Uncheck auto rebuild roof.
Use the paint can to apply material of your choice to each roof.
You CAN NOT rebuild the roof, or the material will default to the original.
ALSO, if you open the roof dialog, and click on 'ok', or hit 'the keyboard 'enter', the roof WILL auto rebuild.

The Fredo649 profile joined the forum 5 years ago, and has 147 posts. The questions you have asked, don't really make sense for someone with Fredo649's experience with the software.

I suppose that YOU understand what you are trying to describe, but I doubt that anyone else does.

Strange set-up.
I'm guessing that you need to keep the railing to keep the 'loft' room, but you want to remove the roof protrusions?
Add a wall break near each end of the rail wall. Open each outer portion and make them invisible.
The white portion sticking out of the roof, is the diagonal railing. Why are those other railing walls there?If you want to see a 3d view of the loft, with the 3d view selected, open tools > display---and uncheck ceiling surfaces, and roof planes.

Open the front wall of the porch, and lower the roof pitch to about 2", and see if that makes a difference.
You really need to look at some of the video tutorials, or some of the roof articles in the Knowledge Base.

Your explanation is not really clear about what the front roof lines of the house should look like.
But I think Suite can do it.
You need to read up about roofs and wall settings, in your reference manual, and the knowledge base articles.

The solution is in the upper/lower pitch settings on the long outer wall of the deck.
Look at the options and start experimenting.

The roof is very easy to let the roof auto-build.

The only difference in this article, is that your sun room (porch) will be built on floor 1.
Scroll down and pay special attention to the upper-lower directions for the roof.

I followed the directions for the egress window, as I suggested that you try.
Of course it became more of an egress 'room', because of it's size.

In the Knowledge Base search window, type 'egress'.
This might get you started on the right track.

If you don't want to see the roof, while in the 3d view, go to 'display options' and uncheck 'roof planes'.

To prevent (sloped) soffits from interfering with the dollhouse view, place them on the 'attic' level, and then reposition them to where they need to be (height?).

Turn OFF 'auto rebuild roof', then use the paint can to apply different materials to portions of the roof.
If you accidentally rebuild the roof, the materials will default back to the original.

It sounds like you are trying to use the 'attic' space as your 2nd floor, and the software does not allow that.
Search the Knowledge Base for 'Cape Cod ', and then view the directions for "Automatically Building a One and a Half Story Roof".

How do I create a bookshelf to look like this?

I think that you need to re-read the advice that was posted.
The soffit was only added as a way to add a molding to the cabinet, just below the ceiling.
