I understand what you want now but just do not understand why other then to make spaces "READ" larger than they are. I cannot fit my bed in a closet in a bedroom so by saying that bedroom is 120 sqft is misleading. the bedroom is 100 sqft and the closet is 20sqft; 2 separate spaces. room divider is an invisible wall that splits a space into 2 rooms by having and enclosed space so kitchen and living room with an invisible wall separating them. but the pantry in the kitchen is not part of the kitchen area nor is the closet in the living room or garage or hallway area a part of the room they are inside. I have never seen a house plan where the creator (Designer or architect) includes the closet sqft to the bedroom sqft. But to each their own I think the reason you cannot do what you want (unless manually add text on plan) is it is not normal for house plans.

all enclosed spaces are defined as rooms for sake of software. Not sure really what you are looking for. You can open up room definition box and turn off label and it will not be named nor show dims/area. And yes a closet is not a bedroom.... in architectural terms. they are 2 distinct rooms, just as your stairwell is if each end seals off with doors.

wall covering is for wall paper not paint. stripe is because you are using wall covering and it has variables for bottom & top. Delete Wall covering. turn off whatever get rid of it if there Easy way to paint a room is in the room dialogue edit screen go to material page and select WALL INT and or EXT and then select material and go to libray and find your color. OR open in 3d and spray paint it with the ROOM selected and spray a wall not the stripe. But go into room

HOw would it be framed?

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

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.

maybe use CURVED Walls??

it will show up when you are in the floor plan and on second floor. IF does not show up Go into default settings. PLan settings. CLick show Living Area Label.

look at what you have selected for Post and beam part. Maybe play with those settings.

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.

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?
