Zahida

Good afternoon John,

I do use it for kitchens. Best for more information look on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qm0I8zjmtEY

Good evening 

I wanted some information on upgrading from a Home Design Pro 2019. I wanted to know what would the difference between the Home Design Pro and the upgraded software?

Thank you soooo much David for the video clip. It's made it really easy to understand.

Good afternoon

I have 2 questions.

1) I am trying to record what I have worked on to my client but I'm getting an error.

2) How can I change the size of the Subway tiles to a 4x12 as I have been trying but not quite sure it's right as I need to give the material list and don't want to get it wrong and lose my 2nd ever client.

Please help

I was able to reproduce one of your posted pics by toggling OFF textures, as Solver suggested you might have done.

Thank you for showing me this as I will now keep it in mind that I can take a look here if I have further issues.

I went into edit preference reset option and reset toolbars to factory defaults

and reset other preferences to factory defaults but the Toggle pattern still grey and not turning on.

However I did manage to add the prefered backsplash that I needed after resetting the preference.

Thank you once again now that this issue has been resolved onto the next one :-)

Done

Please see attachment 

If you have seen the video clip which I had explained my issues, I had used this tile. 

You're most welcome to take over my laptop and see for yourself by add any tile from CA.

No I didn't remove the SDXC from (D)

Would suggest that I redownload the CA software and see if many of my issues might be resolved??

Nope still the same. So grateful for your help

Yes I can BUT look at the pattern that I chose it isn't there on plane color.

Sadly it didn't work :-( same issue.

I had deleted the pattern from my library and re-do it but I'm still having the same problem.

(Adding the jpeg file to the library, and then painting it to the backsplash, works like it's supposed to (when I tried it on your plan).

The only thing I can suggest, is to delete the pattern from your library and then begin over (re-add the jpeg to the library).  Maybe that will fix whatever went wrong).

I had tried what you suggested but in my program it's showing nothing there. Ahhhh

(The soffit:  If you zoom in real close (2d view) you can see the outline of the soffit (you changed it to a light yellow, and that's why you can't see it).

Open the tool display for the 2d view, and change it back to the original grey).

I don't want a step for the other side where I am using the soffit I need to fill in the gap. 

(Why are you using a soffit for the step?  Copy/paste the single step that you already have, position it, and it will automatically wrap).

Thank you 

Hi

Would someone please please help me with the following issues.

I have made video clips explaining what I need help with. I cannot explain in typing it all out.

Truly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

Good evening David

Actually I'm not looking for drapery or symbols but I needed to know if I can do elevations in Home Designer Pro 2019 of the pictures that I had attached 

previous email. 

Thanks

Good evening

Can anyone tell me how I can draw elevations and not have to draw all the floor plan??

I have a project that requires windows for different parts of the house for a client who needs to know

what her drapery would look like before she has it stitched.

I've tried looking on different website but couldn't find any help.

Good afternoon David

Thank you for your guidance.

I had searched within Home Designer Website using different words and I wasn't having much luck and this is why I ask for help by posting my questions.

I do hope Home Designer Website don't mind.

Hi

It’s me again Zahida. I have 3 questions: -

1)      How can I make a display cabinet which is full height with glass door?

2)      How can I make a kitchen Island with a load bearing wall?

3)      Storage room under the staircase?

Awesome This was is wayyyy easier than doing copy paste separate cabinets like did. Truly appreciate you taking time and making the video

Hi David

I couldn't do exactly the way you showed in you video clip. What I did was make 3 separate cabinets and inserted the appliances in that way.

I will now try to make the whole cabinet unified. 

There was a warming drawer in the architectural folder and here's me shouting it whilst watching your video "There is there is."

David this isn't going to be the end of you see me. I will be asking many other questions but for now 

CA First Floor (Rands House).plan

Truly appreciate everyone guiding on this new road.

David I don't have the words to thank you. You doing this video helped me.

And you are right it was a Warming Drawer, Oven and then Microwave.

I hope I'll become an a pro one day 

My name is Zahida and this is my first-floor plan. I have some knowledge of how to draw a floor plan as I know a little about AutoCAD and a software I use called Minutes Matter.

I am finding the Minutes Matter is taking too much of my time as so does the AutoCAD. I have to first draw the floor plan and then the elevations separately. But with Minutes Matter software when I did the elevation I could choose and render as I went along. 

I had to find a software which saved time and not have to do the elevations separately and I came across Chief Architect. Now I have purchased the Home Designer Pro 2019.

I have to learn Chief Architect fast as possible can as I have a client that I have to impress to get the job.

The tutorial videos are helpful but it doesn't cover the little hiccups. As you can see I am trying to insert the warming drawer and on top of that I need to add a oven and microwave with will be stacked on top of each other but in separate compartments.

I’m also having problems building the second floor. Please would you take a look at my works and see where I am going wrong and please guide me.  

I see there in now way that I can send you my Chief Architect file for you take a look at.
