New Posts Machado, John's Avatar (Old) Grid disappears inside house
What am I doing wrong? If I draw four exterior walls (a box) the grid is no longer shown inside the "box". If I change the walls to interior, the grid appears. If I change them back to exterior, the grid disappears again. Why and is there a "work around"

New Posts tn_yank's Avatar (Old) Wall Color
1. It seems that every time I color the inside surface of an exterior wall (eg "paint" a room), the selected color is painted on the entire wall, not just in that particular room. Any fix for that? 2. Slightly off topic, but........ in a previ

New Posts Egan, Howard's Avatar (Old) Can't delete wall segment w/o deleting all walls.
When I select a single exterior wall segment, All the walls get delted. I used the break wall tool to create a break, then tried it and got the same results. FYI, I also cannot delete a door once it's been added. I can undo it right after adding, but in

New Posts Downey, M's Avatar ** 45 deg. angled walls
I used another program 10 yrs. ago, and found it very simple to cut 90deg corners off of exterior walls at a 45 degree angle. I was able to choose the "cut off length" (sorry if the terminoligy is incorrect,, I'm not an engineer) By choosing the length fr

All of my studs in the framing editor look fine except two spots. On the rear of my house there is a 2.7:12 shed dormer on a 10:12 roof. To fill in the sides of the dormer I used a wall profile that has an inverted triangle attached to the top. When I

As a former Super user, I was so happy to see the Wall Break feature in Platinum Pro - which I used the Wall Break successfully on the front of the house. Now, I have to break the wall on the right side of the house to define 3 rooms. I keep getting a "P

I'm trying to add an interior wall from one exterior wall to another, and every time I do, it changes it to an *exterior* wall? If it's going to pull magic on me, it ought to at least pop up something and tell me *why* it thinks it needs to do that so I
