Wow, I used to get answers here. Sad.

Why the discrepancy in the Support Instructions and my program? I did it years ago with the same program and now it doesn't seem to work.

I have done that and it only gives the appearance of "dusk." I am looking for a dark night sky.

I am trying to create a night scene to see my drawing in 3D at night. I went to the Home Designer Pro Support page and it gave me information on editing the active camera. It says to "uncheck sunlight." When I go to my edit active camera, on my program, I do not have the option to "uncheck sunlight." I am including two screen shots below showing the support page, and my screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it had been a snake... Thank you!!

Hello, I am trying to use any lighting to create "uplighting" in a cabinet. I have tried using every conceivable light (a puck being the light of choice) but I can not find a way to turn them upside down so they shine up. Any help would be appreciated. I am using Home Designer Pro 23.4.1.OSX Thanks!

Is there someone with more knowledge that can help me? That is unacceptable. You are asking me to upgrade to something that i don't need, and also would have to learn. There should be a better, easier answer than this. Should I ask the question again to the forum and let someone else answer? Erich

Hi David, How can I get the lines to be removed in the Vector camera view? In the Standard camera view you do not see the vertical lines that delineate a setback etc. It is very frustrating. Erich

Thanks, David. I had no idea it was something that simple. I feel kind of stupid LOL Thanks again, Erich

I am working on a plan that looks just great when I view it in perspective or any other camera view. However, when I view it in "Cross Section/Elevation" view, there are all these mysterious vertical and horizontal lines that appear that do not show up in any of the other views. At first, I thought they were walls that were not aligned properly with the walls below or above. I have gone through the entire drawing and used the "align with wall above/below" buttons and thought that would take care of it. It doesn't. I have attached two pictures with circled areas that are problems. These are only views from two sides, but the problem is the same on all four sides. I have also included a picture in perspective view to show that the lines do not show up. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the answers!

I know this is not a huge issue but it is annoying. I created a terrain perimeter and now my cursor has this terrain image attached to it. I have never seen this in all the years I've been using Home Designer. Does anyone know how to get rid of it? I have tried saving my work and closing the program, etc., but it is still there. UGH. Thanks!

gotcha! Thank you!!

I definitely do not understand what I am looking at. So, is this three stacked roof planes clipped down to say (for argument) 1" on all sides, adjusted to say 4 pitch and then a flat roof inserted in the center?

Not working for me... I clicked "Square" and nothing happened. I of course clicked OK. But went back to snap this image.
