Is your foundation correct -- stemwall? Try Hang 1st Floor Platform Inside Foundation Walls.
-
Have you checked the bonus catalogs?
-
You need to Toggle Patterns off.
-
Does Pro have Build>Framing>Joist Direction?
-
Vector and Technical views do not show textures -- only Standard view uses textures. Does Pro have this?
-
Probably a bug caused by something you did -- that is, you likely did nothing wrong, just unique, and the program did not handle it correctly. Pro does not have moldings that can be applied directly to walls, unless it's a new feature in 2020. Are you using a Wall Covering? If so, and you have a 2nd floor, are you applying it to the 2nd floor wall? Wall Coverings apply to a specific wall and won't show if located off that wall. Keep in mind the upgrade discount for going from Pro to Chief. You get to take off the cost of Pro from the cost of Premier. Upgrade discounts are generally available around December too. And you can rent to own premier, although this is the most expensive way to buy. And there is the pre owned market. There is always someone on ChiefTalk selling an unwanted license, although with you already owning Pro and getting the $500 off, it's usually difficult to make this work.

Textures and Patterns are used in different types of views, but they both may be toggled off. Colors may also be toggled on or off. Search help for patterns and for colors.

Look at a framing overview -- no need to guess Pro lacks frieze boards. Are you using some other method to create them?
-
The simple solution is to drop the terrain -- is there something wrong with doing that?
-
Think about the relationship of the garage floor, driveway and terrain. The driveway should be a bit lower than the garage floor, and the terrain should be a bit lower than the driveway. If your model needs to be different, then you will need to do some things differently.

Does someone have a guide of sorts to the break line tool?

Soffits don't curve, custom countertops and slabs do. Custom countertops accept moldings. -

Curved -- rounded off how? -
Just create a jpg instead of a PDF. What are you using to do the screen capture?
-
Are you asking about rafters and purlins? The software won't do the purlins -- go back to ChiefTalk and search there for some options. Draw a roof, build framing, copy a rafter, delete the roof, paste/hold position the rafter.
-
Please post images directly -- no need to make a PDF of an image. This makes it easier for others as an image shows in the forum.
-
You probably need to create 4 images from a single, then apply the parts to the 4 walls.
-
That's a problem You need a 2nd floor, you cannot create a room on the A (attic) floor. Check walls to make sure none have No Room Definition checked.
-
You want all doors 36" or less to be double? You can change the default as Rookie said, and all doors will be double. You could create a door configured as you like, then add it to the Library for reuse.
-
If you have a camera showing in plan view, double clicking it should open the view in a new tab. Post the plan file for a better suggestion.
-
Open the room, change the floor height to match.
-
Sorry -- Custom Backsplash.
-
Aligned where? Top or bottom, or both?
-
Generally, you want the house floor at 0" and things like the garage, porches etc with a negative floor height. Suite seems to default to a 24" stem wall for garages. To change it, after you build the foundation, open the foundation room under the garage and change the stem wall height. This will turn off auto rebuild foundations, so you probably would do this when the foundation is not going to change.

Can't help with the wall breaks, but know of no reports of them not working. Best way to tile a wall is with the Custom Backsplash tool. If you are using a Wall Covering to apply paint to the wall, the Custom Backsplash will not work. You will need to remove it and paint the wall with the Eyedropper.
