BayouBengal Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I have a bay window that I want to remove from my plan. The bay window has a roof over it. I've removed all of the walls for the bay window (even the foundation), but the roof over it remains. Is there any way to remove this roof other than using "Auto Rebuild Roofs" which will remove the bay window roof but messes up all kinds of other roof lines in the process. I'm using Home Designer Suite 2022 - Build 23.4.1.8x64 - April 21, 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 If they show up in the floor plan view, you should be able to delete each plane. I don't know what Suite will let you make for changes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayouBengal Posted August 20 Author Share Posted August 20 Thanks, but the roof doesn't show up on the floor plan and I've removed all the walls on each plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Try going up a floor? I'd be more worried about that roof to the left of that over the deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo_Ann Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 How did you "draw" your roof lines to begin with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayouBengal Posted August 21 Author Share Posted August 21 I drew the plans initially about five years ago. I remember having to use some tricks with invisible walls to get the roof how I wanted it which explains the over the deck without any support but I don't remember how precisely the roof over the bay window was achieved. We built the house during Covid and did without a lot of things we wanted due to material and labor shortages; so now, we're doing an addition/renovation to get to the house of our dreams. Knocking out the bay window and adding onto the MBR is part of that. I don't need the drawing to be precise, I'm just trying to get something that I can present to the HOA.

Jo_Ann Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 You need to review and note the roof settings on the walls. Then you need to turn "auto rebuild roof" back on. That is the only way you will eliminate the bay window roof (with Suite). It will then be necessary to reapply the roof wall settings that you noted.
