Bruce and all of us have a right to our opinions and to state them
publicly.
Whether they are right , wrong or agreeable is secondary and
inevitably Human individual decision and opinion only.
I do not agree with Bruce's assessment of X1 or 10. I do not care why
we disagree. I don't feel the need to defend or persuade.
I look forward to X2 because I enjoy Chief in all of its versions as
a creative tool that gives me joy and a living I love.
That others denigrate it, criticize it is a fact of Life; I can only
say that I do not live my life through or upon the opinions of others.
I affirm the Human Rights for all of being able to state one's
opinions, practice one's religion and support a political philosophy
of choice without physical duress from others.
This is the first I've heard about x2, I have x1 and don't use it much anymore. I use another CAD system which is much quicker for me. As for x2, it seems to...
Bruce, I am always curious. What is the other CAD you use? I do renovations and find Chief 10 not particularly helpful when doing as build on a 100 year old...
Andy, I use an old version of Autocad, but I'm going to upgrade to the newer one. I find that 3d is not very time effective, especially when you have go in...
Just can't agree with you less. You draw it in 2d the 3d is there, the elevations are there. In Autocad You are 1 removed from using a pencil. My guess is...
What about when the client changes his mind? Drawing elevations in autocad means that you have to go and change the plan and the elevations. In Chief you...
Steve, I personally couldn't disagree with you more wholeheartedly! Well, except that I will definitely agree with you concerning autoCad/autodesk (ever since...
Line weights are a critical part of any architectural drawing and set of construction documents. The CAD side of Chief is very, very poor and delivers...
I must say you have spent no time with chief, have not done the tutorials, are so ingrained in the way you do things that you probably should just ride out...
Dear Bob Speer, Thank you so much for your sarcastic and ill-informed response, so typical of people who think they're being attacked when someone doesn't...
Bruce, Thank you for putting into a calm and logical response to what I have stewing and sputtering over since I read Mr. Speer's comments. I have been...
Dear Bruce, First off When someone has a problem they need help with in CA this -- is a great forum.If you had simply said you were having problems with line...
Ted: all great points...... i concurr in every one ... except that i will continue to use Chief as my construction drawing program. We own AutoCad Lt '98,...
Hi Ted I will have to reply to couple of things. I have used the layout being disconnected from update to my advantage more than once. It is a workaround - but...
Bruce and Ted: I have also been at this for a while and started on the drawing board. Does Chief have problems in some areas? Yes, but then what CAD program,...
Larry, You, as a very long-standing member of this group, in my opinion, have always been a facts-only, neutral opinion, and generous knowledgable support to...

Hi Dave, FIX THE BUGS FIRST. Well said and perhaps a little reminder to the newer members of this informal forum, that we (oldies) originally set up this...
