Overlaying furniture on rugs
I'm just learning this software so forgive me if this is a rookie questions: When I add an area rug to my floorplan and then a desk (for example) on top of it (using the CTRL key to move the desk), the floorplan interprets the desk as being under the rug and will not show it or print it. The desk will show, however, in the 3d view. How can I move the rug so that it will be begind the rug?
Area Rugs and Window Coverings
Your suggestion for bordered area rugs worked *perfectly* and I'm very pleased with how they came out.
I think I've also figured out what I've read in other posts about using soffits for window coverings. I got some nice 'straight on' shots of roman shades and woven wooden shades from the internet and cropped them tight; placed a soffit the right height and width but only 1" deep onto the window; then placed the window covering as a texture onto the soffit. Voila! I have exactly the shades I was looking for.
I'm pretty impressed with the functionality of this software for only $99.
Thanks a million for the ideas and suggestions!

Placing an area rug under furniture
I would like to place an area rug under a table, but the best I can do is put it beside the table. How do I get underneath?
Area Rubs on Top of other flooring materials
New user with only the Interior Designer package. In the materials list there are choices for area rugs, but when I select to place on top of a base flooring material nothing happens. I assume there needs to be some sort of layering or paint on type approach used here. I searched the help screen without finding what I need. Thanks for help -- by the way rugs, not rubs.
