What are the best software alternatives out there?

Thanks. I was able to try this out with a cable. Would be nice if one could connect wirelessly.

Is there a way to view a Home Designer Pro 3D view on Meta Quest 3? If so, how does this work?

Jo_Ann here is a picture of the project to date. Wouldn't want you to think I'm a slacker.

I only fool with this occasionally. This is a hobby. I have the stairwell completed, but for some reason the stairs do not seem to end up in the proper place.

Here's a cross section of the stairs. I plan to convert to brick stairs. I need a landing at the bottom and 1-2 steps to the lower level. I can't seem to place the bottom step at the lower level.

I’ve tried this and the stairs always appear too high. It’s as if they revert to the main level. They appear one level above where I want them to originate.

I'm using Home Designer Pro 2023. I can't seem to get the stairs to draw on the basement level. When I try to draw the stairs from the basement patio to the patio on the main floor the stairs are placed at the level of the main floor rather than starting at the basement level. I've tried changing the floor level to no avail. I don't find any place to change the height of the stairs when I open the stair object. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?

Would it be possible for you to post the file that you used to make this drawing?

Jo_Ann, I guess what I am asking is what method you used to form the stairwell? Did you use foundation walls, polyline solids or slabs possibly?

I had a guy help with the plan a few years ago and he used Chief Architect to do some of the drawings. The mulled windows are large fixed windows. I like what you have done in the picture. Can you show me how you did this? Also, there's a landing at the bottom of the stairs and one step down further to the stairwell.

I think this file will work. Hopefully, it can be unzipped. Thanks for your patience.Untitled 1.zip

How do you send a direct message on this forum?

I see the file I uploaded has no data. I'm not sure what I have done wrong. I sent the file to ZIP and sent the file in this format, but when I try to extract the computer says there is no data. Any suggestions?
