I'm very new to this, so I apologize for the noob question, but I cannot find the answer online.  I am making a lean-to type building and need to make one side shorter.  I can easily change the thickness and length, but can't see the wall height.  How can I do this?

 

Also, any ideas why it wants to put the roof in the middle of the walls?Lincolnton2.plan

Hi Locke_x,

 

You can change the height of a single wall by switching the wall out for a Straight Half-Wall. (More info can be found here https://www.homedesignersoftware.com/support/article/KB-02969/changing-wall-heights.html)

 

It sounds like you're trying to make a Shed Roof design which is much easier to achieve with our Automatic Roof tools. Here's a video to give more information on that if that's what you're looking for! (https://www.chiefarchitect.com/videos/watch/6125/shed-roof.html)

 

Best,
Connor

Thank you so much!! That helped immensely!  That one and the following one (in case anyone else has the same problem) helped get my problem fixed
