no return grills so I just use the 2 way for everything

Maybe try to find a molding and install in this basement room as crown? OR use the SHAPE objects from Library OR if you need a super accurate model you may need Chief Architect. Not sure as where I live, we just have monolithic slabs on grade
-
for your basement wall make a new wall definition of what you will end up with. Example: CMU on outside or concrete Then insulation foam board then air gap then studs then sheetrock
-
for others S means STEP monolithic concrete slab
-
rotate terrain. Then add North Arrow. House plan is always square to "screen" for ease of creating and dimensioning.

Manual dormer walls cut through custom ceiling plane
y-g-m-n replied to turbodig's topic in Tips & Techniques
I dunno but try this. Make this vaulted dormer room from first floor with high ceiling. Ensure room divider under the vaulted ceiling beam and that defines the dormer room set the ceiling height up to top plate above those windows you have. check roof over this room uncheck flat ceiling & Shelf Ceiling might need to make dormer walls pony walls where lower part is room divider and upper is whatever t needs to be. PLay with it as what you want isnot intuitive but I am pretty sure if you have things created from First floor it will work better. Or manual edit wall in 3d views by clicking it and moving the corners up. I had similar issue with stair case the just barely the bottom made its way into a room at ceiling and program did not want to enclose with walls. I forget what I did but after while playing I got what I wanted. -
try drawing curved wall first and have radius to outside main layer selected with the radius you want. then make sure you have your 90-degree corner it will snap to that. Then move it to where you want and draw the straight walls off of it. I use CAD elements to note tangent points in your case at the 1m mark on one side draw vertical line and then the other horizontal and then use fillet command to find the corner aka center of your curved wall and it also shows where straight walls start from. The curved wall feature needs some love from programmers as it is not easy to manipulate and place them how you really want. Should have adjustments like a CAD arc or circle have. change chord length, angle, radius to main layer, center point etc. and you can lock one down once happy.

in plan view click it. it will show some dims that locate it and if you look around object a small grey triangle thingy. Grab this triangle and rotate. it ill rotate based on your snap angle setting if on or free if off. see screen shot below. Note many other ways to move etc are in the help screen. Peeps should read it or use it when inside a command

Do you have Door LABEL turned on in display options?

Oh and above I messed up when I said room defualt I meant for particular room itself on the plan you open the room edit screen and change floor level. After you changed floor level did you rebuild foundation? Turn on step markers so you can see where there is step in slab. Sometimes you have to edit the AUTOMATIC formed foundation as it is not perfect. So I attached screen shots of s simple house I did in HD PRO 2025 Floorplan portion showing porch which is under main roof Then foundation showing steps and stem wall for garage on one side. Then room spec - I have room type set to PORCH. And finally 3d showing lower porch floor. note once you get floor right TURN off AUTO REBUILD for foundation Sometimes ya just have to play with it. Software developers in charge of slabs should come out to the Southeast where majority of foundations are slabs and see how they are designed and built. God bless you if you want a post tension slab

below with big black arrow pointing is where I have lowered floor before for a particular room. Makes for great patios and porches.
