David & Solver, Thanks for the feedback. It is appreciated.

With Home Designer Pro 2017, is there a way to establish layout sets and then toggle between those layout sets as you create say, the Architectural Floor Plan, Foundation Plan, Electrical Plan, Plumbing Plan, etc.? I currently have 166 Layout Sets in the file (as noted at the top of my "Layer Display Options" dialog box) but cannot find how to revert to a favorite set for each layout. I am hopeful that there is a way to establish a group of items to show on a layout and then be able to come back to that same group without having to scroll through the Layer Display Options dialog box and recheck / uncheck items each time I want to update a layout. I think I know the answer to my question but I thought I'd ask anyway. (perhaps one of the limiting factors of HD Pro and the solution is a more robust version?). Thanks for looking.

10-4 and thanks very much.

I am running Home Designer Professional 2015 (soon to upgrade to 2017). Is there a way to modify the floor assembly to include more than 2 components? I see options to use floor joists and sheathing but I have a need to show gypcrete with radiant floor heat in my building sections and details as well. I tried the Room Specification\Structure\Floor Structure Edit Button that takes you to the Floor Structure Definition pop-up. There I see Layers 1 & 2 where you can type in the thickness of your components (TJIs & plywood) but I don't see how to actually add another layer for the 1 1/2" of gypcrete. I also tried the same through the Edit Tab\Default Settings\Floor\Structure\Floor Structure Edit Button and I see the same info but no obvious way to add layers. I currently did a work-around by showing my flooring thickness as 2 1/8" (1 1/2" for gypcrete and 5/8" for a flooring material) but that does not properly capture the section I need. Any ideas or direction would be appreciated. Thanks, Eric.
