Please note that you do not have a sub floor installed on top of your joists . That gap is for the subfloor layer.

I am contemplating getting Chief full version but thought I would check to see if anyone knew what will be added in Pro 2022 and if there is enough new things then maybe I won't need to spend the 2-3 thousand dollars to buy chief.

David I realise we are not truss engineers but shouldn't both sides of a truss be the same , I think I have wall heights etc. the same or am I missing something. Thanks for your reply.

I guess Vertical Sections are Modifiable but not Horizontal door sections.

Thanks David , I do understand that but it just didn't look right on the plans and I thought we could change the number of panels in a dr.

Why do my roof trusses frame differently from one side to the other ? J. SYLVESTER.plan

I am doing a large garage that has an Over head Garage Door 20' wide by 12' high . How do I change the number of panels on the door from 4 panels to 6 in height . I can't seem to find how to do that. 4 Panels Just don't look proper and a 12' high door would have 6 panels not 4. Thanks.

A Question , Where is the best website to get Residential Section Views and details that are modifiable to suit a particular plan. I have been searching and have found several but what do most of you use other than manually inputting the info. Thanks.

Sorry I misunderstood . That will work . Thankyou so much . Take Care

Yes I have tried that but it has to lay on top of the truss at the same angle as the roof . Like plywood on the roof.

2x4 strapping across the top of the roof trusses to receive the roof steel at the same 4/12 angle as the roof

I am drawing a pole barn style building with trusses 24" on center and Steel sheathing . It will have 2x4 strapping across the trusses and steel over that. How Do I do the 2x4 roof strapping @ 24" o.c. across the trusses.? they are 4/12 pitch. I can't seem to get it to work.

Found it , thanks for your help.

Hello Everyone , I am just getting back to it after being sick awhile and my brain isn't functioning the way it should because I know this is easy but I can't wrap my head around it. I am just starting drawings for a Florida Room on the back of a house , the trusses will have a span of 22' with a 10" raised heel for insulation sitting on 2x6 framed walls. Outside pitch is 5/12 , inside pitch is 3/12 overhangs will be left long to be trimmed on site to match existing roof. I know I found a video on how this was done pretty much but can't remember where I saw it . Any help would be appreciated , Thankyou and take care.

I just installed the new program update for HD2021 but I have no idea what was updated . Anyone have an idea what the update was ?

Got them back sir , had to reset to factory defaults . Thank you very much.

My toolbar across the top of my page has disappeared , tried clicking on toolbar and nothing happens . It was there yesterday but when I turned on this morning it isn't there.

I have contacted support , waiting for reply.

I am just downloading the trial version , Thanks David for all you do.

Anyone upgrade to HD2021 and if so what do you think ?

Hello Again . I have been working on a plan for a bit but today when I turned on HD 2020 and opened the plan I am working on it started acting strange , curser jumping all over and such and zooming in jumps . I clicked on a door that they wanted changed and everything froze , all I get is the dreaded swirling blue circle. Any one else have this issue or do I call support.

While doing a plan I think I have sent everything correctly for Dimensioning however when I add a dimension one side (arrow) snaps correctly to the framing layer the way I set it but the other side (arrow) snaps to the drywall not the framing layer (stud). What did I miss ?

I know we are not truss designers but is there a way or a tutorial on how to show Hip Roof Truss Layout in HD Pro.

Yes I figured it out David Thanks , Just another senior moment.

When I do a framing overview of my design I cannot get my sub-fascia and lookouts to show on my plan What am I missing or do I need to draw manually ? I figured it out .
