simple shed roof

[2build 0]

I am trying to get HD Pro to put a simple shed roof over my rectangle. I created one long wall to be 8'. The other is 12' by setting in the component object although the 3d view without the roof shows all the walls at the same height. The ends are set to shed roof. When I build a single roof plane, It either generates the plane at a ridge height of almost 30 ft, or cuts my wall and makes a flat roof. what am I doing wrong?

I was able to stretch the walls manually, but I still can't get the roof drawn correctly. I have also changed all the interior walls to attic walls, but don't know how to regenerate their height to match the outside walls.

No need to stretch the walls if you set the walls up properly (see the link to a YouTube Tutorial video please)

Thanks. I figured how to make a roof pane to manually get the shed roof. I guess my issue with the cut in the wall is that the roof is following the slope. If I delete the roof, reduce the wall height to standard and let the gable take it to the top of the shed, will all my interior walls get rebuilt as attic?

Why are you manually doing that?   What solver showed you is the easiest for that design.

 

You are not going to get much of a shed with a 1" pitch.

 

Start by turning on auto rebuild roofs, then build a 2nd floor, start with a 8" pitch, gable the side walls and high shed

the front wall, click on the back wall and lower the pitch.
