Eric Wow...Thank you so much for that video! It is not exactly as I have it but it does answer a lot of questions. Your roof over is very nice but since it's a mobile that would be problomatic because with a mobile home they tell you not to make hard connections due to ground heave. My home is on blocks, not lucky enough to have a stem wall or even a slab so my solution was to build it like a self supporting deck which some of it is. I now have this and I can take it from here. Thanks again for the help, sorry if I was a PITA to get started.

Hi Eric. Thanks for the help on this. In the real world I have actually compleated this part of the extension build but am now in the planning stage of a second addition to the far right of the deck which will give me an additional bedroom. What I am doing now is trying to recreate the plan in HD so I can visualize the new addition and it's interior layout.

Eric I rebuilt the foundation but it did not put a foundation under the addition. This is a mobile home so I am trying to not physically connect the addition to the home, it will be done as a stand alone structure rather like a deck and 3 season room would be. Perhaps though, that is my problem because I have 4 walls defined in the addition with the one at the house being invisible. Maybe this is not possible with Home Designer and perhaps for my purposes I should delete the invisible wall so that the addition becomes part of the home plan.

Thank you. I now have this and this But the gables are open as is the foundation on the new addition but at least it's in scale and looking better. Should I rebuild the foundation? How do I go about closing up the gables?

Thank you Eric. Do you have a solution to my problem? I have been googling, youtubing, watching videos, reading message boards rebuild.plan

Hello When placing a roof, how do you tell it that you don't have an attic? I have trusses sitting on the exterior walls, no attic and no attic walls yet HD doesn't seem to allow that. I have tried making attic walls invisible and turning off the automatic attic walls and then I get this .. a floating roof! What do I have to do to get the roof to sit on the walls ?? Thanks
