laurenmajor Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 I have been manually creating the roof on a house I am creating remodel plans for. In the process of doing so, I have run into issues of the roof planes not joining with the other planes (image 1), and also the planes cutting into my interior rooms (image 2). I am new to this software, so if you have any suggestions on how to correct these issues please let me know. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 It will help everyone if you put the title and year of the program you are using (Architectural, Pro, 2020, 2021, etc.), as each program has different options. Then I would strongly suggest spending some time with the reference manual and built in help menu so you aren't always waiting for someone to respond.

laurenmajor Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 Sorry about that. I am using Home Designer Pro 2021. I have been searching for a fix to this problem for quite some time now, so I thought this forum might be a good place to look for answers as well.

DavidJPotter Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 You now need to read up on how the "Join Roofs" tool works and how it is not designed to work to finish up your roofs. A good place to start is your provided "Reference Manual" found under the "Help" Menu. Read the section on "Manual Roofs and Manual Roof Tools", then find and watch some tutorials about manual roof editing on the Home Designer Website - Knowledge Base and via searches at YouTube for such videos done by me and other Chief/HD users posted there. Only then will you be able to figure out and finish your roof design. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 You will find a lot of it in the manual. As I am sure "Solver" will add his comment, update your signature to show the title so it will appear in every post. Sometimes the "join roof" tool can help you as well.

LawB10 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Just from the images shown, the question I ask is why are you manually building the roof? Also it helps alot if you upload the plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
