Hi Guys I am trying to create panel molding design on a staircase wall with a mirror inset a few things I have run into Since this is the staircase wall you cant do an elevation to showcase the entire wall. I only get a portion of the wall.. After creating my mirrors and exact locations, I could not find a way to create a panel molding effect I used the soffit tool and tried to do it manually, but it really is not the right way to do this to get the desired effect I found a video showing a method for chief architect, but I know there must be a simple way to do this in Pro 2023 Thanks for your help in this matter in coming up with a solution.

Hi Everyone I am looking to create a time lapse video with Home Designer Pro for a project. I have seen Chief Architect videos using this technique. Question - Have you done a timelapse Video with Home Designer product? What products/software did you use did you use to accomplish this? I would love to hear if anyone has done this with HD Products. Thanks for the Feedback D-

Hi Everyone Looking for feedback on Home Designer Pro 2024 from seasoned users. Do you like it? Do you see BIG improvement from HD Pro 2023? What is the biggest improvement that you find amazing? I love working with my HD Pro 2023 and I really see that it is an improvement from the prior version, so I am happy and content using it for now. I do plan on upgrading at the end of year. Unfortunately, it seems like I just upgraded to 2023 (It was actually last November - I guess I was late to the party). Time flies by so quickly... I always believe in upgrading to the newest version, just wondering if I should wait to the end of the year - Looking for feedback from users. QUESTION - Do you feel your current computer works well with the new version, or did you need to upgrade your system? Thanks in advance for your feedback, IF YOU UPGRADED TO HD PRO 2024 from an earlier version of HD Pro. PLEASE MARK THIS CLOSED.. I HAVE MY ANSWER.. In the event, anyone is curious, I have found that the new version has some cool new features. The people that shared with me, indicated they were happy with the upgrade. Thanks a lot.... D-

THANKS - GOT IT PROBLEM SOLVED THX

please let me know what tools I can use to make these two symbols in HD Pro 2023 thx

Gary Wow,,, Thanks for the answer... I must say that after watching the video several times, I never would have guessed this.. They don't like this to be easy with HD Pro.. I love the program, but it is not user friendly or intuitive. My usage is more for showing ideas and some construction documents so HD Pro is a winner in my book. Just wish it were a little easier to learn the new features. In all these years, I think that I have not tweaked my tool bars more than once or twice. I can't believe that I never thought of this step before. I guess that I need to go back to reading my manual in my spare time, to ensure that I maximize the program more. After tinkering, I found the solution to the other problem. I really appreciate you taking the time to provide this answer over the holiday weekend. Best Regards

Hi there... Everyone... Happy Sunday - Happy Easter. (Note: I do not expect anyone to be here today - just sending today so that it will be in the que for tomorrow. For the life of me, I can't figure out why my layout page numbers do not show up at the top on my toolbars. Please let me know if I am supposed to turn them on somewhere. I watched a video demonstrating setting up construction documents - that was AWESOME - by the way.. However, my program does not display the page number icon \note: I can get to the various pages by going to the Tools - page layout and choose page up or page down When I go to the additional pages in the page up or page down - I do not see the template sheet boxes - The pages are blank Thanks for letting me know what setting I need to turn on to make this work properly. Best Regards

you nailed it the scale That is the issue Did you see the images I sent? I tweaked it to make it work, but there must be an easier way I will keep at it.. Thx J

The issue is _ I cant send to layout as an image together because they do not fit on layout page with my drawing I decided to draw my details separately and save as an image file(s) The resolution is not good when I save it and import to layout file Take a look at the resolution quality of the image Thanks so much for any help in how to make this work

YES IT MAKES A VERY LARGE IMAGE THE ENTIRE PAGE THE RESOLUTION IS NOT GREAT WHEN YOU MAKE IT LARGER I WANT THE BEST CLARITY SO THAT WHEN I USE IT FOR MY 24 X 36 BLUE PRINT IT IS CLEAR AND NOT FUZZY IT LOSES RESOLUTIION IN THE IMAGE TEXT THX J-

Hi all Quick question - How does one group a series of CAD Text boxes and image to make them move together like an architectural Box? I created a detail drawing with several text boxes in the plan file. I want to be able to manipulate them in the layout file as an image instead of a series of individual boxes. Since they are CAD text boxes the Architectural box feature does not come up. Let me know if there is a way to do this. Thanks Program: Home Designer Pro - 2023

Does anyone use the Home Designer Backup & Storage USB? I was wondering, how this tool can help me with the use of the HD software. Thx for the feedback J-
