    Gates in fences

    Selecting a gate from the library and clicking on the fence to place it works for me. No need to first insert a door.

    Wall Dormer

    Watch on YouTube: http://youtu.be/5wxp_PVKacQ?hd=1
  4. Go to the attic level and draw in walls. Set them to Knee Wall to make them not go through the roof.
  5. No soffits. What is a "roof transition"? Pictures of the entire house would help, as would images of the problems you are having. With Pro, you have manual roofs if the auto roof builder is not working.
  6. It's not clear to me what the problem is. I see a dormer. Pro lacks curved roofs so you will need to use several roof planes with increasingly steeper pitches to achieve the look. Try a Custom Backsplash for the odd shaped rake/fascia corners. Once it's drawn against a wall you can select it and move out/reposition. Not sure what you are referring to as a bumpout, and guessing your angled wall is the underside of the roof plane.
  7. All your roof planes are at the wrong height and need to be raised. Creating a basement is a one click operation after setting the defaults. Were you doing something different?
  8. You can change the number of times you can undo. Don't know what you did, but if you attach the plan file -- close Pro first, someone will take a look.

    Custom Wall Mirror

    Try updating your video card software. I believe in the past this has corrected the problem, but not a Mac guy ...

    Custom Wall Mirror

    I did what I said above, opened the camera and checked reflections. You might want to experiment with these other settings too -- nothing to do with reflections.

    Custom Wall Mirror

    All I need is a 1 room house with your non reflecting mirror on the wall.

    Custom Wall Mirror

    Post plan for best answers. Say what is supposed to be reflecting.
  13. That's typical and would have been my suggestion, and I'd bet what support will also suggest.
  14. Support is I believe closed on weekends, and they are the ones to deal with problems like this. I do see you are running a 10 year old (or older) system -- good in its day, maybe not so good now.
  15. It's not clear what the problem is. Can you show a different angle using vector view, and maybe mark the image circling or somehow identifying the issue.
  16. Pro is the only title that allows changing of framing.
  17. See my response to your previous thread, and in addition, posting pictures of the existing structure will help. Google satellite images are often helpful when modeling an existing roof.
  18. Delete the existing and then place a new one. Select the landing tool, click where the landing goes to place it.

    Terrain View

    There is no "Terrain View". The terrain resides on the level it was created on.
  20. Make 2 rooms, flat ceiling in one, vaulted in the other. Use soffits for post and beams, but I don't think Suite has the ability to do a sloped soffit.
  21. Try using a Full Camera so you are inside the room.
  22. You may be seeing the effects of lighting. These walls are all the same color but look different in this view.
