Hi all,

I am designing a pole barn structure, but I would like to edit my interior/exterior walls to where there is metal for exterior then insulation then vertical 2x4's. 

Is this do-able?

Hi all,

I am drawing a simple shop with a few man doors and a roll-up door. I did not want overhang on any sides of the building, but when I changed it, the result is not what I wanted. The roof of the building now does not connect with the shell of the building. I will attach a picture for example. I have tried increasing ceiling heights, wall heights and a few other things. None of which is solving the problem. T

I feel like it is a quick fix type of problem but no luck over here. Thanks for the help in advance!

Thanks for the help! I appreciate it. 

I really am not sure where to start when it comes to that. I know in cross section/elevation view, you can't scroll to a top view. 

The closest solution that I can find is the orthographic framing overview, then go into default settings and mark what needs to be marked. 

I am also still new at this and slowly figuring things out. 

I have tried the different views, but they do not achieve the view/plan I am looking for. Thanks. 

Is something like this achievable in Home Designer Pro? I am trying to figure out how to get a roof plan/roof layout. The attached picture is just for example/reference. 

Could someone possibly make a video showing me how to turn the plan view into an elevation view and then putting the measurements to it? I will attach a picture for example. 

The attached picture is what I would like to achieve on all elevation views. Thanks. 

Thank you for the help. The PDF I was trying to put to scale did not have any measurements on it, so therefore I do not think I can get it to scale. 

Hi all,

I am currently trying to print a PDF to scale after importing it into Home Designer Pro. Is there anything I have to change and or do before I can print it to scale? And how do I print that to scale?

Thanks. 

Preferably both if possible!

I appreciate that. I actually just upgraded to Home Designer Pro. 

How do you identify where the main floor line is in "vector view" ?

I am trying to label my floor line/roof line as well as labeling eave heights, etc... I cannot figure out how to do that when I am in cross section/elevation view. Any tips? Thanks.

Can I create a title block with the Architectual version of home designer?

Is there a way to get a window like the attached picture in my design? Thanks in advance. 

Can anyone explain to me why these doors are well above the bottom of the stone/hip wall? I have tried a number of things, but nothing is working for me. 

I know this is not what it is supposed to look like. Thanks!

Yes, craftsman is an option, but from what I can tell, it does not change anything. 

I am trying to create this window in Home Designer Architectual but cannot figure out how to adjust the lites to a different position. As you can see in this picture, the lites vertical are at the top of the window. Any help on how to create this would be greatly appreciated.

How do I keep it from changing the whole roof? See pic for what I am talking about. Thanks. 

Is there any way I can make the roof on my design look like the other picture using Home Designer Architectual. I have tried changing the roof types by selecting the walls and changing them, but I cannot figure it out. 

Picture on the top is what I would like to do.

Picture on the bottom is what I have so far. 

Is there any way to make flames in firepits seem "live"? 

I will attach a picture for example. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I am trying to create a shed roof dormer over windows and doors in my plan. I am using Home Designer Architectual 2024. Can anyone assist with this?

I will attach a picture for example. Thanks!

I would like for this beam to be angled at the top so it can sit flush with the roof. Any tips on how to do this? Thanks!

I am having a hard time trying to create this roof. Any assistance would be appreciated. I will attach a picture of what the plan view looks like as well as an image of what roof style I am going for.
