2 things to check. In the STAIR edit Dialogue - Tab for ARROW - Check box for include ARROW at top. Then on main menu TOOLS go to DISPLAY OPTIONS Scroll down to STAIRS & RAMPS, UP/DOWN Arrows and make sure you have a Check mark under DISP Column to turn it on in whatever view you are in. Most things are pretty simple it is just finding them.. So if you cannot see something see if it is turned OF in the display options. IF on there go to item and open its edit dialogue as normally everything you need to edit item is in there.

maybe easiest way is to: click on the NICHE and open edit screen . Then go to FRAME tab and click them on and give them thickness of tile you will use and then adjust material for it and you will get it all the way around. here you can set the BACK material as well in lieu of custom backsplash.

Need to read the HELP screens and search attics... which by definition are not allowed to have rooms etc. If you want to turn Attic into livable space you needed to create it as net floor level. Check your defaults settings for structures and rooms etc to set ceiling heights

I prefer to just manual edit the roof planes...

What software version are you using?

question?

Change them to PANELS and then change the PANEL material to what you like. click on these and open the edit screen for these "Railing Walls" Go to RAIL tab and at top select PANELS for the railing. Then go to material tab and change the PANEL material to whatever looks like what you want. Check in the bonus stuff for WIRE AND LATTICE plenty in there that may be close to what you need. OR find a picture file and edit a material to have it.

go to CHIEF ARCHITECT forums and ask. This forum is for Home Designer big difference in software

I suggest asking Chief Architect peeps

this is when editing roof planes using HD-PRO make it easy. Maybe upload your plan and someone can just edit your roof planes and upload it back into thread

need picture of what HD is is giving you now. Search Gable Roof in the help as there is a gable line you can draw parallel to roof edge to denote where it should create gables.

that is what sucks... the $500 per year With old purchasing model the upgrades were had for like you said $100-$125 - more reasonable fee having already invested into the software Tend to be a perpetual customer but it is my choice.

I was bored No way to your dims so please take with grain of salt or a pound of salt. Point is I did this all by tweaking roof planes. So once roof planes are close. That would be the 2 gables (4 planes) and the shed are close I use the Roof Plane JOiner tool to get then right. When all done and looks good I rebuild framing. you see the valley rafter where the shed meets either Gable... HTH If nto you need to play more until you get it.

You need to put a hole in the roof plane for the Gable end which is almost acting like a DORMER. Or cut this shed roof plane around the gale plane.. Insert some break points where it intersects the gable and then move the part under the gable. Pretty simple actually... Think of it like a slab or other enclosed polyline item and add and subtract corner point and re-shape the roof plane.

If you create it using manual roof planes with any HD pro version Then when done with that go back to framing tool and AUTO frame it will add framing for the roof planes you created. No need to upgrade I can see
