custom railing for staircase and that was the first object i made.

How can i make the railing lean upwards to the next floor?

You can either use a cube from shapes or paint the molding invisible (CoreCatalog -> Materials -> Misc -> Opening (No Material))

If i try and paint the mold then all the molds in the same room become invisible (using the component option).

I got a respond from the support.

 

Hi Kenny,

Thank you for outlining the problem.

The issue arises when we use a single layer wall type as the upper wall. I’ll send this over to our development team to improve functionality.

In the interim you can get the look you want by copying the Glass Shower wall type and then modifying it so that it has two layers of glass.

This solution work. Dual layer glass fix the problem.

I have been away and have not been able to reply to your questions and answers. However you did not read everything i said completely "I don't intent to use any objects from the library." meaning no bathtubs etc, just building a "pool" like bathtub from blocks. I did later understand i could just do this with allot of slabs to make it look ok but i did the easy way and just added a object as an example, the real bathtub will however be created from scratch.

However i did also understand i could still use slabs but i just need a bit more of them

Hmm, i was just about to do it sense it looks like an issue that require some weird work around to fix.

In my signature it says Home Designer Pro 2015

If there is some way to prevent it from cutting the ceiling then it would solve everything.

I'm trying to make a balcony-like room but the lower part of the wall that is supposed to cover the floor height is missing. How can i fix it? See picture for more detailed info.

What i did was simply to draw a room on the 2nd floor in a already made home.

Edit:

The problem is only there when i use pony walls, when i used normal interior walls the problem was fixed. Upper half of the pony walls are glass shower type and when i change that part to interior then everything works well, why does the upper glass part cause this problem? I think it had something to do with the width of the glass wall or something like that couse when i made a special wall for it then the problem was fixed but then another problem came up. The glass now cut the ceiling with its "air gap" filling i had to add to make the wall thicker .

I'm trying to make a custom bathtub so i went ahead and starting to create blocks like i wanted it to be with the slab tool and then when i was supposed to extract a hole for the actual bath then i cant find that tool anywhere.

Normally you kinda add a new block and just extract that from the other. Is there some secret button I'm totally missing now?

I don't intent to use any objects from the library.

Please help me if you have any advice.

Ohhh, i did not know about that website! Thanks, now this will help me allot more in allot more subjects

I have been trying to find a sauna heater to place but i cant find any and in the forum "sauna" is to short to search for. Any suggestions on a library that have some sauna heaters? I'm also looking for some nice glass door handles so some librarys with taht to would be nice

I did change the walltype to another type and then the problem was solved, Don.t know why tho...

I'm trying to make a curved half wall but it adds some kind of top rail on it that i don't want. I have tried to search options to shrink or or something to turn it off but i cant fint any thing that does the trick. It's that overhang at the edge i want to remove, i just want a clean 90° edge.

Any suggestions?

The whole thing is already done and right now i'm at the small little things

I have not used the soffit tool before. I see now its extremly usefull for allot of finishing touches i have in mind. Thanks for the information.

Thanks to you i finally got my room to look like i wanted, thanks alot!

There is only one thing that is missing and that the handle. There is no "Pull ,no baseplate" to choose. I only find with baseplate and it looks way different. Is that some custom handle you have?

How did you add that cap? Looks great.

I'm sorry if i'm asking silly questions. TI'm new to the program and trying to learn what you know.

Thanks again!

Your samples look great, feel free to upload them as sample files so i can look more into them That door handle and borderless dorr is also something i'm looking for so your sample files would help me in many ways. Thanks!

Great tips, thanks again!

Pony wall was in deed intresting and almost did it! But as you can see at the pictures, well it does not look good at all. It would be best if it did look like a solid railing with a nice top on the lower half.

I'm trying to make a show that the lower half of the walls are of stone while the upper half is made of glass. I can not figure out how to make this, can somebody please help me?

I found a sample picture that clearly show my idea.
