I cannot open your plan as I do not have HD 2026 nor will I get it. from screen shots. Looks like you need to just REBUILD framing and let software delete old framing and make new based on roof. In roof settings lock on PITCH. Let it figure the rest as pitch is what you want. The room settings will dictate everything else. Also better to set all these settings in the default settings for the plan. Then you only tweak those things that are different from the norm. Save as HD2025 and maybe I can play with it.

I have 2 bathrooms like this. Tried 2 new walls that did not have sheetrock on sides that touch - program did not like that very much and would delete first wall drawn. so I end up just using SOFFIT and went from floor to ceiling. Looks great.

hard to answer without pictures and maybe copy of plan. For the rooms what do you have ceiling height set at? My suggestions to try is make all rooms with a wall height of 1.5" base plate + 3" for 2 top plates + 92.625 for pre-cut studs = 97.125" Do not worry about high side at this point Set roof pitch at your 1.5" per foot. draw outer walls. Then generate roof using the auto roof function. IT will create attic walls above normal walls on high side. See you say 16ft but is that out to out or inside or what? Also, why so important to have exactly 10ft tall wall? Studs come in 2 lengths for 10ft. 120" or 104 5/8" PRetty much always have bottom plate and 2 top plates at 1.5" thick each. So for your 10ft wall you have to buy 120" studs and cut everyone - adds labor cost and probably a wavy ceiling at edge.

did yo make new wall with out drywall on one side? for the look you can "PAINT" with the "stud wall with insulation" Shows studs and pink insulation in between. -
maybe your view is on floor 0 and not floor 1? Should see number 1 like in attached pic. If you see 0 click up arrow to change floor that you see

the back wall as drawn is on first floor but you have few windows in tha wall drawn on 2 floor. windows have to be drawn on same floor as wall.

Home Designer 2026 and beyond will be subscription based
y-g-m-n replied to BalutFX's topic in Sales Related Questions
since subscription based and no need to rename you just jump in and give your yearly money and get the latest version no matter what. They do they need to name it by year anymore? Should just be Home Designer . What do they do about file structure though? In the past, the older version could not rear the update version files, or library stuff. what happens here if you do not update on their schedule? Wonder if these companies who change to subscription-based think of everything. And me who only thought magazines and newspapers should be the only thing on subscriptions. Wonder how the bean counters feel now? how is profit versus previous years? -
when I put my default to cut list - that is what I get every single one and the length. Does not combined a bunch of short ones into something that can be cut out of say a 12ft long board ...
-
what are your settings under default for material list? See attached as example
-
maybe check what layers are turn on to be visible in the 3d scree.
-
customize a corner cabinet - something with shelves would be nice
-
there is a setting somewhere - defaults or ?? where you can change the material to a cut list which would then show every item and length what you have now is TOTAL board feet to buy.

I understand now what you want. Tried playing with software and got frustrated. Best I could do was to play with each rooms absolute floor height. weird how it loves to make concrete stem walls in lieu of wood beams on posts.
