  1. kitchen backsplash red1.jpg

    I created a new material and sized it accordingly.   When I select the material it comes out different then what it is and is only using a certain portion of the material.  Attached are two pictures where one is correct and predictable and the other is the problem.  Somehow it made the backsplash into two pieces which has me stumped?  Anyone who can tell me what I did to create this would be greatly appreciated.   I found nothing usual about the backsplash when I open up the cabinet in materials.

  2. Is there a work around in Home Designer Architectural 2021 to create a rope lighting effect.  I see that Pro might have this, but not in Designer? 

  3. Well, thank you for your final findings of that I cannot do this in Architectural 2021, thought I was just plain stupid or ?? and glad I did not try to redo the entire front facade, as that took a lot of work to get to this stage.  I am okay with what I have, it's good enough, but if there was a way, I would do it as I am now doing the fine detail work as I see it.  I really appreciate all of the help you have given me in all of my problems; I do not plan to do this past this one project of rebuilding my fire loss home, so people like me, I think, just want a fast and simple answer.  I have spent over 2,000 hours so far on Home Designer (slow learner), so it's not like I haven't done some homework, just sometimes it's "just tell me the answer". like you just did.

  4. I used an arch doorway (Tambour Arch); but that does not have the molding option that I need to give the look of the original house?  I tried a wall with an arch doorway; but again that does not have any molding options; so I still do not understand what you or Solver is stating; I am sure that you are able to get the look since you did it, just everything you have me try does not work for me.. I would  attached is my backup file; but this blog only allows 25 K and my file is over 100.

  5. You lead me to believe that I would have to upgrade to get this done, now you are saying to just use walls?  I get that you want me to learn, but you could have just said that; because now with what I have already done, I am not going to delete all of the detail work that I did and rebuild the entire front with walls and doorways, I will just live with what I have.

  6. I must be really dumb; but I could not find anything that would put a round arch trim like you were able to do: and yes I did delete the microwave.  I went to moldings, doors and nothing would take because there is only a doorway, not a door?  Where should I look?

  7. You stated that my terrain is on the wrong floor, where do I look to see where it is set to, where do I set the floor as I do not remember setting the floor?  How do you know which floor is the "right" floor since you state it can be set to any floor?   What will I gain from deleted the terrain and rebuilding to set it to the 1st floor?  I just remember having days of working on the terrain just to get it to look normal and if I am not going to gain much, I can live with it as it is?  Thanks for the advice

  8. Can you give me more insight as to how the program sees the terrain that you would set this to the 1st floor; as logic would be the ground( terrain), foundation, 1st floor, 2 nd floor, attic, roof?  Also why if this is an option, why it cannot be just changed?  What would " build terrain" again do?
