I've manually manipulated roof panels to create a gable roof over a dormer. My problem is that I either am missing facia board where they meet at the top or I'm simply missing color. I've had this problem before, but can't remember how to solve it.

Problem solved--though I do think that writing these posts helped me work through it. Had no idea a wall could be inside-out, and had no idea it could simply be spun with a handle.

Okay, an update. I think I have discovered that my wall is backwards--I suppose. I'm seeing the inside color of the window, not the outside. I had put shingles in the gable, but discovered that there is siding on the inside of the wall in the attic. Is there a way to turn it around? I deleted it and placed a new wall, but it is the same.

The window is in a wall in the attic, so it has no room definition. It's what I call a gable dormer, so its one flat gable wall. I have another one around the corner and it accepts a copied window and shows it in white. I have checked all specs on both walls and they match. I'm getting more puzzled as I go. I assume it'll be a simple fix when I finally discover it.

I'm adding some detail to my plan and have come to an odd thing happening. I added a window to a dormer and it comes in as a stained wood window with stained wood trim. All other windows have been white. I cannot change it in the wall properties or the window properties. I can change the color in window properties, but it doesn't change when I click done. Something's obviously blocking me, but I can't figure out what it is. I'm using Home Designer Pro 2015.
