Words of advice for a newbie

[smann7]

Hello, so glad I found this forum.  So I am new to any design software.  I recently bought home pro 19 and immediately went to work trying to design a remodel I have coming up and a big pole barn.

 

i only have maybe 10 hrs on CA so far, while I have the walls, doors, window stuff down I am having a hard time with the roof design on the remodel and I can’t figure out how to purlin the walls of the pole barn.

 

i am having fun experimenting with the software but I need these two designs done for upcoming projects.  I guess my main question is, other than the tutorial CA videos, what’s the best and easiest resource to become proficient with this software?

 

thanks in advance.
