Hello, I am using a sill profile from the standard catalogue. The sill leaves a bit of external wall showing, is there something obviously wrong? 20221110 - Asbuilt Dalton Plan.plan

Will do thanks.

As simple as that. Thank you sooooo much!

Can anyone help regarding the issue I'm facing when trying to draw an existing loft conversion. The exterior walls don't stop at the roof. I have created a 3rd floor but kept the roof at the floor below. I tried the same but lowering the roof after adding the floor but the same thing happens. Eventually it will have ashlar walls front and rear (knee walls I think you call them across the pond...). Pic 1 shows before, Pic 2 shows after. You can see the issue. Plan attached if it helps. Thanks in advance. Pic2.pdf Pic 1.pdf 20220420 - Taylor Existing.plan

Hi all, does anyone have any suggestions on how to create the attached roof over the first floor window in this typical british REALLY OLD thatched roof house. Thanks in advance... i attach a picture of what I am trying to achieve and the file I have created so far. Existing.plan

The specific file is attached now, if you look you'll see the rear roof is way too high. I though i could split it into a double apex roof to make it work better. Any help appreciated. Thanks 20180101 - Larger Design With Furniture.plan
