Slope rear roof line

[joe0418]

Trying to slope the rear roof of the main structure from the roof peek to the first floor so that the lower edge of the roof sits above the first floor rear windows and door. Can't seem to get

it to work without messing up the roof planes of the adjacent structure. Found a few videos but had no luck.

 

The side walls are defined as full gable. Tried setting the back wall as a knee wall and the second floor wall that's parallel to it as extended slope downward but I still get a full second floor.

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

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.
