  1. The back porch is the area on the top of the plan that is 16'6" wide, and the dining area is to the left of there at 14'4" wide. The roof over that section is what I am asking about. I am not sure what style I am looking for, I am just looking for ideas on how I can make it look better. I do not like how there is an extra ridge over those rooms due to the raised ceiling heights. An idea I had was a shed roof to change the pitch over this area, but just and idea and I am unable to get it to work (I have tried everything I can think of)
  2. Hello all, I am attempting to draw a plan, and am struggling a bit on the roof. My goal is to make all the common areas 10' ceilings and the other rooms to be 9' ceilings. When I change the areas to 10', it also changes the roof layout. I completely understand why it does this, but I am looking for a suggestion on how I can make it look better. Pictures below show the plan and roof with 9' throughout, and the how the roof changes when I add 10' ceilings to some rooms. I do not like how the roof sticks out over the backporch area and dining area. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for me to make this look more appealing, thanks! I am using Home Designer Pro 2024.
  3. Yes this is what I am looking to do but on the back porch
  4. Hello all, I am attempting to build a shed roof (flatter pitch) over a back porch but after watching videos I am still at a loss. It appears all I need to do is make the pitch less over the porch but when I attempt this it goes haywire. I have attached photos of what the roof currently is set to, the floor plan, and the roof I am attempting to draw. Thanks in advance. Using Home Designer Pro 2024.

    This is my current setting, but the dimensions are not showing.
  11. Hello all, Is there a way to make elevations similar to the picture below? I am wanting to draw and print plans for my own contacting company, but the only way I can figure out how to get elevations is just the 3D images. Which end up showing the exterior finish. I am looking for ways to be able to do it like the image below. Thank you all in advance.

  13. Hello all, I am using Home Designer Pro 2024. I reopened my plan to continue working, and noticed the dimensions are all over the place. I do not remember it being this cluttered. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks

    Brick Ledge

    Hello all, I noticed when looking at the structure of my wall, the brick ledge appears to be at least 12" below the floor height. The concrete crew uses a 2x6 when pouring, so just need a 1.5" ledge. Does anyone have a good pointer to fixing this? Thanks in advance
  17. Hello. It is showing the video was removed.
  18. Auto Rebuild Foundation is on. Just not able to figure out changing the floor height on a wall.
  19. Thank you. That is working for the floor, but now I am unable to get the "walls" foundation to lower. I am not finding this on the help page.
  20. Just started using Home Designer Pro 2024. I am having trouble figuring out my porches and patios. The floor seems to be higher than the rest of the house. Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks!
