    If you go to this page:
    http://www.chiefarchitect.com/training/cdseries.html there are two lists of training videos. One is the standard list that comes with each program, and one is the list of the seven videos cd set. There are in pdf format.
    After you open one you can either save it to your computer or print it and then you'll have it to look up topics that you want to view videos about.
    I did this and have it printed by cd list and by topic list.
    I keep this printed list with my videos and use it to find the subjects I want to review.
    Hope this helps.

    You can also do a "Search" here using "Plan Footprint and or Plot Plan or Site Plan" and get more data.

    a while back, I posted some material for doing plots...a couple of animated gifs (right click on the gifs and save them to your HD, use media player to open them and you can pause and stop them as needed) and a pdf file..

    look here:

    The best instructions for doing a site plan I've ever found are in the book, "Working With Chief Architect Level II" by Star Training Institute.
