This one shows starting without dimensions.

Copy the walls involved to a new plan, close it and attach. Add some notes/arrows etc in the plan so someone knows exactly what you want. I'm not sure what the problem is. You should be able to pick up additional points off of the 3'-4 dimension string. I'm heading out to a job, but will check back later today.

That was quick, and welcome to HomeTalk. A couple of tips. No need to say Chief Architect Home Designer Pro, just Pro will do, along with the year -- like Pro 2024. Images (screen captures) will let others see what you see. Often, attaching your plan file -- the actual file, and not a picture of the plan will help with suggestions. So many ways of doing things, and many times new users make changes that cause problems when trying to solve a problem. Having the plan saves lots of back and forth and guessing. I'm far from knowledgeable about dimensioning, but maybe this will get you going.

Then what's the problem?

Your Upwork person used Chief Architect to create the model, and some of the objects, like the solar panels and the small roof on the first floor are not ones you may edit in Home Designer. Ask your Upwork worker to remove them.

The Home Designer website is full of articles and videos, and the default search will also search the forum (but you can narrow the focus as I have done) , so it's a good place to start when you have a question. When I began learning the program, I drew many simple models to test an idea. It's so quick to do this, and the feedback is immediate -- you see what works and what does not. Even experienced users have problems where floor and ceiling heights vary.

Understand, the program doesn't resolve issues -- you do. Start over Sometimes starting over is best. There are so many related settings and new users often make random changes trying to make something work. I'll focus on one problem, and probably the easiest to correct. You have walls in the 2nd image that seem to be showing the exterior side on the interior. You have either placed an exterior wall there, or you have changed the materials on those walls. The program doesn't know what type of wall you want, so you need to tell it. And if you want to work on fixing your plan, go to Edit>Reset to Defaults. Select All Floors and check all the boxes below.

@Keefers For many questions, and this is one, knowing what software you are using is key to providing the best suggestions. Please see this topic: https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/18908-signature-here-at-chief-talk/?do=findComment&comment=155662

Try the setting I showed above. Delete the problem windows and recreate. Various ways. Draw in a wall on level 2, make it an Attic wall. In an elevation, select the wall, you will see the wall outline (wall polyline). Place a break along the bottom. Grab the handle and drag up to form the correct shape. Check your wall types. Also read about Lower Wall Type When Split by Butting Roof.

I'm assuming ceiling panels should be ceiling planes. I do not see a room divider on the 2nd floor, nor do I see a kitchen. I see missing drywall where walls would be and it may be fixed with this setting. It's helpful to attach a screen capture or 3 showing the various problems so we know what to look for.

Never seen this. I'm assuming you are using Pro. Use Edit>Edit Area>Edit Area (All Floors) to marquee around the plan. Copy and paste into a new plan and save it. Make sure things are really deleted and not just hidden. Are they gone in all views -- plan and 3D? Open Display Options and make sure Cabinets are set to display, for example. You should have Archive files and you might try opening an Undo file as well. Difficult to help remotely and without knowing your computer skills.

@wrcolclough My estimate was a bit off. It has taken over 3 hours to upload. https://youtu.be/cVoVB5cZeyM

You are watching videos for Chief Architect, not Home Designer. Some things are the same, many are not.

No. The core of the program is a room. Everything builds around that. In your case, use a Room Divider wall to join the existing walls to create a room. When someone uses a term or phrase you are unfamiliar with, open Help and search for it

Many times, and this is one of those times, showing a screen capture of the problem will help others help you. Usually this is caused by one or more walls having No Room Definition checked.

Use a custom backsplash. Draw a rectangle over the windows -- the program will automatically make holes for the windows.

The Make Parallel/Perpendicular tool is rather simplistic. If the two objects are closer to parallel than perpendicular, it makes them parallel, and similar for perpendicular. Only when they are exactly 45 degrees apart do you have the choice of parallel or perpendicular. Experiment with CAD lines to see how it works. There are no dedicated alignment tools.

The only real difference is one has small flats instead of points. Completely made up for a Home Designer user in another group.

No. Make a copy and delete the terrain -- basically anything other than the kitchen. Zip it if it's still too big. Right click on the file, Send To>Compressed Folder

Sorry -- you need to copy to the user library first. I'm wanting your plan file, not pictures of the plan. You can also just attach the entire plan file.

Select one of those sinks in the library, right click and choose Export Library. Attach the file that's created. Use Edit Area to marquee around the kitchen, copy and paste into a new plan, save and attach it too.

A screen capture so we see what you see would be helpful.
