LawB10 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Open the living room specification box and check "ceiling over this room". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Nothing wrong with your plan -- I was bored and decided to see how it might look a bit different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidJPotter Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 The missing tool in Suite is called "Custom Ceiling Planes" which only Home Designer Pro and Chief Premier have. You can repair the interior vaulted ceiling by covering the void with a custom slanted soffit (found under cabinet tools), It will have to be made very thin, probably 1" thick so it only appears to the interior, otherwise it will also be seen in exterior and exterior overview views but can be done in Suite with ease.

hoosierxsooner Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 How do you tilt the soffit? Pam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Pam, my apologies in that I assumed that Suite was enabled for soffits to be slanted. After checking in Suite 2017 I found that this is not the case. In the ensuing versions since I last looked this feature has been removed by Chief Inc. I suppose your only choice is to make a symbol using Sketch Up and then importing that object into Suite as a symbol and then placing that symbol where you need it to cover the gable hole in the ceiling or you can upgrade to Architectural 2018 that does have the sloped soffit feature in it. I am sorry for the misinformation earlier posted by me. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
