Duh, just didn't think it thru, thanks !

Is there any way to shorten studs from the standard 8' to 7' or even 6' somewhere in Home Designer Pro 2021 (such as in defaults or somewhere I can't yet find) ? I am considering building a small work shed and don't want the walls to be so tall.

that's the idea, always looking for an interesting challenge !

why not ?

How do I attempt to design this project ? . . . seems like a giant challenge . . .

Try using "soffits" as your go to material. They can be sized and colored to match your materials of choice.

No, but I'll give that a try, thanks for the suggestion ...

That must be my problem, no direct x12. Those are stock items also. Thanks

64 is the setting

Tried that with no luck, not sure what else to try ?

That did not help me. I tried that but no luck . . . I'm now running Windows 11

Why am I seeing these strange color tiles ? When I use the program the up close colors are right but when you scroll back these crazy lines and tiles show up. I'm thinking that a setting is wrong somewhere but not sure where to look . . .

Thanks, how I missed that I'll never know

I know how to change wall thickness's (under wall types) to some point, but my issue is how can I make walls 12" thick ? I see choices for 4', 6", 8" & 16", but no 12" ? I use HD Pro 2021 running windows 11. Thanks in advance !

OK, long story short . . . after I reset my pre-made "template plan" to reflect these wall type details ("edit / default settings / exterior wall or interior wall / wall types" set as such) and I redraw a new plan, the framing now shows outside walls at 24" centers and internal walls at 16" centers. I believe by going thru all of these recommendations I missed something but I am now happy with the outcome. It is best to set default settings on a "template plan" as I have which will then provide these specific details as I design future plans. For some reason pre-drawn plans will not show the changes made in default settings after having been done.
