*** I see you said Pro 2021 *** Answers often depend on which title (Suite, Pro etc) and version (2018, 2019 etc) you are using. You can help everyone by adding that info to your signature (see below for how to turn them on) by clicking on your user name at the top right of the page, click Account Settings, then Signature on the left. Doing so makes it always available, and keeps others from having to hunt for it. And, turn on signature display too. ---- Resources for self help: The built in Help System (always a good place to start) Getting Started Knowledge Base YouTube Home Designer - Getting Started - Setting Preferences and Defaults Watch on YouTube: http://youtu.be/s-TcAHsiMjg?hd=1

What part has you stumped? If you have a 2nd floor, make a room there with a short ceiling. Create another room inside that one with no roof and a tall ceiling.

I'd send the plan in to support. https://support.chiefarchitect.com/

Slowdowns are sometimes a result of a symbol, or several symbols. The symbols available within the program are optimized, but ones sourced elsewhere may not be. Unfortunately, Home Designer does not have the tools to identify the problem. Does it just "get better", or does it go back to normal? Your computer may also make a difference. If it meets but does not exceed the minimum requirements, you may see a slowdown.

You will need to direct questions like this to the people at Chief Architect.

Does this happen will all plans?

Already available in Pro.

Export/Import, or copy the User Catalog file from one to the other.
-
Install them just like you did with Architectural.

You can help us by using a Vector View camera as it shows edge lines making things like ceiling planes easier to see.

Switch to Vector View and take a couple more screen captures. Vector View almost always works best for images to be posted here -- makes it much easier to see problems like this.

One of my early frustrations with the software was having to tap the spacebar to exit from whatever mode I was in. So much can be done with the mouse only. I upgraded to a mouse with programmable buttons and set one to send a spacebar keystroke. Problem solved.

No idea what you want to do. A couple of images might help.

Not that I know of. When I create or import a symbol using Chief Premier, I can set some sizing options, but they are limited, Home Designer does not have that ability. Symbols stretch uniformly.
-
Since you have Pro, and this is such a simple roof, use manual roof planes. You can auto build, but manual is really easy.

Not in Home Designer. You could use a Custom Backsplash set to Cut Finish Layers, but you would need to place one for each wall, and the corners won't look correct. Use a Wall Covering to simulate a base with a different material
