Eddieg Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Any ideas as to what happened to cause part of my exterior wall materials to disappear on part of the elevation view? I cannot find the cause of the problem. See attachment. I have HD Architectural 2023Front elevation.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddieg Posted August 12, 2023 Author Share Posted August 12, 2023 Thank you Eric, but I don't have any new messages. The last one was on June 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddieg Posted August 12, 2023 Author Share Posted August 12, 2023 Thank you Eric! As you can tell I'm an amateur at Home designer. Many years ago I taught using AutoCAD but HD is totally different and being a lot older I'm sure I'm slower at catching onto things. I should mention this is my second set of plans using HD and on this one I've had trouble with "Automatically Rebuild Foundation". I've turned it off and on several times and that might be my problem, I don't know. I tried to attach a copy of my plan but it said it is larger than 14 MB. However in File Explorer it says the PLAN file is only 16,591 KB. So I saved a screen capture as a jpeg file and attached it. I hope this helps.

Eddieg Posted August 13, 2023 Author Share Posted August 13, 2023 Thank you Eric, for the time you spent on my plan! I am a retired builder and agree 100% on your suggestions to make the roof line simpler with fewer gables, to lower the cost! I am also a traditionalist who likes an all brick home. Unfortunately, my wife insists on mixing materials and having a cut-up roof with gables. Do you know if there's a way, with Architectural 2023, to draw beams, under the little gable on the porch, that go from the posts on each side, up the slope of the soffit with the pitch of the roof? (I'm afraid that's as clear as mud) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddieg Posted August 14, 2023 Author Share Posted August 14, 2023 Eric, you have helped me so much, I hate to bother you with additional problems I'm having. I just realized that the porch foundation has disappeared! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
