  1. On a U-Shaped staircase, is it possible to change the center landing to steps. KevinK Home Designer Pro 2023 Build 24.3.0.84
  2. Bingo! Second floor exterior wall was off alignment by 3 inches. Many, many thanks!
  3. See attached. Any thoughts. Done two story designs several times in HDA Pro 2023 and never had this issue. Kevin Kilpatrick Home Designer Pro, 2023; all updates Intel i5 CPU Windows 11, all updates NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050; 2GB
  4. Oops. Attached. But I determined it is a bug! Using a different Plan with the same bath configuration, I moved the toilet from the inside wall to the opposite exterior wall and no check error. I'll contact Support. Kevin Kilpatrick Home Designer Pro, 2023 Intel i5 CPU Windows 11, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050; 2GB Owner Bath.plan
  5. Eric, Please see attached. Many thanks. Kevin Kilpatrick Home Designer Pro, 2023 Intel i5 CPU Windows 11, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050; 2GB
  6. I placed a toilet on an interior wall that is 2' 5" from the opposite wall. Yet when I check the plan, I get an error "You should allow at least 24 inches of space between the front of a toilet and an opposing wall or cabinet.". Any suggestions other than redo the whole bathroom? Blackbeard HD Pro 2023 64-bit Build 24.3.0.84, Windows 11 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700 CPU NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050
  7. Eric, Did what you recommended above regarding U-Shaped stairs and still am unable to change the default stair width from 39" to 48" for both stairs. I set the stair case to clockwise and the initial gap to 113". Using the landing tool I set the landing to the below dimensions. I tried setting the stair widths in the dialog box and by manual adjustments. In both circumstances, the landing and the stairs part 2 end up on the hall floor. I have watch videos and searched Home Talk but so fair drew a blank. Georgian Style Stair Hall W: 191" D: 235" H: 120 1/2" Ascending Part 1 13 treads; Part 2 4 treads (set to best fit) Parts 1 & 2 Width = 39" Landing W: 191" (from exterior drywall to exterior drywall) D: 54" Many thanks in advance for any suggestions Blackbeard HDA Pro 2022 Build 23.4.1.8 x64 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050
  8. Many, many thanks! As it so happens, I found a much earlier version of a Bottomley design where not only the curved walls worked, but the molding curved as well. I've attached a couple of quick images. Notice that I "punched" out the curved walls. The drawing dates by to March 2013. I do apologize for causing you extra work.

  9. Attached. Plan shows post wall connections. Notice no foundation, floor, ceiling, and roof for the northwest corner chamber. Many thanks. Kevin Kilpatrick Home Designer Pro, 2022 Windows 11, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 nnnn Bottomley V2A.plan
  10. Well, that didn't work. Any other suggestions? Kevin Kilpatrick Home Designer Pro, 2022 Windows 11, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050
  11. Using Home Designer Architect Pro, 2022, wondering why when I use curved interior walls, the foundation, floor, ceiling, and roof all vanish. Please see attached images. And pardon my guidelines. Kevin HDA Pro 2022
  12. I had tried the dutch gable approach but didn't understand that I could alter the lower pitch to 3". Thank you so very much for your kind assistance. Kevin Kilpatrick
  13. Selected each outside railing segment, Railing specification dialog box, Roof dialog box, clicked on Hip Wall; Pitch = 3"; checked Upper Pitch; Upper Pitch = 10"; In From Baseline = 98"; the rest as default. Kevin Kilpatrick Home Designer Pro, 2021

    Wrapped Porches

    Just started using HD Pro 2021 this month and run into a perplexing problem. A standard Cape Cod structure with gabled east west ends. Full wrap around porch. (See Plan View 1). In 3D view, the east west ends are no longer gabled. See 3D View 1. The east west walls still indicate full gable. See Wall - Roof Dialog View 1. How can this be corrected?
