Vaulted Ceiling in Living Room attached to kitchen

[ChiefUserLukie 0]

Trying to make the living room a vaulted ceiling with the full gable roof, but it does not seem to take.  The training videos show different options on the roof tool than I have in the newest version.  It shows the gable type I want on the front bedroom, but I can't get the vaulted ceiling to work and it just runs the roof line all the way to master bedroom?  Any help would be appreciated.  The exterior pictures look odd because I'm still learning the program and am trying to figure out how to adjust my terrain to account for a walk out basement lol

Answers often depend on which title (Suite, Pro etc) and version (2018, 2019 etc) you are using.

 

You can help everyone by adding that info to your signature (see below for how to turn them on) by clicking on your user name at the top right of the page, click Account Settings, then Signature on the left.

 

Doing so makes it always available, and keeps others from having to hunt for it.

 

And, turn on signature display too.

It sounds like you have 2 related problems, one with the ceiling and one with the roof.

 

Attaching the plan file (close the software first) will help others help you.

 

I would focus first on the roof, so someone will need to know what it is supposed to look like.

 

Is this a new design or an existing house?

New design, but basing it off a picture online.  Home Designer Architectural 2019.

I attached the plan file as well.

First, Delete the first floor so that 2nd floor becomes the 1st floor and the third floor becomes the second floor.

 

For the Living room gable, use the break wall tool, make a 12" or so break and ungable that little piece and lower the pitch.
