VWCALBUG Posted Monday at 09:59 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:59 PM I've read up on a lot of the articles and help for parapet walls on a flat roof. I generally have it working alright, albeit what a slow and PITA approach! I guess not too many people using home designer do this, otherwise they would develop some better functionality! Rant over.... So specifically, I have different roof elevation heights and intersecting walls that the corners and wall caps I just can't get them to render correctly. There's variations all over this roof that I believe many places it's combining the walls even though they are different heights. I've added breaks on many of these walls, but they eventually just combine together again. For the parapets I defined a wall type that has a stucco interior, I suspect it's not handling in some cases the interior/exterior wall positions are different because the way these elevations come together. I'm not sure how to rectify this or describe it, so I'll post a bunch of pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted Monday at 11:11 PM Share Posted Monday at 11:11 PM Tips: Attach your plan file. Always say what program and year you are using (like Pro 2020). Vector View often shows alignment and other issues better than Standard View. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VWCALBUG Posted Tuesday at 02:40 AM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 02:40 AM I use Home Designer Pro 2023 here's the attached plan. You'll see in 3D almost anywhere there's an intersecting wall of a differing height, either the top cap or sides of the walls aren't right.

solver Posted Tuesday at 04:17 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:17 AM Start with a general plan cleanup. Align walls one over the other. Reset wall top and bottom heights. Fix the foundation. Reset railing walls to non railing walls, or use railing walls everywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
