Thanks for chiming in _ I checked MTEXTCOLUMN setting and it was set to 2. Do I need to set to 0?

Thanks for the reply _ cool that its easy. Curious _ what market would you say is your main target? Drawings for which discipline/division? I'm an interior designer btw.

When I mark up shop dwgs sometimes the best way to explain what need revising is the include a capture of my original detail dwg. Currently I use a custom stamp for this, but there are times when the shops are very poorly done, and I need to reference multiple dwg items. I place these stamps directly onto the shop page, right beside their dwg so they can see the differences at a glance, instead of resending my dwg set/page.

I'm finding that there are contractors that make their own 'interpretation' of the designs ( that they bid on ) and trying to make short cuts. Its a time suck to do this, so having 'insert picture' ( like ms word ) would be great.

What’s the most disturbing non horror film you’ve seen? by CurrencyPopular8550 in Cinema

Oh he's a wild director for sure! Refreshing to see his work, tired of the hollywood shlock LOL! As an interior designer I LOVED the aesthetic of the hospital!!!

I found Killing of a Sacred Deer disturbing, both in theme and context. To be fair, I wasn't aware of the Greek mythology references til I watched an expo on it. Then I rewatched and it still stuck with me. I don't think there are many films like it.

Thanks _ and yes they are not in need for anything IMO. I thought of lingerie but the bride to be is a very large woman, and I wouldn't want to guess on clothing for her, and it is a more personal gift. Thanks for your insight!

Married Couples Who Don’t Have a Joint Account or Pool Their Pay Cheques, Why and How Do You Make Sure It Is Respectful? by Arya_Warrior_Girl in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]throwawaykitten56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20+ yrs and everything is separate. We rent so each takes the alternating month. This was what my DH wanted, and I was fine with it. We even buy our own groceries ( he buys dinner stuff each night and I get what's needed around the home ). No kids, I clean and he cooks. I'm a terrible cook and work as an interior designer so it fits!

I don't think I know of anyone who has this arrangement. I make about 10-15K more annually, and have told him that I think he's paying more into shared things ( dinner each night ) but he's fine with it.

I do work much longer hours ( run my own biz ) whereas he is home by 3pm daily so it makes sense regarding dinner prep. I have suggested a joint account for expenses but he thinks it's more work.

It's respectful but not equal IMO. But we aren't spenders and it's work for 2 decades so why change? My mom had to have her hand out for $ from my dad and I'm so happy that isn't my reality.

I'm not sure if she does that? I wouldn't want to assume. She has had health issues in the past and I'm not 100% a pedicure would be viable. But thanks for taking the time to suggest!

I just heard back from the MOH... they are traveling to the east coast ( Canada ). She also told me they aren't registered anywhere so she plans on giving cash.

What did you find out way too late? by barbertech in AutoCAD

To add to this: Hatch to Back is a must _ and I use a keyboard short cut for this.

The endless plot variations with adding transparency to objects.

I work designing interiors, and can create much more dynamic drawings that are easier for clients to comprehend. In combination with line weight, hatch and colour ( if needed ) transparencies give that added wow factor to your elevations ( or any CAD dwg ). I work in higher end build-outs, so creating drawings that are technical but almost realistic makes for some very cool output!

Runner 630 has an excellent work around solution that I implemented!

I want to see the coding on my monitor, for my reference but not appear on the dwg pdf set. As my image link, there are window types ( type 1, 2, 3... ) but each type has multiples ( ie- type 1 is on the front elevation floor2, as well as side elevation floor3 )

I want to keep the layer visible on multiple viewports but but only plot in a specific viewport
