bdillard Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Hello, I initially started using the software to figure out how much space I'd need and the size and possible shapes of the rooms I would need once I filled them with crap like tables, chairs, sofas, islands, vanities, beds etc. It has been wonderful for that! I didn't spend any time on colors or materials. Then I decided I might as well look at what the house would look like from the outside (hideous and boxy) so that I could modify the house a bit. I hadn't bothered to look before but I don't seem to have any roof or I'm using the wrong tool to look at it. I watched a video on it and it seemed straightforward but I'm doing something wrong. I see a ceiling but no roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdillard Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 Thanks - maybe the videos I was watching didn't need this step as it was a different version. All he did was draw a box that I thought was for the decking and boom he had a roof. Seemed like the guy building a deck did it the same way (how to make screens video). Chances are since I've only been playing with this software in my spare time for a week, I'm doing something obviously wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdillard Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 I did not. I drew a box like this guy did and he has a roof - I didn't see him create a roof in the video. I can send you more where they seemed to do the same thing and they get roofs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdillard Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 Found it - the people in the videos must have auto rebuild roof turned on. For anyone wondering - go to build roof and turn on auto - same with foundation if you want it automatically generated or as solver said go to build roof and manually select it.
