  1. There may be a simple software switch to answer this question, but I haven't been able to find it. I'm using Home Designer Pro 2024. Context: I have a two story design with slopped flat trusses 2' top to bottom across a shed roof. I created the trusses by creating one in the space between ceiling and roof planes. That part worked fine. I then replicated the 'locked envelope and web' every 24" across the roof. So far so good. I ended up with the truss structure like I wanted across the entire roof. Auto build roof framing is turned off. The problem arises If I have to modify and rebuild the roof for any reason. As soon as I do, the trusses are duplicated so that I end up with multiple trusses in the same locations with slightly different web structures. Every time I rebuild the roof I get more trusses in identical locations and with identical structures. I end up having to delete the unwanted trusses one at a time (at times > 50 trusses). The next time I rebuild the roof for any reason I end up with the same problem again. When I first noticed the issue I had 5 sets of trusses all in the same locations. How do I prevent duplicate trusses from being created when I rebuild the roof!?

    Eric, Thanks! Your guidance was invaluable! Here's the image posted again with your answers included. Hopefully someone else will benefit also.

    Eric, Still some serious issues. If no solution available, then this is a fairly serious issue, since this is a very common foundation/floor structure in this area! Note the two questions in the bottom window of the attached image.

    I saw a very similar problem posted by HDbyJustin but the only solution suggested to him was to get HD Pro. That is what I have and I still don't see a solution.

    Yes, but it put the blocks above the slab level (changes the entire wall to block) and i couldn't figure out how to lower them below the slab level.

    Here is another illustration of the same situation.

    Stem wall with slab

    I am trying to recreate a stem wall with 3 courses of block below grade with the top even with a slab floor over compacted A/B limestone as illustrated in the image below. I can't figure out how to do this in HD Pro 2023 build 25.3.0.77 Windows 64 bit. I've seen other comments with a similar situation, but saw no solutions. Any help would be appreciated!
