The Fastest Cross Section System in Chief Architect X15

[@JTDesign1]

Wow. That is fast. I'm looking at this after spending 2 days drawing details for a current project.

[@binkpear]

Does this work with double wall systems? I use a 15" wall consisting of an 11" double wall and then a vertical 2x4 strapped wall... Love the enthusiasm! I had to watch the opening a couple of times to soak it in.

[@hazimalwaali9507]

Great. Do you sell them?

[@rabbittdesign8482]

This is part of the Pro Plan available on my site. This is also a video about a much older version. They are much faster and easier to work with today

[@hazimalwaali9507]

@ any advice regarding the new version details, how to purchase them?

[@rabbittdesign8482]

@@hazimalwaali9507 Yes this is in My Pro Plan Template available on my website which link is always on the channel

[@TigerNgtMare]

That's very impressive

WTF did I just see?!!!! I'm so near the retirement door that I wonder if I can comprehend what I just saw...OK, I get it, macros do wonderful things, but I had no idea this could be the end result of a well functioning set up. The only issue I have is that the code differences between the US and Canada are actually far more than I care to mention. I also do a lot of work in earthquake plagues regions of Canada's West Coast. Can these be modified enough to work? I obviously need to learn more about this system. Where the hell does one start? And what's this discord you speak of?

This is so cool. Does this affect the 3D models as well or just 2D views?

[@rabbittdesign8482]

This is just for CAD details

[@JTDesign1]

Rene, I meant to ask you a related question, I've been using CA for at least a decade now, and one of the hold overs from my Autocad days in line weights, for both the screen and printing. I'd been using it for so long I cannot remember why, but my line weights are half of the default CA style and yours. They create just the right amount of thickness when I generate a PDF, but these thicker line weights that you and CA default to, cause me fits. I'm thinking I need to make the change, but I cannot recall what needs to change?

[@rabbittdesign8482]

Id have a hard time believing you use half the line weight as mine...are you using my pro layout and pro plan with the sheet size I spec'd? Or did you change it through importing defaults where you may have missed something? Line weights can come from many different places is why i ask, from layer sets to individual layers to drwaing sheet size and weight settings to layout sheet size and weight settings including individual cad detail sheet sizes and settings. FYI I use a complete different set of line weight settings from chief. I will say you are seeing thicker line weights in this video because these designate continuations from a section cut

[@JTDesign1]

Like I said this is a hold over from ACAD, where I had to specify colors as line weights, I had an issue with my print company when I switched and I used the CA defaults. Drawings were big fat lines. So I switched to very thin lines at 1 pixel for patterns, to 10 pixels for heavy. CA starts at 18 and goes up from there. Right now my PDF's look great.@@rabbittdesign8482

how do you access these details?

[@rabbittdesign8482]

This is a system built into the Pro Plan which I sell on my website

[@felipeaguilar7343]

How do can I get your details.

[@rabbittdesign8482]

They are part of my pro plan package: www.rabbittdesign.net/shop/p/x15-pro-template

[@levig8261]

Can you give me a link on how to build this so i can use it for my layout plans

[@rabbittdesign8482]

This is a very complex system to build and requires a great number of macros and coordinating pieces to build. Easily 400-500 hours into the development of this system. I do not teach on how to build it but you can always buy the complete system. It is in the Pro Plan within the shop at rabbittdesign.net/shop

[@susandepro6816]

Rabbit I'm a builder using x16 99 percent done but now I have to keep having to one hour it with a chief personal what do you charge and how do I get a hold of you respectively

[@rabbittdesign8482]

from my website you can contact me or at [e-mail]

[@malcolmnex9297]

The way to do them any faster is have Rene aka The Godfather do them for you. LOL! The Godfather just makin' it do what it do! Malcolm form Oakland

Bro…

[@rabbittdesign8482]

LOL yes?

How do you access this detail system?

[@rabbittdesign8482]

@@paulrector1870 this is in my proplan. Ther is a quick link to it in the sidebar of the template. Otherwise you could find it in the project browser under cad details. I show a bit of this in the live video on this channel published this last week
