The front wall of the balcony can not extend beyond the 1st floor wall beneath it, if you want the roof to continue in front of it.

I only posted 2 lines. The details were in the thumbnail. Post a pic showing the problem, so that somebody can help.

Glad to hear that the issues are resolved! I reckon that you learned a few new tricks during the process?! Are you going to post a pic of your success (with your personal design touches) ? Nice job, LawB10.

Lots of fireplaces and wood stoves in the library.

Another thought... Why not do a 'save as' plan to use as an experiment? Start eliminating things in the 'save as' plan (anything not necessary to the shell of the house, such as cabinets, fixtures, terrain, etc.). View and rebuild 3d as you go, to see if the siding suddenly rights itself. If it does, then that would indicate (by reducing file size and rendered surfaces) that the integrated video is responsible.

This is a wacky idea but try rotating the siding 90 degrees, just to see if that will force the video card to display it correctly. Remember, I did say it was a wacky idea!

Maybe this will help. Draw 2 cad lines to use as a reference point (shown in red). 1st one at 0, 2nd at 45. Position the cabinets until the front corners touch (fill-in between cabinets will auto build). Add a 3rd cad line from front pivot point to back pivot point (gives a reference point for the breakfast countertop's outer pivot point). Use the custom countertop (or soffits) for the breakfast counter. Raise the cabinet backsplash to meet the breakfast counter. If you block the components, you can then position the breakfast bar anywhere you want, without losing the configuration.

When the roof is correct, turn off 'auto build roof '. The interior walls can then be removed, if desired.

Lower roof profile, minus the 2nd rv bay.

A lower roof profile ? Or has the far left side garage been axed?

What Eric said is important, so I am just guessing.... But maybe this will get you headed in the right direction.

Really nice!

Jeff, I wish you had also posted a pic of the west wall invisible bumpout, so that we could see what was not matching up. But I'm thinking maybe raise the ceiling in the invisible room. LawB10, Thanks for clarifying that Suite16 can open HDA10. I didn't think it was possible, because HDA is a higher level program. The difference between the programs? LOTS. Sloped soffits are indispensable! Custom countertops, moldings, etc.

Is a footing 48" below ground level needed at a basement walk-out?

Jeff, Many of the answers given, are relevant to your room over the garage. However, I don't think that Suite has some of the tools used to get the end results. Your exterior has little additions, such as the front full roof overhang (under the gable with the double windows), and the gable overhanging soffit at the west end. All of the extras require workarounds with Suite. My example is done with HDA10, using only the basic tools available in HDA and Suite. All of my settings (ceiling heights, roof pitches, etc.) are just guesses at what your own settings are. I could not open your plan to see the actual settings. Too many things to explain, but I could upload my plan if you want to look at my settings. You would only be able to open it (I think??) if you download the free trial version of HDA2016. Seeing the strategy used, might be helpful to you.

Simplest way... You have Pro, so use the custom countertop and add molding. If you want the 'table like' face below the counter, use soffits or custom countertop for that, too (and you can also add molding to that, as well).

It means that, I don't understand what it is that you are really wanting to do.

Add a soffit above it, and put the crown molding on that.

???

The library has that exact item. In my library, it is found under: Interiors> Accessories> Kitchen Items> Cabinet Trim.

Yes, you can do the steeple with the tools that Suite has. It does involve a 3rd floor (and also a 'room within a room') but it also uses some trickery to get the roof to build correctly.

Is this what you are trying to produce?

Soffits are good for everything!

Ha Ha! I would rather he gave me a winning super lotto ticket!

Thanks, Mick. It was a pita.
