katalyst777 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 This looks like a Saltbox style roof.https://www.homedesignersoftware.com/support/article/KB-00735/creating-a-saltbox-roof.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hummin Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 Thank you but I can't seem to get the porch roof to not connect to the main roof. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidJPotter Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 How to build the basic roof types is to be found in the "Build Roof Dialog - Roof Styles Tab", the settings are simple but precise. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kbird1 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 In my Signature below click on the link to a post about what I call the 12" roof Bug , which explains what is going on I think. if you lower the Porch room ceiling height to 48" and it works like it should you are running into the issue above.... posting the plan and a full size pic to the thread ( not as your avatar) will help too M.

solver Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 How is the porch supposed to connect to the main roof? Are you modeling this house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo_Ann Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 In the tiny profile thumbnail, the area Eric circled shows the left wall is raised. In your program pic, the left wall roof is extended all the way down to the top of floor one. Which photo is correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
