Some may not think it's that complicated of a roof design but I'm working on a massive house.  Can envision what it will look like but need some help on getting the roof designed and correct.  Willing to pay for the help.  e-mail @ completedesignsvcs@yahoo.com if interested.  Thank you!!

I've read everything about story and half, just doesn't seem to be working out.  Can someone please help me out?

Thanks

Hi, did an auto dormer for bonus room above garage. It's putting the window at 7' off the floor.  What am I doing wrong?  Plan attached.

Thank you

Hinrichs.plan

ok, yeah i will upgrade soon!  Did you find any issues in the room heights?  Thank you for your help!

what the heck, that middle floor joist needs to go up.  Would you mind posting it?  Ridge still doesnt look centered. 

Thanks

Eric, did that, still wants to put one 8" higher than the other.. See plan. and it want's to 45 the floor joists

Hello all, doing a bonus room above garage, doing a manual gable roof and my peak isn't coming out correct.  Checked my heights on the sidewalls and all jives, must be missing something.  Any help would be appreciated.  Plan attached.

Thanks

right I know that, tried the half wall option and gave it the specified height to match, same result.  The 1 wall showing the problem is identical on the other side as well.  Thought doing the half wall and specifying a height would fix it.  

In HD pro can you specify a wall height for a single wall or does it all have to be done through room spec? I've got a living area with 12' ceilings, deck out back which would be @ 12' as well.  The deck roof should be higher than the lower roof.  The dining wall and tile shower wall should be 12'.  It's looking like this

LawB10, thank you!

Is there a way to make the underside of gables look better than this?  Thank you

David, thank you, will look at the video when I have a chance!! Appreciate the help very much!

Hey everyone, I've spent some time trying to learn the manual roofs, I'm trying to get my roof to look like the picture I've attached.  I've attached the floor plan and picture. I would appreciate any help!

Thanks!

Ok thanks. Yeah technically it's not a real cantilever since floor joists don't span out. I'll try that

Easiest way to create this? Just want window boxed out, not full cantilever out.

Hello, I could always switch my paper size to 11x17 and do it to scale, now the program thinks the print source needs to still be 18x24 and it has 4 sheets now in the plot.  WTF!   Anyone ran into this before?  I just did 8 11x17s the other day without this issue.  Never had to mess with the print source before.

See attachment.

Thanks

So I can get the concrete cutout on garage doors but not any service doors I add. thoughts?

Thanks

guys, know how to use the help for cripes sake.  The break wall will only do the center of the wall or within 3 ft. of a corner thus not allowing the footing to extend like it should.  

The footage should be closer if this is true.
