Kenneth_L Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I have to open the library and hi-lite the rug then press ok (the dialog box then closes). Then move your cursor to where you want to place the rug and left click. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crojai Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Hate to add to this but I'm having the same problem...no problem so far with other items in the library...the knowledge base instructions don't seems to work in this instance...when I select a rug and move the cursor to the plan nothing happens...when I click over the room area it just overlays the room with the gray box...using Architectural 2017....tried Kenneth's suggestion but I just see the library window...no dialogue box.... Any help would be appreciated.... Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's August 2017 and I have the same problem but don't see an solution. The instructions in the knowledge base doesn't work for me either. If anyone found the solution would greatly appreciate it. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hassanzayan Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago When you're trying to place a rug in Home Designer (or Home Designer Pro), there's an important distinction to make: 1. Place a Rug Object first Go to the library path: Interiors → Accessories → Rugs and choose a basic rug shape (e.g., rectangular). Drop that on your floor plan (HomeTalk Forum, HomeTalk Forum). 2. Then apply a rug material Open the Materials or Flooring catalog under Flooring → Rugs (or manufacturer catalogs). Select a rug pattern or material, then apply it to the placed rug object (HomeTalk Forum). If you try placing a material directly from the rug swatches in the material browser without an object in place, nothing will happen—that’s why dragging a pattern by itself doesn’t stick. Toggle to camera (3D) view if you’re applying a wall‑to‑wall style pattern—it works like paint with a spray can in that mode (HomeTalk Forum). TL;DR Workflow: Insert a rug from Interiors → Accessories → Rugs. Assign your desired rug material from Flooring → Rugs. If painting floors wall-to-wall, use camera view spray method. Following these steps should solve the "no drag" issue and let you customize rug finishes easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
