  2. Manually draw a shed roof and then place corbel symbols underneath. DJP
  3. More useful data on dimensions: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=dimensions+in+chief+architect DJP
  4. Yes, easier to do in Chief Premier but with greater difficulty in HD Pro. DJP

  6. I am guessing from your image that most likely you manually drew the problem roof plan misplacing its "Base Line" from the outer edge of the bearing wall to a more inward position. Overhangs are computed from the baseline, just a guess. Are you using Home Designer Pro? If you were to share a copy of your problem plan I could be more certain in response. DJP

    Above ground

    Terrain was added as a feature to this software in 2,000 AD and has always been treated as an "add on". The terrain has a dialog box and part of that dialog box is an input box called "Building Pad". This input box controls the overall height of the terrain plane as an object relative to the "Zero Inches of the first floor's surface". Using trial and error changing the input box values will raise or lower the terrain relative to the structure's height. Take a look and practice with that dialog box-input box. DJP
  10. The features you wish do not exist in any Home Designer title; they do exist in Chief Architect Premier, sorry. DJP
  11. Main Toolbar " View - Scrollbars-on or off" DJP
  12. When you get symbols made by others, they are not made for use in Home Designer software. It works but as you have seen, not precisely as you desire. You can learn to use Sketch Up and when mastered create complicated symbols, sorry... DJP
  13. Personally, I do not have a clue. I always buy what supports what I do. DJP
