That looks kind of weird. I was hoping to achieve something like this photo. RanchHouseRoof

How do I make HD create a 2nd roof instead of just extending the existing roof?

That is exactly what I am trying to do.

Forgot to mention I am using Home Designer Suite 2019.

I have a plan for a square building with a simple gable roof that comes to a peak over the front entrance. A deck wraps around 2 sides of the building and I want to put a shed roof over the deck on the front of the building. (Actually, I would like it to wrap around and cover the whole L-shaped deck but that seemed more complicated.) I have been able to define the deck as a room and checked the option to put a roof over it. The software just extends the main roof over the decks. I tried following the example in the knowledge base, surrounding my deck with invisible walls and defining the roof characteristic for each wall but nothing I've done has created a separate roof. Can anyone help? I've attached the plan. CoffeeShopPlan.plan
