in settings somewhere where in it selects ROOM before anything else So if you have cursor over object you want but grabs one nearby Click TAB and it should cycle thru objects near cursor.

for garage roof: Click outer wall and open the object sceen. Then click on ROOF tab. then click HELP lower right Read up on Extend Slope Downward, shed roof & High Gable Me I would just manual edit roof planes over house and drag its right side down over garage and past exterior wall. Then set outer edge to match overhang I wanted. It may cut the outer wall and shorten it or have a gap over this wall and you will need to extend that wall up. IT is about playing with the tools you are giving to find the way to make it look like you want.

what format is this ARCHITECT plan? From HD software or something else? Professional should be able to open ay of the lower tier HD plan files.

not sure what you mean? you say 16" difference in top plate height. Do you want them the same? raise the roof 16" on the lower one to have matching eaves. They would do this by adding a short 16" wall on top of plate to short side.

UNCHECK: Walls, Main Layer Only So make sure that one is not checked as it overrides all the wall viewing options

I doubt it that is an extreme detail I have never seen DRAWN on plans. They are specified with words and that is it. Normally the concrete foundation crew figures it out and puts them in per spec

turn off auto dimensions. Also learn to play with the DISPLAY OPTIONS feature which turns on and off visible layers in the current type view, be it plan or any of the 3d

use the hardwood plank - looks the same. or create new material by using online photos I mad my own from the actual tile I used from Home Cheapo pictures

Gotta ask - How are we making these curved beams? Bending Steel or ??

HOW? change roof material for that room. Select a metal roof you like he picture of and then paint it for custom colo or use stock library colors. Not sure what I am missing?

railing like you did. For strapping add that as custom backsplash or use a shape from library; size them and then place them where you desire.

update your library. shapes come standard

Talk to a home builder too so they can review and tell you what things cost and do not present other issues you or architect may not be aware of. builders will tell you what you need for plans etc

houses are built to framing. You are measuring to sheetrock on top of framing so you can change defaults to measure from framing or top surface I think it is called. Or just add or subtract 1/2" for each layer of wall sheetrock to you measured dims. Ie You measure width of room to be 10'-2" inside wall to wall. Framing would be 10'-3" inside (10'-2" + 1/2" + 1/2")

do you have examples? worse case draw manual roof plane.. but ou need something to hold up the outer corners...

My house can use some painting come on over I will give you a roller.

SO this is for fun?

why?

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.

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.
