not sure how to get a screen porch with screen and post it seam that you have to put a wall in and the only I can maybe get that to work is

to add screen doors that is not what I am looking for I would like 4x4 post with screen going to each post is there a way to add screen and post without a

wall added to it . I think a attach a picture I what I did with doors I don't like all the woof trim that comes with the door.

is there a screen panel in the program that maybe I can use to make it work

looking for some input thanks Ron

You have to have a wall to put an opening into. However, that wall can be designed to whatever you want. So create a screen panel to your own specifications.

 

Personally I have a wall defined as a screen wall, and I have windows and doors - purpose designed - defined as screens. That way you can change the glazing material to screen.

 

I stretch the windows and doors to whatever size I want, so there's virtually no wall left,

There is also a way to add a screen without a wall ... ish. Think outside the box ... define a screen as a wall.

They actually  have screen doors already created in openings (exterior doors)

For screen doors, do you know that you can put the two openings together ... this effect works quite well.
