Roof trusses not following ceiling planes

Hi,

I'm having a problem trying to get my trusses to follow the ceiling planes in the central portion of my house. See screen shots. There should be vaulted ceilings either side of the central area but the trusses follow the plane of the flat ceiling and even drop at the right side instead of raising. Any suggestions? I'm a newbie so let me know if I need to provide further info.

Thanks

I assume you have Home Designer Pro. From your posted images it appears that you have not turned off the flat ceilings on the second floor of the intended vaulted area. The trusses are programmed to follow as a matter of priority flat ceilings first and ceiling planes secondarily. It appears this is the case based upon the two offered images, which leaves LOTS of room for error just on that scanty evidence. If you were to post a copy of your plan as a .zip archive file then others could give your plan a comprehensive look to determine the cause instead of mere guesses.
