Happy New Year to all on the forum.

Happy Birthday, Lon.

I have just had a little try myself, and it does seem to be working as expected. 'Snow' brought up digikits related to snow as the image shows. Also tried 'wood' and 'tea' and relevant kits came up.

I'm no longer much use at remembering the  technical possible work-arounds. I do know that sometimes a 'Control' plus Start (Press the Control key as you start up CraftArtist) can sort issues, but if you have any saved custom Brushes, Graphic Styles, Stencils, etc., they will go unless you have gone into the AppData files and made a copy to re-use once you have things working again. I have got instructions I saved as to how to do this, if you need them.

A lovely tranquil piece of video. I know many shun graveyards because of what they are, I suppose, but I always rather enjoy a slow walk around, reading the gravestones and getting an idea of the social history they reveal. I'll be doing a lot more of that once we get the house move over, and I have time to devote to the family tree research again. That will include going around the cemeteries/graveyards where those before me are laid to rest.

Found on the Punny Pete Facebook page.

Hi Lon, thanks for the suggestion. I've not got into the AI stuff as yet. There was a talk I went to on using it for genealogy research but even then, they were saying that you have to be fairly precise in your query, and you still have to check the results to validate, so it seems almost as much hard work as just getting on with it. I'll probably get around to it one day, but only when I have lots of free time to spare, which isn't the case right now.

My current plan seems to be most viable - printed out enlarged copies made in CA2 of the house plans (recognising that their scale is only approximate), and as I already have the measurements for the various items, I'm just popping those in prospective spots with arrows each way. Just really need an idea of what could go where.

Hiya, Lon.

I'm not using CraftArtist very much at all now, as I went back to hands-on crafting quite a while ago. But I do use it to make labels for the Hubby's honey jars, and when the buzzies have enough excess for him to extract we just need to update the Lot. No. and Best Before date details. On the whole, it seems OK, but can be prone to occasional sudden crashes. So I have become very adept at remembering to save far more frequently than I used to do.

I did try opening up a fairly recent project, also a very simple label, and for some reason, that one does keep crashing where others don't, so there must be something about that particular one that causes this.

I'm in two minds whether to use CA2 or DrawPlus to make up a floor plan for our future house move. I want to have our many bookcases parked directly in the right spot to make things easier for us, so this is a way of figuring things out beforehand. Normally I'd use CA2 but am a bit wary of the crashing possibility, and you can guarantee I'll get so caught up in the process I will forget to save, and perchance get very frustrated...

Nope, here in the Midlands, it sounds like car key, hence why I found the above an amusing play on words. My cousin, ex-Parachute Regiment, so very familiar with the term , from the Yorkshire/County Durham border, says it the same way.

The Cambridge Dictionary gives an audio of how it is pronounced in English and American. The American version sounds closer to tacky, but I'm a Brit, not a Yank.
