DavidJPotter Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 The raised roof section needs to be defined with walls, invisible or not so you can set that area's ceiling height higher than the left and right sections at a lower ceiling height. the little prow roof on the higher roof sections you cannot do in Architectural for that would require Home Designer Pro or above. You may have to get the exact ceiling height for the higher area by trial and error until you get just the right amount of separation.

barnyboy1978 Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 This is as far as I have gotten so far following other suggestions from the Roof Tip to just get the roof right with temporary walls that can be deleted after the auto is turned off later. Actually you are wrong I don't need pro. I followed the info in this earlier thread for the hay hood. https://hometalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/2473-create-this-barn-roof-with-widow-peak/#comment-13806 I think it works okay in architectural if I can just figure out how to stop the floor.

You might need to remove the floor, or set it to a material like Opening/No Material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawB10 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Try it by building a 2nd floor and then lower the ceiling height to 36" or 48". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnyboy1978 Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share Posted February 14, 2017 Thanks LawB10. Creating a second floor worked out so much better than trying to do everything on the first. Still have a problem with my slab hovering above the ground but its coming along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawB10 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 For the slab, use a box shape and set elevation reference to "From Terrain" and the floor to bottom to 0" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
