Home Designer Pro 2020. In the attached screenshot I have inserted a wide single awning window and two narrow double awning windows, but the symbols are different. The former has attached only to the framing while the latter have attached to the entire wall. The latter is what I want. I tried changing the insert depth in Window Specification/Sash but it didn't work. Any suggestions?

You are seeing a dimension line.

Select the far left dimension as shown. Note the circled spot where that dimension has located a corner far down the side. Select that diamond and drag it down to the corner pointed to by the arrow.

 

Not sure why it's doing that. I'd send the plan in for Chief to look at.

SOLVED. In my Wall Type Definition I just needed to move the House Wrap layer from the Exterior Layers group down to the Main Layers group. This causes the window and door symbols to attach across the air gap but sit inside the brick veneer. The dimension line problem was easily fixed by selecting the dimension leader line, clicking on the grey box, and moving it to the correct position (the corner of the wall).
