447Debbie Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I am now viewing my plan file on my laptop (I moved the license). What file do I have to copy over to my laptop so that my plan can find all the materials I specified in my plan when I was running it on my desktop? Or is there an easier way to do this?

447Debbie Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 Backing up the entire plan worked. Thanks. I'll check out the link too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
447Debbie Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 I can't find where my material is stored though, so I can't move it over to the laptop and invoke it on anything in the plan that didn't already contain it when I did the backup entire plan.

These materials will (should) be available as normal -- just not in your library. One of the articles in the KB link is moving the software to a new computer which will tell you about moving library files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
447Debbie Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 I'll have to try that but it didn't work for my cabinets. I think it's because the material I'm looking for, clearcoat Walnut, was downloaded from here as part of the Barker Cabinets Catalog https://www.barkercabinets.com/Chief-Architect-3d-Kitchen-Planner-s/365.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
