I think Pro has Make Roof Baseline Polyline. If so, read up on it, as it's a better way to change the shape of the roof -- rather than using the Gable Roof Line. The soffit is a problem with the software. Please report to support. Try these settings. I used 48", but you should use the actual depth.

If you just need to fill in between the cabinet and wall with a countertop, use a Custom Countertop, and a Custom Backsplash.

It does not show there in the Home Designer products. look in the status bar when an object is selected.

Look under Line Style.

Open one of the images and see which layer it's on.

I don't believe Home Designer has the ability to do what you want. The electrical symbols are CAD Blocks, not images. You might try using a file type that lets you have a transparent background, like png. You might also contact support. Also, electrical plans, normally, do not show furniture, at least here in the US.

Explode the block, make changes, re-block.

Please do.

Suggest you contact Home Designer sales.

You will need to Tab to select the wall. There is a setting Select Walls Before Room, that will change this. I see that you have Pro 9. That's old, or did you just buy Pro, in which case you have Pro 2018.

I verified that a pony wall does not work as expected. Select the top edge an pull it down just a bit. It should snap back and rebuild, removing the parts that stick out.

Because you have Pro, I'll recommend you use its manual roof tools. After getting the roof correct -- not worrying about the dormer, turn off auto rebuild and reshape the roof planes as required. Then, draw in a roof to cover the dormer.

Uncheck Ceiling Over This Room.

On the interior, the 2nd floor walls need to be aligned with the first. From the 2nd floor, select a wall and use the Align With Wall Below tool. Because the first floor walls are thinner, you will then need to manually move the 2 long walls out 2". Doing this roof in Suite is going to be not so easy. If I were designing this, I'd look at doing the rear like this. It cleans up the roof lines, and makes the changes not so obvious.

People seem to start with Suite, although its limitations would be very frustrating to me. Architectural has more features, but they mostly relate to structure -- defining new wall types, for example. Pro has even more tools, and allows you to manually create ceilings and roofs. If you are successful in your business, and willing to invest much more money, consider the Chief Architect products (Interiors and Premier). You may always upgrade by paying the difference in price from your software to the higher priced version. Pro, and the Chief Architect branded products have a rent to own feature too.

Just continue this thread. It's confusing when people edit their original post, so just add the new info in a new post.

Click the path, click the Key Frame tool, click on the path to place it. I tested in Chief Premier, but should work the same in Pro.

Read up on the Open Below room type. Second floor. Draw a room, set it to Open Below.

None of the Home Designer products have the ability to manipulate symbols. You will need a 3rd party symbol. Search the 3D Warehouse (Google to find it) for a grab bar.

You have been looking at things that apply only to Chief Architect. The Home Designer site has a blue theme. If you find yourself on the Chief Architect site, it has a green theme.

This set of icons controls how materials, including colors, are applied. Suggest reading up on how they work.

Posting images is almost always helpful. Is this what you are asking about?

Why does it need to be raised?

I took a look, redrew walls and various other things. made it better, but not fixed. The program does not work really well with curved walls. I'll suggest getting the remainder of the plan correct, then work on the tower.

I believe you cannot do so in Suite. You will need to draw the walls, then paint them with a material.
