Just another newbie with roof layout issues. See photos. I've read numerous help topics, videos, forum threads and I just can not get it right. 

 

Existing Roof. I'm assuming that little drop down over the garage is the culprit. Because when I sampled a L-shaped plan with out the drop down roof, i was easily able to create the gable ends and have the ridge-lines all meet.

You want to clean up the area I've circled?

 

Try breaking the wall at the red line. Set the back part to Hip. You should get a roof that follows the blue line.

 

I'd place the break where the new wall joins the old.

Yes sir, that's the area. I did as you said and I'm on the right track. It appears I now need to look into something else. I might have inadvertently inputted the wrong info into roof pitch somewhere.
