Hi, 

I'm trying to build a 2 pitch (combination) roof (see attached photo.)  Thought I had it as I got there with one error.  When I tried to correct it the gable portion of the roof disappeared.   Now my house is roofless.  My head is flat from banging it against the wall.  Probably my own worst enemy to fix this.

 

Attached files of the plan and camera views of the problem.  And a roof example photo.

 

Please help.  I'm weeks behind schedule and the pressure may be what flattened the gable roof.  Thank you for your help.

Easy to do using Home Designer Pro. Hard to do using Suite. Some Non-Pro users may chime in with a solution or workaround to arrive there. I specialize in using Home Designer Pro and Chief Premier.

Turn auto build roof back on.  On floor 2, you have the gable walls set as 'high shed gable'.  They should be set as 'gable'.

You didn't say what the 2nd roof pitch needed to be, but on floor 1... all 4 outer porch walls need to have the pitch changed to 4", and then the roof should build.

Thank you so much.  Took a couple tries then presto!   Big help. 

 

We might get to live in this thing next year after all because of you.
