Quick visualization! This program is for the amateur enthusiast who is not looking to create detailed framing plans for decks, rather it is for creating and viewing spaces and landscape layouts. It’s tools are towards general concepts of homes, decks and other outdoor living in terms of space planning.If you need something to create detailed “construction documents” you will need Home Designer Pro where you then have manual control of framing and roof design elements (one always gets what they pay for). But if you just need to see how things will fit and look, this one is for you.
Not as advertised Okay, the software is okay, but they advertised over 3600 realistic plants to use, which is the reason I wanted it. Got it set up and there are only about 50 and none of them are what was promised.To get the “3600 life like plant images”, you have to order the $400. version of this program. Not interested.I was only using this to get an idea of doing my flower beds, but instead of using this software, I’m back to an ink pen and blank paper, as before, drawing my plans by hand and guessing.Should have just saved my money. I could have bought more plants instead of this software.
Doesn’t Install Just purchased this software and chose this downloadable version so I could use it this weekend. Unfortunately, I downloaded the software and it won’t install, (three tries and an error message every time during the install process). Asked Amazon to refund but they won’t because they say I now have the software key since it was a download purchase. Too bad the software won’t install…makes the key pretty useless. Now I’m told I will have to call the developer directly. Beware of downloadable software on Amazon.
