Sorry - it is Home Designer Suite 2017. 

I tried the Help, Tutorials, and even a tech support phone call, but he wasn't able to fix it either, so I submitted an official ticket, which has a 48 hour turnaround.

However, I'd love to get an answer today if possible so he suggested submitting my question to the on-line forum.

Thanks.

 

Go to the 2nd floor. Give all the rooms a type other than Unspecified.

 

Make the bedrooms Bedroom, bathrooms Bathroom etc.

 

Don't know why, but the roof builds after doing this.

You also have a misplaced wall. It's visible after the roof is fixed.

Dear Solver - Wow, I see that you got yours to work, but even after naming all the rooms on the second floor (and the other floors just for good measure), then rebuilding the roofs, mine still draws the porch roof right through invisible 2nd floor walls.  That second floor exterior wall cladding defect is also driving me crazy.  You said it is a misplaced wall but I can't find it.  I'll attach what that spot looks like on my 2nd story floor plan - the cladding gap is shown but I can't find a way to fix it.  This is my first time using this software - some things are wonderful, but there are other little bugs like this that are maddening.  Thanks so much for your help!
