Thank you, David, I like that idea, yet on the elevation view, it still shows the arrow pointing to the hinge side. Kbird, I will look more into that later.

Hi all, What do you folks do when you want to put sidelights next to an entry door? On a full glass one I make a fixed window & adjust the frame. Yet when I ama using a door w/some detail, the best I have found is to make the unit a pocket door so it shows the slab. Yet on the floor plan you see the area where the doors slide in to eaither wall? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you!

If Architectural will let you edit your defaults, go to doors-pocket & edit the width you want it to be. Keep in mind that any pocket door you draw will keep that same dimension. Hope this works?

Thank you Robin. Kbird got me squared away this morning.

I actually have it working now. I must have messed some seting up. With any luck I will be able to wrap this up for my customer shortly to review. I appreciate the fast reply from you. Great to have this type of support. Thank you

Thank you Solver. I have been trying it on level 2. I have the floors separated since I need to use 16" I-joist as the framing for the 2nd floor. Will try to see if I can drop the floor enough to make it work. It's the only thing holding me up from finishing the preliminary design for the clients.

Hello, I am working on a ranch house plan that has a walk out basement. So I have the stepped foundation at floor 0, the garage on floor 1 since floor 2 is a little higher & is the main floor. In trying to build a farmer's porch & a small rear deck off of floor 2, when I select build deck railing, the items get build on floor 1 so the entire structure is underground? Any suggestions are very welcome, as this is stumping the daylights out of me. Thank you all.

You are a life saver Mick. Thank you very much.

Hi all, Somehow my library browser does not open. Would anyone have a solution how to reclaim it? I am using Windows 8.1 with HD Pro 2015. It was working a few days ago, so I don't know what mayhave caused it. Any help or suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

You are very welcome.

One option is to select the door, change it to a tudor arch, then select the 1 side you want lower. It will then clip the corner of the frame, yet the door will still stay square, so maybe show that door as open. Then go to an elevation view of the door & drag the height down to where it fits. The angle won't change & it should give you close to your desired result.

Thank you all for the help.

Hi All, I have HD Pro 2014 that I have been running on Windows XP. I am planning to change to a different system, either Windows 7, 8 or 8.1. With all of the experience more of you have than me, Which one seems to work better with the HD series? I may upgrade to HD Pro 2015 at some point. Any help and/or advice will be appreciated. Thank you.

It looks like it's the self-generated layout box page title? Go the the "display options" tab on the layout page & uncheck the "display box labels" box. That shoud make it disappear. Then create your own text box & place as desired.
