What's the name of this type of roof? What are the add ons for this gable roof? I just wanted to know what to search, so I can learn how to draw it. Thanks in advance.

In AutoCAD I have different dimensioning (and font) scales, depending what size drawings are sent to the layout. For example, 1/4" scale, small font, used to dimension the house, is 3" HDPRO has the default dimension as 6". Is there a way to set up dimensioning scales, so I can just select the scale, size of fonts, I want to use?

y-g-m-n, I tried this. Here's are the different views to show how they're different, and the problem that I've been having. First pic is the Entry, as Garage. This shows the drop, as the concrete is raised at the door. Second pic is Entry, not as Garage. There's no drop before the door. I'm done with this, as the structural engineering plans already specify the drop locations. I’d like to thank everyone for taking the time to contribute.

Yes, it's lanai. The lanai has a drop, just like the "entry" on a monolithic floor plan. Here's a picture of ours.

I opened and edited Structure for the floor Lanai. The only option I see is Floor Finish. I set floor finish to -3-1/2". The floor did not drop 3-1/2", like the garage floor. Right now I'm having to set these types of floors: lanai, shower, front entry as garage and change the names.

The garage has a default of negative 3-1/2" when the monolithic slab is created. How can I assign this to defaults for different rooms? I'm wanting my floor defaults for the house front entry and rear entry, monolithic slab, to be negative 3-1/2". Thanks.

Eric, I'd like to thank you for helping. Although I couldn't find that particular post. I do automatic back-ups nightly. It was faster for me to reload the project from yesterday. Problem solved. Thanks again.

Sorry to have to ask this? Where can I find all the postings I have asked? I've clicked my profile, but it's only listing recent postings. I know that I had this particular issue years ago, but instead of asking again, I just wanted to look it up from one of my previous postings? I tried the advanced search, by searching my forum name. But, couldn't find what I was looking for. The issue is the foundation is showing in the room.

Thanks everyone for your help. When I started two years ago, I've read that you can't make tray ceilings in HDPro, that's how I got the soffit idea. y-g-m-n, I'll give this a try. Rookie65, I'll try the different ceiling heights. Two different ceiling heights worked. Thanks again.

It's all one room, ceiling height 10'.

I'm using soffits to make a tray ceiling. On the right of the room the soffits join and you don't see middle lines, but the 30 degree walls, on the left, the soffits show all the lines. Can these be joined somehow, so it looks like one solid tray ceiling all the way around? Tray Ceiling.plan

I'm so use to just pressing the space key to repeat a command in AutoCAD. Does Home Designer Pro have a key I can press to keep repeating a command?

Rookie65, I've moved it on the x axis, like 60'. I was wanting to completely make them invisible without having to delete them. If I keep deleting them I have to reattach them and scale them, just for viewing. That's why I wanted to just turn them off, and in the future turn them back on.

After importing a .pdfs, I'd like to hide them, so they stay in the drawing, but out of my way. I've read I can turn off the .PDF BOX layer. When I select the .pdf I do see that its layer is PDF Box. In layers there is no PDF Box layer. How else can I turn the .pdfs off?

FYI- I've selected a wall, then Marquee Select Similar, Select All Similar. But, all the walls get selected.
