RickHoek Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Hello, I hope this is the correct location to ask this question. I have my plans done but struggling with a couple of things. Is someone willing to show me rather than just fix it? I want to learn what I am doing wrong, or help me find the correct software menu. I have searched the forums and help. Thanks in advance.

RickHoek Posted August 29 Author Share Posted August 29 Yes. @rwdozierYou are correct. I have watched those and it still is not behaving as expected. Thanks for your note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwdozier Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Chief version? What exactly is the issue you are experiencing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBCooper Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 You could try posting your plan here and someone may be able to help you out. You will probably need to either zip up the plan or post it online somewhere because of the forum limits on file size. There is also personal training available from Chief ($150/hr but probably not available on weekends): https://www.chiefarchitect.com/training/ You could also check out the "offering services" section or make a post on "seeking services": https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/forum/16-offering-services/ https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/forum/15-seeking-services/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickHoek Posted Sunday at 08:41 PM Author Share Posted Sunday at 08:41 PM I am working with Home Designer Pro 2013. I have a wall needing a gable to it. I clicked the full gable wall in the menu as shown. But the gable does not show up in the 3D views. I am confused on why this feature does not work. Can anyone guide me to make a correction? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBCooper Posted Sunday at 10:50 PM Share Posted Sunday at 10:50 PM Do you have "auto rebuild" turned on for your roofs? You should be able to find it in the "build roof" dialog. If auto rebuild is off, changing the settings in the wall dialog won't actually change your roofs until you rebuild them. Same as moving a wall or pretty much anything else that might affect your roofs. If you do have auto rebuild turned on, then it should work so you might want to post your plan so that someone can check it out. There are some more obscure settings that may or may not affect your situation, such as having made roof baseline polylines or the minimum alcove size. BTW, HD Pro 2013 is pretty old at this point so there probably are not going to be a lot of people that still have it. Some of the advice you get may not work for you. Also, there is a separate forum for Home Designer and you might find someone still using an old version there: https://hometalk.chiefarchitect.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
