I have tried this instruction/video to no avail; I cant get the 2nd floor to do as is suggested in the tutorial. I can change ceiling heights on 1st floor - but when I make the 2nd floor - I cant get to happen as is suggested in this demo.? Once I create the 2nd floor- all is lost on the 1st floor. I must be missing the point?

Early efforts in HDPro 2017......a pretty good designing tool. -

Can I ask why? Will this just undo all of the manually drawn bits?Hence, making it necessary to re-do/build them all? Thanks.

I use Sierra on may mac with HDPro - I get the finger regularly. (so to speak) Sierra straight out of the box..no changes.(that I am aware of?) See my screenshot image... I use this feature all the time - a good one. imo
-
What about this little button - spoken of earlier by others?
-
What I have learnt, and still are learning with HDPro - is the shortcut user knowledge you get (in forum) only really comes from using the software and messing up a few times, or more - I certainly have. Happy fiddling....

Hi - could I ask what is the 7/8 floor finish for?Flooring? Thanks.

I have looked at the plan katalyst777 added - what has been done that is closer to the pics or images posted by Fidellaty.......am I missing something?Does it solve the questions by original post? Sorry, just trying to grasp what has been solved here....Thanks. OK -got that - just opened the original plan post - there is an improvement on the remodelled house by kattalyst777......well done.
-
Why would you do that? Is that a USA thing? Style or method you do in your part of the world. Wouldn't a slab or waterproof floor frame that caps the area below for the deck over be the answer? (And more cost effective) Not a design comment as such but more a question of mine. No offence meant - just a question of learning. (for me) Thanks.

In HD Pro - you can export a .stl file - a stereolithographic file - File\Export\Export 3D model(stl) - and most of the 3D printers come with software that allows reading, manipulation and printing of these files. You have HDA - I don't know if it has the same export ? It might... You need to think about the model part to enable the best 3D printing of the site, object , house or whatever it is you print. It can get time consuming as the 3D print inter install additional support for the parts it prints....it can't print into space without support. My experience is leave out windows, posts and any interior objects, light, beds, etc - otherwise the 3D printer will go into meltdown.... To print a site - make it a hollow shell - not exported as a solid - if you get me? Good luck - it's great fun using these cheap 3D printers. I enjoy it.

Yes, I use H D Pro.....at home,.......in my office,..........professionally. This software is excellent value for money. It's a set of very clever tools that does what some much more expensive (BIM) software, cannot do. E.g., Print Model. But sorry, nothing can be achieved without some prior knowledge of what it is the software does. I'm a newbie and still re-read the reference manual and users guides. That's a big ask, and a little unrealistic - in my opinion. But if you find it - share it.

Crashing on Macintosh Sierra with Home Designer 2017?
Robborito replied to mackymac1984's topic in Q&A
According to Technical Support to my request;- The next release of Home Designer will Support OSX Sierra for sure. However OSX Sierra is still being evaluated for this current release of Home Designer. We are still considering if we will update the current release of Home Designer for OSX Sierra. The developers haven’t given any time frames as of yet to when/if an update for 2017 products will be available. -
The wall inconsistency issue seems to me to have been caused by the second part flight of the stairs. (well as best as I can determine anyway. - move the stairs away and it heals the wall) I will re-visit the 'split-level' advice in home designer data base. The foundation wall thingy - I have fixed thru your suggestions. Thank you.
-
Yes indeed - OK got that now. Thankyou. I still muddle with these 'structure' heights and relevance's....sometimes thinking I have it - but then again, maybe not. I tried the doorway past/thru the stairs suggestion you had - mmmmmmmmm. I'll try that again. rebuild the wall etc......mmmmmmmmm. Ok - will start it again. Still not liking it.Nor working right. Thanks again Solver. I'll muddle on thru it.
-
Thanks Eric - All very simple when its pointed out. I thought I had a walk thru over the stairs - I must have inadvertently deleted it? As for the footing - I have no idea how I did that, but again thanks. Any suggestions on the foundation wall missing? ( Under the entry room.) I was wanting to match the other areas. Jeff

Roche Lot 2.planI need some help please here with my model plan attached. I have attached my plan file - which seems the best option allowing any of the more experienced HDPro users to open and toy with the areas I have marked on the floor plan in purple; I hope this happens. Plan matters are; 1 - I have a wall above a roof that I cannot get to remain cladded;(externally panelled like the rest) 2 - cannot get a repeat of similar subfloor basement wall under entry pod; 3 - and I also have a footing in my attic plan over a closet - crazy idea, but I'm lost at trying to understand why it is there? This software appears straightforward - yet so thorough, and whilst I think I can use it, it throws up challenges that are not always that straightforward to understand to the uninitiated. (me) Also - I would like to get a better handle for these functions.(not always explained in the user guides etc) Thank you all in advance. Hope not to be a hassle. JR.

Crashing on Macintosh Sierra with Home Designer 2017?
Robborito replied to mackymac1984's topic in Q&A
Wow - what a drama. All that backward un-backup stuff.....too freaky. Not necessary but necessary. How time-consuming for you. I use other software as in conjunction with my HDPro2017 18.3.2.1OSX on an iMac with ElCapitan - luckily for me (if it can viewed as 'luck') I was notified by the software makers of this other software of up-comng issues with OSX Sierra; so, I did not update at the time. But did however lodge an objection because this compromises the security offered thru the OS upgrade on the Mac.(leaving a vulnerability at hand) Will be interesting to see if Chief Architect does an update for the OSX issue - prior to the next version of HDPro. I'm not unhappy to stay with ElCapitan an current HDPro for a while. Thanks for your post. -
Wow - this certainly attracted some serious input from various forum members - that's amazing. Do you guys all know each other maybe? A'Prow' roof......the wee little peaked ridge extension perhaps. That's unusual. Must be a local thing. What is it's purpose...cosmetic or is there a function? This post has been interesting reading - all the same. Thank you all.
-
I keep all plan/design versions in the same plan (HDPro) file and selectively amend each design accordingly - copying various bits as required - I find this easier to see if changes are made in one file as opposed to opening several. That is my preference.
-
So the lesson here is - copy and amend the copy and not the original? Is that it? This means re-assignin the material in the defaults? Correct? Thanks.

I too am interested to see these wonderful images that may have been rendered in HDPro....as I have asked similar question in the past and came to the conclusion ,as advised, that go with CA for better and raytraced renderings. It is what it is - I am learning. Timeless_16 - btw, your kitchen renders posted look ok I thought. Marceline's version just adds lights - doesn't it?
