gable roof over patio-won't go

[AlanS7]

I can't get my plan to build a roof over the patio area. I can start a new plan and it will work. It just doesn't do anything.

Why can't my developed plan accept a vaulted gable roof where I want it.

I first split the wall where the sliding door is and then selected it. open it and choose gable roof.

I have attached my plan.

I did insert a wall break I just didn't save it in the plan. A patio is not required to make a gable roof on the roof plan.

I would work apparently because auto roof return was not checked, as you pointed out. It took me a while to find it.

so now I have it close to what I want.

the only way I can get the 3 posts under the vaulted roof (patio door) is to use the post to beam. this then puts a wall over the beam.

I would rather have center post and cross beams. In the front with the kitchen door I want a shed roof. for some reason it doesn't fill in a flat ceiling and add the end wall above. here also if I change the railing style to post to ceiling it removes the end post on one end. I don't want a post at the wall.
