1 - cannot move posts unless they were inserted as items - if part of a railing wall they get equally spaced based on max post spacing You can make railing wall without posts and first add in Columns from the library to fit and locate as you like then draw railing wall without posts. 2 - not sure what you mean - have plan view w/ roof planes visible? 3 - how did you create that railing wall with posts? If railing wall then go to wall edit dialogue and go to post part and select post to ceiling since you do not have flat ceiling under roof for a beam - Beams in HD tend to be horizontal only 4- see #3.

or you can change height in each room by opening room edit dialogue

Trying to create a roof plane with two different rafter sizes
y-g-m-n replied to JohnEisenbraun's topic in Q&A
or make them all 2x6 and then add ceiling plan in vaulted room to bring ceiling lower than underside of rafters. This does not make sense - is this vaulted room outside Hip wall inline and same ceiling top plate height? Something has to be lower or higher, Not sure how you can have the same top plate height, ridge height, roof pitch, overhang, soffit face height, etc With different roof Rafter lumber sizes. Something has to give as that 7.25" versus 5.5" rafter difference has to be somewhere... PS most rafters are made from 2x10 in my area and supported in attic to keep free span to spec. -

so the rafter depth changes in the middle of a room or at the walls? maybe post actual pictures of what you have. -
might not be able to in the HD series. Unless try making a landing at the top the sane size as your top step and then the stairs can come off of it... might look right. HD just not setup to build the extra top tread when the top level will suffice... I hate to say it but might be easier in long run to change the way you build them and save some $ on the cost of that last tread
-
the top step is one down from top floor/landing review all the stair options screen gives you.

Objects on ceiling over rail of loft- need to remove

Help with roof lines? Beginner unable to figure out the software...
y-g-m-n replied to idrivea911's topic in Q&A
to adjust roof pitch. Go to 2d floor plan. Select wall where the roof plane starts in the top plate ( bottom of slope) OPen up the edit screen for this wall. Go to structure tab. Adjust roof pitch to what ever you want. DO this for all walls that do not have the default roof pitch IF wall is a gable end then select gable. And as always for me.. After auto roofs is done I may have to adjust the roof planes it generates to what I want. -

y-g-m-n replied to JessicaB's topic in Tips & Techniques
look like "attic wall" parts from railing. hard to say but turn off auto generate attic walls in default settings for walls. then delete them. if that does not work might need your plan. how did you make loft? 2nd floor right? -
Well the white planes are the ceiling below and the gap between this whit surface and bottom of 2nd walls is where Floor structure would be placed. Joists and plywood or such. You may have them turned off. Also you may be looking at this in 3d while on the 1st floor. See what level you are at.
-
Not sure but probably one where you have to play with things to find the culprit. My guess is they are made on the first floor level not the foundation or level 0.. And I am not sire if that can be fixed...

Did you try making those cuppola as a DORMER?
