You can set this in the Rail Specification, Rail Style, Horizontal Offset and Newels/Balusters, Bottom Offset.

In example 2 and 3 the interior of the walls are not in line. Example 1, I replicated you issue when I used a half wall which marks it as a railing. I unchecked railing which makes it a full height wall, but then selected the top of the wall in camera view and pulled it down which corrected the missing drywall.

Thanks Keith, I didn't have the Kohler catalog downloaded in my 2021.

I don't see any medicine cabinets in any libraries. You can make one from a wall cabinet and use CTRL to position it in a wall niche. Change your cabinet door to a slab and the material to glass.

Don't forget your cricket between the sanctuary and the bell Tower. Here is a link to a short Chief video on the Cricket if it works with HDP. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/1597/creating-a-roof-cricket.html?playlist=95

Here is an example I did, sorry I couldn't make a video showing how so I hope this helps. You need this wall to be Gable to get rid of the hip roof you have. Delete this roof plane. Edit the main roof plane.

Sorry for not giving any details to my example but it was late and past my bedtime!! Step to my example 1: Draw 1st Floor plan 2: Draw Basement at 120” below 1st floor 3: Build Terrain with subfloor 12” above terrain and elevation lines set at 0” at the front and back 4: Add terrain region in front of basement garage set at -120” 5: Draw retaining walls in the shape of driveway Added 6: Added terrain regions at 0” and shaped to match retaining walls and around the house 7: Drew terrain feature for driveway 8: Adjusted Lower terrain region to gat driveway even with basement floor 9: Changed fill colors to show different regions

Are you looking for something like this?

I only have the trial version of Suite 2023, so I tried to make some notes to help you out. It's a matter of setting up the walls for the roof, especially the back sunroom for the upper pitch. I built the foundation, and the garage and sunroom floors came back. I hope this gets you on the right track.

Can you post your plan and maybe someone can figure out what’s going on. I tried to replicate your situation but wasn’t able to. Also, what version of Home Designer are you using?

Pella Cottage Sash.calibz Try this Pella window and see if it's close enough to what you're looking for. I couldn't get the Pella Catalog for HD but was able to save this one to my user catalog in Chief x15 and export it. Hopefully it will open for you.

I don't know what version of HD you have, but some of your textures were missing when I downloaded your plan and the missing textures said HD Suite 2020. My example is HD Pro 2020 so I hope Suite will work the same. Since you started you plan on an angle your floors aren't drawing on that angle. In Plan view go to Edit, Edit Area, Edit Area (All Floors), Marquee select everything then go to transform replicate objects and rotate -15 degrees. I hope this works for you.

Thanks Eric, my brain was thinking automatic.

You can't do it automatically, but after framing you can resize and delete the plates in a framing camera view. The only problem is you can't turn auto wall framing back on. It wouldn't be to bad if your just doing a few walls dividing a Townhouse or Apartment.

I downloaded the trail version of 2024 Architectural and there is no option to dimension to window and door centers, only interior wall centers.

Is this what you're looking to do? 

How about a cabinet. a 3/4" thick wall and a 3/4" double door? 

You can do it through the Rail Specification.

There was a post on May 2nd with a similar issue, no good results other than manually extended the gable wall.

Scott, I’ve had this happen a lot when you have auto rebuild roofs on and mark the one room no flat ceiling. You can drag the attic wall over and cover it up but then it hangs down in the room so you have to adjust the bottom of the wall also.

What piers are you changing, the house foundation piers or the deck piers?

If the kitchen is in the slab section and the wood floor section, that’s probably what Is causing it. If so you might have to use a room divider and split the kitchen where the floor is different.

You don’t happen to have the room above marked as garage?

Check your Basement Garage floor structure and make sure floor under this room is checked. This is what I get if it's not checked.

It is according to what type of structure you're wanting to draw; I did this in Pro 2024 Trial version, the walls were setup in Wall type, but roof was mostly manual rafters and roof blocking for the purlins. There are more options, and you can do better job in Chief Premier.
