Well... YIKES!!

You are doing much better! A pic of the front of the real house, would help us to see what the roof is supposed to look like.

What you have posted, is way too poor for anyone to guess at what is needed for the existing house roof. As Rookie65 said, the front of the house should be parallel to the bottom of your screen. Fix your plan. It is the terrain that gets rotated and adjusted to the house. ???

Here is another snip pic of the house. This is only meant to be an example, to show you what you can create with your software, (with practice and experimenting). I did not save the plan file.

The double-sided firebox is a fireplace screen, with it's depth altered. Everything else is done with closed box shapes.

Something like this?

I guess I am not understanding the problem? There is base molding in the room; There is crown molding in the room; The firebox (with feet) is raised off the floor; There is no base molding below the firebox.

Did you put the pass-thru "floor to bottom" at 0"?

Delete the base molding, then add new crown molding.

What you ask for on the forum, is too extensive for any in depth replies. You need to watch the video tutorials, https://www.homedesignersoftware.com/videos/ and then practice and experiment until you understand how the software works. That design is very complicated for someone new to the software. To answer your question, "Is it possible?" Yes. And it CAN be modeled using only the auto build roof tools, that Suite and Architectural offer.

In the 2nd pic, it looks like you were able to build the steps. To add more info about that, Suite does allow custom landings, but that is not necessary. -Draw the 1st 2 bottom steps; allow space for a landing; draw the set of 6 steps; allow space for a landing; draw the final step. Click at the top and bottom of the 6 steps, and the landings should automatically generate. Looking at the space you have, and depending on ceiling height, the step riser height will be a steep, almost 9". For the closet beneath the stairs, like Rookie65 said, draw an interior wall and drag it under the stairs.

Thank you for filling out your signature, showing your product and it's version.

Unfortunately, you will have to turn auto roof build back on. The red "hatched" walls show the new addition walls. NONE of the 2nd floor walls should have "no room definition" checked. Only the attic walls will have that checked.

The walls you can't delete are attic walls having "no room definition". You need to draw ALL new walls on the existing 2nd floor (for the addition) and make sure where they connect to an existing 2nd floor wall,is NOT an "attic" wall, or you will NOT get a "room" (with a floor).

Big guessing game.

I see that you posted the plan, but I am unable to view that with my program.

You haven't replied with what was asked.

You need to post a screen shot showing your efforts, and then specifically explain what part of the blue picture you are unable to replicate.

I see 3 dormers in the pic you posted. Which on are you trying to do?

What is "Studio"?

Not enough useful info, for anyone to offer much help.

I think that is a VERY old Home Designer file format. You should contact tech support to ask if there is still a way to open the file.

y-g-m-n, If you zoom in, on the extremely cluttered floor plan, you will see that each room DOES have a door.

You will need to place and shape individual landing steps.
