  1. I forgot to mention I marked the inside walls of the brick columns no room definition. I think they were causing most of the problem.
  2. I defined the lower level as a porch which fixed most of the overhang that was missing and the side overhangs, I fixed by adjusting the attic walls on the sides. I attached a zip file of the plan. Exeter - CA.zip
  3. There’s a training video on Chief Architect that explains this. Training Videos / Framing an Overbuild Using a Truss Base
  4. The Tudor Arch works great, thanks for the info.
  5. With a little work you can do it in the window specification, shape. The only thing is the casing in the peak flattens off a couple inches and it will only let the side offsets go to 29 1/2" instead of 30 on the 60" window. Untitled 1.planUntitled 1.plan
  6. I made a copy in place of the poly solid/valance, resized it in plan view a half inch smaller than original and used the solid subtraction tool to remove the inside. Chief has a video under CAD Tools, subtracting poly lines that overlap. You could probably just use a cabinet valance from the library instead of the solid.
  7. I created a valence with a Poly solid and a molding polyline to match the room crown molding. This would take learning poly solids and molding polylines.
  8. Not sure about the glitches, but here is my version of what you are looking for drawn in X13. WINDOW PASS-THROUGH 56" WIDE FLOOR TO BOTTOM -1/4" NO SILL, THIS LEAVES A HOLE IN FLOORING THAT I COVERED WITH FLOOR MATERIAL REGION TO MATCH LAUNDRY FLOORING FRAME BOTTOM WIDTH 0" SHAPE TO MATCH STAIRS, LEFT HEIGHT 102 1/2" RIGHT HEIGHT 67 1/2"
  9. Is This the look you're trying to achieve? I drew roof planes and made attic wall invisible along with some other editing. Give me a call tomorrow if you'd like me to help you figure it out more. 2022-10-21 - Mary Ruth Smith.zip
