    Fix roof

    This obviously was not "solving" so Was this meant to be spiteful? Or is it just your nature to be obtuse?

    Fix roof

    No doubt, but come on, a simple gable roof default is not an option? Gable roofs are incredibly common and simple to design. It is an abject software design failure by design. I am not here to start an internet war. I realize I have been dooped and now I am moving on. Thanks for time everyone

    Fix roof

    Seems hard to believe changing roof pitches is an "upgrade". $300 to change a roof pitch is just short of stealing

    Fix roof

    You sir are correct. According to the print there are two different roof pitches, 8/12 and 12/12. I set the two wider walls to 8:12 When I try to change the two narrower sections to 12:12 I get the error. I am doing it in 3D view by clicking on the gable wall and changing pitch.

  22. Thanks Solver What I am trying to do is define the kitchen, dining and living room but there are no walls seperating them
  23. I'm back!!! Been gone forever but looking to design another house, My first most basic question is how do I define rooms in an open floor plan? obviously this effects the materials and that is what I need.
  24. Ok now I finally figured out what my problem is. All I had to do is ask my and she gave me a whole list. Unfortunately none of them had anything to do with this drawing The issue is ( i think) is when i create the roof it adds to the walls so I get a full second floor when really the the short end of the walls should really be at floor level. and therefore I would not need the cricket Home Designer Architectural 2018 build 19. This is what I am trying to recreate so how do I now fix my roof? Do I have to start with deleting all the second floor interior walls? Thanks again for all your help
  25. Should just be a full gable like the red line
