Thanks! I never would have figured that out! --Lane

Here is a screenshot of my problem. It appears an additional foundation slab and walls are generating below the foundation. The door drops down the the 2nd foundation floor. Upstairs the absolute floor elevation is 16", because this floor sits 16" above the main existing floor. It appears the upstairs heights are set correctly, but the foundation level is a real problem. The plan is attached. Thanks in advance for any help! --Lane Apollino Remodel Plan 2026.zip

Hello, I need a little help with two things. 1. How do I get the long vertical extension of the retaining wall to go only the top of the retaiing wall? (long vertical oval). 2. I need to fix the roof intersection at the small circle. The screenshot shows the problems, and the plan is attached. Thanks in advance! --Lane Apollino Remodel Plan 2026.zip

Thanks, I will see how it works for me.

Thanks so much!

I want to change the height of the Porch Railings. Currently they are 31" above the Deck Surface. The Deck Surface is 5" below the Sub-Floor. It appears the deck railings are referencing the Sub-Floor instead of the Deck Surface. In the dialog box, the "Default Height" is checked and grayed out so I can't make a change. Screenshot attached as well as the plan file. How can I change the height of the Porch Railings? Thanks, Lane Cozy Cabin Plan File.zip

That does it. Thanks!

1. How can I get the log siding to extend upwards so it covers the rafter? 2. How do I lower the gable wall railing beam? Currently it projects into the roof. 3. A few other issurs on the 2nd screenshot. Screenshots attached. Zip file attached. Thanks in advance, Lane Cozy Cabin Plan File For Zipping.zip

Gene, They are all on the same floor. I am going to play around with what John Angelo Burke said.

Today's problem is getting windows to mull. In the attached screenshot, the windows are not mulled; I keep getting an error message saying they need to be within 24" and aligned vertically and horizontally, which they are. So I aligned all of them, then added the 3" casing. The trouble is the casing is applied horizontally between the windows. How can I remove that casing and keep the perimeter casings? I have no idea where the red lines in the screenshot came from. Thanks, Lane

Nope. I built a lot of homes in Orange County, around 250. Are you from this area?

Pretty complicated, but as I have said for years, "Chief Architect puts the guesswork into CAD Drafting"

Thanks everyone. I would have replied sooner but I am in the hospital trying to beat cancer, so if I do, I can die of something else. --Lane

i changed some foor heights, and the result is almost there, but I still have (I think it;s the floor) sticking through the roof. Now I need also to figure out the dormer I added. I can't attach the file because it wont zip down to under 14 bytes. thanks just the same, I'll keep plaing with it. --Lane

I have the 2nd floor floor set to 1/8", so I don't know why the walls are projecting through the roof. Thanks in advance for your help. --Lane
