This is the answer
I received your files

The texture going to the sky or the grass is a symptom of a videocard problem. Try these steps

1 - Check the website of your video card manufacturer and update the drivers
2 - Go to the video setup on your PC (may be different for different versions of Windows and video card); for most, click on an empty part of the windows Desktop, click on Settings->Advanced->Troubleshoot). Back the accelerations slider to the left, one level each time and see if the problem dissapears

3 - Right click on the wallpaper (look for a place without icons)--> Properties--> Settings--> Advanced--> Open GL--> Compatibility Settings--> Force 16 bits--> Apply--> OK

4 - Set your video color depth at 24 or 32 bits ("true color")

5 - Go to www.microsoft.com/directx, and see what version is current and check if you have this version installed in your computer

6 - Some NVidia card users reported additional problems--> in this case change the color settings from 32 bit to 16 bit

You will find several discussions about this issue in this forum--> perform a search with the words "sky + texture"

George,

You are welcome!! :-)

I never use e cabinets or Via Cad, so I can't comment about them. Your Punch files work OK in my computer, so must be a setting related with your computer

I like your Web.page.
How are you doing with jobs we are picking up now.
We are general contractors my son's do all the work now I did the building and all the designing for the last 46 year's Now I stay in the cabinet shop right back of my house.I do a lot of custom designs for 21 builders. 18 of the builders I have been doing there custom work for 40 year's. The good thing is I design it my son's do all the work now.From start to end of the jobs.I like to do all there custom designs on there stairs. Then I build most of the stairs in the shop.My boys are trying to get me a way from building everything in the shop.I my book you can not be called custom work if you do not make it to.How can they be called custom if they don't make it all.I tell them they sure call the UPS truck the custom guy!

Hi Donna,

The bagua map is used in Feng Shui to define the elements locations. It is part of my Feng Shui article

The original Bagua in CAD (and the article) are my work :-)
George did a good job converting my Bagua in a 3D workshop Pro object
