RollingStone Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I've added a doghouse style exit for the basement, but HD is not allowing me to add a roof over it. I want a gable roof to match the other roof lines. See screen clip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 You have Home Designer Pro, so the thing to do, if you require a roof, is to manually draw one. Get over the notion that the software does things for you. The truth is you use its tools to acquire the results you need and want. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollingStone Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 OK- how do I do that? Do I add on the first floor plan level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollingStone Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 I added two roof planes - seems labor intensive - are there shortcuts for sizing/overhangs etc? Now a roof but also a hole where there should be a gabel end. See photo. I specified full gabel wall in dialogue box. How do I get Chief to put in this wall?

DavidJPotter Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Draw the missing wall using your wall tool. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 If that is a room, and Roof Over This Room is checked, you should get a roof if Auto Build Roofs is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 do you have the Display of Attic Walls turned off ? cos if you have a room and a roof it should auto build , perhaps you just can't see it? M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
