Muttley000 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 I am having an issue with a roof line. When I got the ceiling heights as I wanted them I lost the roofline I had. The red line signifies the original gable on the house. The overhang above the second story windows should be the eave of the second story roof. Can someone guide me as to how to get the apparent 3rd story to disappear? Proposed_House_Plan_E.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidJPotter Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 The key is to turn OFF "Auto Build Roof" command in the "Build Roof" Dialog when you have achieved the roof design you wish. That done, changing the ceiling heights in individual rooms will then have no effect or change your existing roof system. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJP Thant makes sense to me but I will need to get the roof back before I can do that, or should I go back and lower all the ceilings first then undo auto rebuild roofs?

solver Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 No sound, but watch at the end where I change a roof setting. Watch on YouTube: http://youtu.be/X0RrINl1uIY?hd=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttley000 Posted November 9, 2019 Author Share Posted November 9, 2019 Thank you for the helpful video, I have it now. Not only was I missing a step but I also did not set up the ceiling height correctly per your previous instructions because I missed a closet. I have things looking as imagined now.
