  1. Are the walls along the foundation wall? If so, you create a "pass through" in the wall in front of the window. Depending on the detail needed, you'll likely need to adjust the casing and sill.on the interior or exterior to get it to look right. Possibly even extending the frame of the window. I usually make the pass through about 1/2" larger than the window and center it on the window so there's a bit of a reveal around the edges. Your description is pretty vague as to what you want to do.
  2. Could be the direction that the camera is facing. In 2025, they have added an axis view so you can see whether it's a positive or negative move. You'll want to post further questions under the "Q&A" tab
  3. You do that by going to wall types>foundation. There you will see where you can specify plate size and quantity
  4. Or the "fixes" create problems that never existed before
  5. While I don't open .plan files that people post, have you thought of making that wall a solid railing and setting the railing height to what the other rooms are? And again, you would likely benefit from spending a lot of time with the reference manual to understand the program better.
  6. Do you have roof trusses turned on in that camera view? Each camera has the option to turn items on and off
  7. Probably best to contact customer service tech support directly during their business hours.
  8. If they are different pitches, then yes, you would want Pro to draw them manually. Also, please post questions in "Q&A", so more people will see them. And it's helpful for you to fill out your signature.so people always know what program/year you are using. Click on your profile, then account settings, then signature. Make sure you check for it to display.

    Door Dimensions

    Looks to me that they are showing on the door shown at the far right
  10. "Floor finish" means the thickness of the finished floor material. The structure would be where you'd drop it like a garage or deck. Unless your wording is incorrect?
  11. Change it to dimension from surface and not wall dimension layer, if Architectural lets you set dimensions that way
  12. I have my specs in a word document and copy and paste what I need into a text box for each plan. For my window and door schedule, I have an XL spreadsheet master that I change for each project. For a title page, you can save a layout page and then change it for each project. It is not tedious and you can keep each as a master sheet to pull from
  13. I don't know all of Suite's limitations, yet depending on which way the furring is going to run, you could likely do it with soffits, or custom backsplashes. Put the 1st one where it needs to be against the wall and then define the size (likely 1"x3"). Then "transform/replicate" the right dimension in the right direction. Make the material fir framing so it looks like wood.
  14. Then how do you have a tray ceiling, as they are usually a different height?
  15. If the ceilings are different heights, try using room dividers to enclose the higher ceiling room and change the height of the new room
  16. Open the wall type, click on the siding, then adjust it
  17. Open up the dialog box and you will see the spacing. Then adjust it
  18. Yes, you can do that. Yet I think it helps if you can reference a manufacturer that makes the product so you don't present something made up that may not actually be available. As not all of a manufacturers products are available in all areas.
  19. Have you downloaded the certainteed catalog? If so, go to siding>vertical >8" board and batten. Then edit the spacing to 12" or whatever it is. Make sure the texture changed too. Then paint it the color you need it to be
  20. The program default is 1st floor for level 1. Try to fix that before getting wrapped up in the other stuff. Probably wouldn't hurt to spend time reading the reference manual
  21. The 1st floor should be level 1. The basement would be level 0.
  22. Can't do that that I know of. They're either there or not. What are the pdf's of, section details, floor plans, etc?
  23. Depending on what you are doing with the PDF, you can move it along an axis, typically "X", a number of inches so it's out of the way. Then you can move it back if you need to trace another part of it, etc. That's how I understand your question.
