  1. Thank you, I think it is coming along, but just so that I understand, you do think that this can be done with just practice and Auto Roofs? I certainly can manually tweak it, but can it be done without manual modification as my boss asked?
  2. This is an improvement: I have some problems with that roof plane, but at least it is working. Thanks. Any idea how to fix it?
  3. First of all, Thank you so much for getting back to me. I am really stressed about getting this done in time. My boss has instructed me not to manually tweak the roof panes. I did that on my prior one, and while I got the roof to match, some of the dimensions my boss gave me were off. This time he said I need to redo it, without manually changing the roof, in case the dimensions need to be updated again. If that happens, we will be able to automatically change it, without having to change the manual roofs. I tried this with my previous model, and it worked, but it involved turning off Auto Roofs and then creating the second floor. After doing that, I tried turning Auto Roofs back on, and it created gaps in the roof, and changed the roof planes. Is there a check box or something to get rid of the roof on the second floor when creating it? With what I am doing, I do not have a complete wall to align it with. Do I have to create it, and then make it invisible so that I can use it with the gable line tool? Also, do I use the gable line tool before turning on roofs, meaning; I should delete all roof planes, add the gable line, and then rebuild it with auto roofs?This shows the weird offset roof better. Somehow I have to do this with Auto Roofs only.
  4. My boss says I need to create this house with its double gable roof in Chief Architect. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/110-Fox-Chase-Hendersonville-NC-28739/441854964_zpid/? While I have done it already, he now wants me to do it with only auto roofs. I have enclosed the double gable roof, my manual roof version, and my attempt at auto roofs. I have tried researching it, but I haven't came up with anything. Could you all show me how to do this?
