Ok just got 2015 HD Suite works good it easy, till I Got to the roof. I need to have a Hip roof 5/12 pitch on the lower single story portions  of the house and a Gabled 6/12 pitch on the second floor any ideas on how to do this?

Yes ...... :)

did you look at the tutorials on roofs ?

http://www.homedesignersoftware.com/support/article/KB-00359/52/Home-Designer/Roofs/How-to-Automatically-Build-the-Basic-Roof-Styles.html

or the videos ?
http://video.homedesigner.chiefarchitect.com/?search=roof


but basically you need to change the appropriate walls to Gables and set the correct pitch on each wall DBX if that is possible in Suite ?

M.

edit forgot to mention the youtube channel , the 1st 7mins of this video covers roof basics but some features you wont have since you only have Suite.

 

 

there is actually free roof training this month too :
