scottb613 Posted Saturday at 11:40 PM Share Posted Saturday at 11:40 PM Hi Folks, I have two intersecting gables - one is the great room with a vaulted ceiling, and the other is the kitchen and dining room with flat ceilings. How do I get the vaulted portion to continue all the way to the wall with the carpets hung on them - uninterrupted? The ceiling line from the right of the image - to the bottom of the truss - should continue to all the way the wall - eliminating the sheet rocked triangle. Home Designer 2021 Thanks.

scottb613 Posted yesterday at 04:24 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 04:24 AM Hi Folks, Well AI can do a corrected render based on my previous image (with very explicit instructions) - however - I still should be able to correct the ceiling line on the model. Here is what I am attempting to do. Thanks. Regards, Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y-g-m-n Posted yesterday at 08:33 AM Share Posted yesterday at 08:33 AM How did you make the vaulted ceiling? Ceiling plane or UNchecked Flat Ceiling? Try ceiling plane as you can force it to do what you want. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try ceiling plane as you can force it to do what you want. Hi Folks, I haven't messed with this software in a while - as I only got into this to design my own retirement home. I did use the basic room settings. I'm pretty sure I haven't used ceiling planes before - let me do some research and see if I can figure them out. Do they work in the basic Home Designer Suite? Thank you kindly. Regards, Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb613 Posted yesterday at 03:57 PM Author Share Posted yesterday at 03:57 PM Hi Folks, Crap - there are no ceiling planes in the basic suite - at least from what I can gather. My only alternative might be to hobble something together in Blender and import it - I've done that before for other custom objects, but it is truly a PITA getting things to line up.

I just looked at the software - to purchase the upgrade - as there were a couple of other things I needed "Pro" for - like custom deck posts. IIRC it was about $500.00 for the "Pro" version. HOLY SMOKES - now a subscription @ $500.00 a year - what a CASH GRAB. That leaves me and probably many more "hobbyists" out. This is the reason I still use "Paint Shop Pro" instead of "Photoshop" - - - no subs - - - I don't do subs that perpetually drain your bank account. Years down the road - when this is all done - and I just want to look at my old model - I couldn't even open the model without buying another sub - no thanks. I'll just build the new ceiling in Blender and import it - or - perhaps it's time to move this entire model into Blender - which has a far better ray traced render engine. Thanks again - I do appreciate the response. I guess I'm out... Regards, Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
