Hey all, 

 

I'm working on recreating my house that we're currently building through a builder.  I am having the hardest time getting my roof line right.

 

Here is how my roof is SUPPOSED to look.

Here's where I've gotten so far:

What I can't figure out how to do is that peak. Every time I mess with the rooflines it messes up the entire house.

 

Anyone have any tips or tricks?  I've also attached my plan for those who are *far* better than I am at this.

You have changed the roof defaults incorrectly.

 

Consider using typical pitch in inches instead of degrees.

 

Go to Edit>Reset To Defaults and select Roof Directives in Walls (on All Floors).

 

Fix your overhangs -- they are not 4", and then set walls to Full Gable where needed.

 

You will need to post better images of the roof for more help. Maybe a google image showing it from above.
