Ceilings

Russell B. Updated by Russell B.

You can edit ceiling properties for rooms sketched in XactRemodel and XactRestore Studio. The following types are available:


  • Attic: Creates a barrel style ceiling. For assistance with these roofs, see our Create a vaulted or attic ceiling document.
  • Box: A flat ceiling, the most basic form. One measurement is available which sets the height of the entire ceiling.
    Note: Rooms added and dimensioned in the Estimate section can only have box ceilings.
  • Peaked: For rooms with a taller spot on the ceiling. Several variables are available to determine the slope and location of the peak.
  • Sloped: Like a peaked ceiling just without a peak in the ceiling. Two variables are available to determine the height of the short and tall wall.
  • Tray: Rooms that have a taller center ceiling area. Several variables are available to determine the height and where the tray sits.

Ceiling properties are accessed by opening the room properties window.


  1. Within a project, select Studio.
