Detailed component layout for access ramp

Recommended Posts

I used Home Designer Pro to design an barrier-free access ramp.  Now I want to see the detailed positioning and dimensions of all the components - the joists, the deck rim, the baluster, posts, the top and bottom rail, etc.  All these items are listed in the materials list but I can not figure out how to get HD to make me a blue-print type detailed diagram showing all the members.

 

Also the material list always shows linear feet regardless of what reporting option I use (cut list, buy list, etc. has no effect).

 

Any advice greatly appreciated.

The software does not do that, you do it manually using text and arrows in a back-clip elevation window, like the rest of us. The software is relatively easy to use and learn but it is just a tool that one uses to do one's graphic communication.
