TommyB Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 We are doing remodeling and it includes one portion of the house that has a gable roof extension covering a porch, which the floor continues onto an uncovered deck. I can use a gable extension, in Home Designer Architectural, but then ALL gable roofs are extended. Any thoughts on how I might accomplish this on just this one portion of the roof?

DavidJPotter Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 You draw the porch area using railing walls set to invisible. Once you have a room specification dialog box for that area you uncheck "Flat Ceiling over this room" on the structure tab (that removes the default flat ceiling over the space. Then mark the outer wall to have a "Gable Roof" over the space in the Roof tab of the Wall specification dialog box. Then build roofs and your existing gable will be extended over the Covered Porch room. The beams and posts you will have to add manually.
