PaulNDebbie Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I'm working with Home Designer Suite 2018 I have both a garage and a work shop with a roof, but no ceilings. How can I put in a hanging fluorescent lights that will hand down from the ceiling and not take the roofs angle? Anyway to make an invisible ceiling?

You simply place the lighting symbol where you want it in plan view and then adjust it height from the floor in a camera view. With the garage's ceiling turned off, the lighting fixture should then seek out the bottom of a roof plane which now visually defines the vaulted ceiling.
