Thanks again Patricia, Making a ceiling with the floor tool makes sense, I will try it tonight when I get home. As far as making a trim that is not on the top or bottom of the wall...are you sure that making walls that are stacked on each other is the only way to do this? It seems odd to me that the software wouldn't let you set a height for a piece of molding. You can do so with windows and other "wall mounted" items. Still, thanks again. Do you work for Punch Software or are you just an expert who helps people out here ? Ed

>>...are you sure that making walls that are stacked on each other is the only way to do this? << Actually, there is another way. But it in no way excuses Punch for not providing a height setting in the trim section. There's been a thousand times I've wanted that option. The trick is to place a lower door (or window) casing in the wall, or in a separate thin and short wall-within-the-wall, Elevate the casing (door) to the height you want, then apply whatever custom trim profile you want to it. To make the casing, use the door (or window) designer and just draw one single casing piece at the bottom, making certain that it's a lower casing. You can check that by noting that the handles should be on the top line of the casing, not the bottom or sides. Save the piece. Apply it the same way you place a window or door. The disadvantage to this trick is that your wall will appear to have a very long door or window in it in 2D. It also doesn't go around corners very well, for obvious reasons. If you place it in the subject wall (instead of a separate thin wall), the molding will appear on both sides of the wall (because those components are designed to span the wall thickness). However the molding will break appropriately when encountering other windows or doors. Incidentally, the door (or window) designer can be used to make other neat stuff - like custom stairway bannisters and railings, and knee wall caps with molded edges (useful in some basements). I'd like to post the procedures for that here along with some example components that members could use, but it's too difficult to explain in text-only mode and there's no picture, nor file posting function here that I can find.

We bought Punch Home and Landscape Design and we have multiple rooms that should have different ceiling heights can you please tell me how to make this happen so that each room is visually correct and so the auto generate roof with fit more to the room sizes. Aimee
