I bet that's a limitation of all titles except Pro -- sorry for the misinformation. You seem to be stuck with doing 1 wall at a time. Back to your original question. What does the material list have to do with this? The amount of brick and siding will almost be the same. You will need a bit more concrete to form a brick ledge. In any case, I would supply your contractor drawings to bid from, and not rely on the materials list.

No, select all your exterior walls and change at once -- either change the Siding-6 wall, or change to a Brick wall type.

All you did is paint the siding with a brick texture, you did not change the material. Change the Siding-6 wall to have brick instead of siding, or select your exterior walls and change them to Brick-6 (or whatever brick wall you want).

My take on the problem. Watch on YouTube: http://youtu.be/v_DgpOpC8ik?hd=1 Or here ...

Pro gives you more tools. It's up to you to learn and use them.

Your image shows a lower pitch roof on the porch. Fix that and your roof will build closer to what you need. With Pro, you have manual roof tools too.

Edit>Delete Objects Or turn off the display of framing as David suggested.

If there is a 2nd floor, add it before working on the roof.

Is your roof correct? Where do the stairs go?

The program like walls that match from floor to floor when thinking about visible lines as you have shown. Here is an idea for you to experiment with. If you want an all brick foundation wall, just substitute brick for the concrete I show. And leave the sill plate in place -- maybe make it 3 1/2".

Which is why i suggested you auto build the roof and

I did as I suggested above.

Make multiple cabinets and then combine them. Use soffits, partitions, custom countertops. You just need to think creatively.

Create a blank floor, turn on Reference Display and draw walls where needed. You should always get the structure (floors and walls) correct prior to working on the roof.

Suggest auto building the roof, then modify what is generated. When a gable wall is missing, it may be set to invisible like the first one, or just not generated like the 2nd. You see I just dragged the wall over to cover the gap. Read up on Roof Cuts Wall At Bottom, and Lower Wall Type When Split By Butting roof. These 2 setting are often helpful with a roof like this.

See this post. Try using the technique shown.

You should also be able to reverse the wall using the Reverse Layers command if available. The program sees this as a different wall type and will not automatically join.

Post your plan file and someone will have a look.

Use the Wall Break tool. Change the section of railing to be how you want. You can also insert a doorway into a railing.

Place 2 doors like this. Select one, and use the center tool to move it over.

You will need Architectural, I believe, to define your own wall types. Pro will probably work best for your needs.

What is a "hidden line"? What do you want that your work around is not giving you?

Use 3 (or however many you need) landings.

What you see is just how the program works. You will need to draw in your own ceiling plane that will cover the gap caused by the intersecting gable.
