    Snaps tutorial

    See the image. You can change the Snap Unit. Set it to 12", then draw a wall. See how it works. Set it to 1/2", see how it works. Looking at your interior dimensions, many end in eights -- 7'-3/8". I'd try for no fractions, and use 1/2" as my smallest fraction.
  2. #1 Could you post an image showing this? #2 Build the foundation
  3. You may also need to increase the stemwall height. 110" instead of the 70" shown puts the footings about even with the rest of the house.
  4. Enter new values from the top down.
  5. You can emulate this by using multiple wall types. The columns are standard 8" concrete walls, the infill is a pony wall with the top being the 8" concrete wall.
  6. What's the purpose of the balcony space? Is it a balcony, and does it need a roof over it?
  7. Home Designer YouTube videos. Some of these deal with landscape. Knowledge Base. Knowledge Base Article on Gate in wall.
  8. Set the space (room) on the second floor as Open Below. Search the programs Help system for more info on Open Below.

    Here is one with the dormers done. These are all Auto Dormers that have been exploded. Foothills 7660 Franklin Road (2) Eric New.plan

    I did it manually. The program is good about joining rood planes, so the front garage roof plane joined easily to the front house roof plane. The fascia height was I think an inch different, but I changed the garage to match the house. Draw in a small roof plane on the back of the connector space and join it to the rear garage roof plane. Drag it to the house wall. Then drag it up to the ridge. Connect up the ridge -- the hard part on this one.
  11. What I said above will work, it's just tricky. This one is manual. I don't understand why an auto dormer will not work. I placed one on the garage, changed the roof to a shed, resized it, then exploded it to change the window. Looks correct inside and out.

    Don't know how you work with everything black. Here is the roof fixed. Too many problems with the dormers to quickly fix and I need to get to a job. Will look again later today if no one else has. Foothills 7660 Franklin Road (2) e.plan
  13. If the model is not set up to auto build correctly, try this. Auto build the roof after setting pitch and overhangs properly. Copy the roof planes over the garage and connector space. Control Z to undo the auto build roof. Paste Hold Position to put the auto generated roof planes back over the garage.
  14. I don't know how. I don't deal with basements so not something I'm familiar with.
  15. You have a stemwall set to 3000mm, and a ceiling at 2000mm, giving you a 1000mm wall below. Shows clearly in the Room Specification>Structure graphic. Do you have a picture or drawing of what you are modeling?
  16. You could select the entire second floor and move it into place. Press F9 to show the reference display. Or just delete the 2nd floor and redraw. Build>Floor>Build New Floor
  17. "Form joint/corner in a selected line." function in the menu Which menu?
  18. The simple solution is to position a slab over the space.
