Thanks Eric, that was helpful. Your end result of the roofline is what I am trying to get to.
I have lived in this house, but do not currently (to take specific measurements of the roof or examine the framing). I have quite a few pictures of the actual house though and not just the ink drawings. I have the original floorplan, but not the full blueprints. The wall you were moving is correct as drawn; it runs straight from the front to the back of the house. Perhaps there is another technique ... a knee wall maybe it's called or something like that ... in the attic or a zero height second floor over the garage that can be moved in without moving the whole exterior wall in and would give the same result?
Thanks for the sunlight tip, I was wondering how to change the lighting.
Cheers,
David
