Post and Beam Structure - ROOF TRUSS QUESTION

Hello all. First time posting anything in the Forum. Scoured all of the help resources, but can't find the answer.

 

PROBLEM: I'm designing a post and beam "salt box" structure (cabin). I've attached an image ("Post and Beam Structure") of what I've created so far. As you can see, the verticals and horizontals are not a problem. However, I would like to manually frame the roof for a "salt box" configuration - which requires a compound angle of two roof elements (see attached "Salt Box Cabin Example"), using 8 x 8 beams at 3.5 ft spacing.

 

I'm using Home Designer Pro 2021, in a Windows 10 environment.

 

Any help with this much appreciated.
