s and having issues
Thanks Eric for the tutorial on this. Keep up the great work
Thanks, will do!
Lots of tricks in this video! Very good
how to put it on ceiling?
Why does my hinge door have 2 doors automatically? Can I change it?
thankyou.
Great video. I never knew one could actually get creative in Chief, thought Chief is all about the automatic ride. I'm a Revit guy but ever since I saw Chief it was love at first site for, now I'm really thinking of divorcing Revit or maybe marry the two of em. Is it possible to import say a revit model like window into Chief and actually use it as a Chief object, or will it easier to create the window in sketchup (which I know Chief supports very well) and the import it into Chief? Please if you can is it possible to make a video about this, without the moldings. Also do you have an email I can use to send you the window type I'm hoping to create in Chief?
Can't get CA15 to do this. Wish it was this simple.
This was extremely helpful, I’ve been trying to find this exact video for over a week now! Thanks for sharing.
Why would they remove the option to view both sides in temporary dimensions..? Makes no sense
Eric, I am having difficulty changing the roof trusses from flat ceiling to slopped ( Shed style Roof). The 3D view seems correct but the cutaway or back clipped shows a flat ceiling instead of slopped flat trusses. I have tried in vain to find something to guide me. We are trying to set the trusses between the ICF walls
Step by step guide please
Thanks Eric, good one! tried out a variation to your method. 1. Drew a line and made it parallel to roof pitch 2 Point to point moved the line to the apex of the window 3. Drew another line from top of window side up to the parallel line, opened it's species, ticked line length. 4. Deducted that length from the measurement, (apex of window to apex of roof) Thanks again for paving the way!
Any help on this? I'm having a big problem adding a garage at a 45 degree angle. Every time I attach it, the program moves the end gable over which causes the ridge line to turn.
Hi, can I email you? I have some basic questions about Chief Architect. Thanks
Thanks
Wao you help me a lot with this tutorial to insert a hole in the counter top, do you think you can help me to insert a parabolic light fixture 48x24 and 3" deep I try to do the light symbol with the hole in a ceiling automatically. lake the sink make the hole in the counter but can not get it.
Great explanation and thank you for moving at a pace that a beginner can follow and keep up.
Hi Eric, I just discovered your UA-cam chaneel a couple of days ago. You have some great tutorials! Funny thing, i first started using Chief Architect way back, just to do plans for basement finishing and kitchen remodels. Then I got into AutoCad and Revit, and even SketchUp. Then I (re) discovered Chief Architect again and found out that there's so many more possibilities with Chief Architect then I realized.
Nice tutorial, thank you!
What if I have multiple ceiling levels? Its all screwy. Honestly the worst system for making roofs in any software I've ever used.
Just select that level and de select Foundation Wall.
Thanks - is there a way to do that with a group of objects?
It works with multiple objects selected.
This is so niche but so useful. I hope this is the solution to someone's problem.
Importing a CAD drawing into X10 via DXF... Chief changes inches to "double inches". For example, 23'2" 1/4" is displayed, but should be 23' 2 1/4". Notice, first of all, there isn't a space between the 23 feet and inches, and there are double inch marks... ( " ) after the number 2, as well as after the 1/4. Is there something that can be changed in the setup, or a macro that can be created, or a good way to fix this?
Please ask on ChiefTalk chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/
Will do. I really like your informative videos on UA-cam. Great work!@@EricOnChiefArchitect
How did you come up with roof now showing shingles in camera view? Also walls not showing siding?
3D>Toggle Patterns
That's great. Thank you Sir.
I love that dixie accent!!! I need lessons!
I've been learning CA for a couple weeks now. I spend so much time fighting the program. It shouldn't be this difficult.
What a saviour.Thanks Eric
Any idea how I could build something similar except have it on piers? I want to design something like a shed but it needs to have minimum 30” from ground elevation to the floor height. I can get everything where I need it except the walls/roof. Thank you.
Articles/videos on the Chief/Home Designer web sites. For help, ask on HomeTalk or ChiefTalk.
*Promosm* 🙌
Looking for the button that turns off patterns in the technical illustration mode, which you used at 1:08. I"m using HDP. I don't see it.
3D Menu
Thanks, Eric. Very helpful.
hey,,,,,,,please would mind just sparing 30mins of your time to take me/us through mulled windows design ,,,got serious problem,,,,or a detailed explained tutorial would assist with few examples in windows and adding lites ,,,making your own windows design......in your same video tutorial in mulled windows bet it was to fast and wasnt able to graps anything ,,,please assist my humble request
The Chief website already has videos showing the basics. If you need more help, ask on ChiefTalk and someone will help you.
Great job on these videos! I’m a visual learner and love watching people solve problems. Learning soo much. Thank you
Way to much work as good as it is. If there is a big enough demand for this style of splayed window frames, CA should be able to give us the option of doing this within the Window DBX under window frame, Option button>Int or Ext: Skewed: On/off, Degrees from vertical and horizontal center planes> Top: Y/N, Bottom: Y/N, L-Side: Y/N, R-Side: Y/N. Thickness would default to window frame thickness. Then Material in Materials. Casing would/should work as it does now. For now, your way I suppose is as good as it gets. I played with this for a while prior to seeing your video and deemed it a waste of time, (no disrespect to you), I settled for just a filled solid color background 2D block for use in plan view. Then I did a detail in 3D Sketch Up Pro model imported to CA just showing a generic representation in 3D of the finished product referenced from plan view. Till CA catches up with all requests, work-around's is all we have. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks for sharing, is there an option to make it glued to the windows, similar to window casing so when I can the parameters of the windows the angle moves with it?
Not that I know of
Please share this home design full video
THIS DRIVES ME BATTY! Why can't I get temp measure to go inside to inside? I have all interior walls and there's no obvious setting for interior to interior.
Thank you
Hi Eric. Would be nice if you could do a house tutorial from scratch
Thank you ❤
I have a drawing in chief X12 its 4000 sqft and i want to scale it down by 20 % to 3200 sqft. How do i get it done
Ask on ChiefTalk for the best help.
You can just drag the cabinets along the flat wall to intersect with the angled cabinets, as of X15. Not sure about previous versions.
Thank you
lot of Love ❤ and Respect
This has been soooo helpful Eric. Soo much better learning how to do what you did. I would not have been able to reproduce that without it. Lots of great pointers from an experienced pro too! Also: 1) You were right on the car turning radius --> adjusted that. 2) Added a bump out on the side of the kitchen area. 3) 12ft is what the client requested, on the gulf coast, so high ceilings are the norm. Will see what happens when we get the cost to build...🤷 4) The moldings on porch weren't there for any particular reason hah 🤦! 5) I did make moldings around the porch to cover the end of that floor vs foundation area. Several videos on that (if you got any tips...). 6) Great idea on the foyer ceiling being dropped down, makes it more intimate when you walk in. 7) Great idea on bringing that porch over to the other wall, soo much better of a design. Thanks for your assistance and coaching. This has been a great starting out experience with this software and community!☺ Looking forward to learning more!!
