rmarcant Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I'm trying with no luck to create a patio cover with 2 flat angled roofs on the ends of this 50 ft. wide house and the center area a gable roof. Every time I set the gable section of the wall and build the roof, it moves the house roof out to the end of the patio cover. I've separated the side flat roof areas I want as separate rooms and tried everything I know to set the wall roofs on all 4 corners but nothing works. I've tried to manual build a roof but that just builds the flat roof into the roof that moved out from the house edge to the patio cover edge. Any ideas? I've added an example of what I want.

Jo_Ann Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I'm kind of wondering what a flat-angled roof IS? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 From what I can tell Jo-Ann, it's the lower pitched roofs on either side of the gable he has over the entryway? This will be best done with manual roofs. Delete the "roof over room" for the front porch, then auto rebuild the roof so it just covers the house. Then build the rest of the roof manually and DON'T turn "auto rebuild roofs" back on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo_Ann Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I think you missed the point, Rookie65. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I think I get it. Correct terminology is important so people can follow along. And flat-angled is an oxymoron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home Designer Pro 2023 Build 24.3.0.84 The Gable Porch entrance extends further forward than the other other exterior walls. "Flat angled roof" is a pefectly acceptable description, and any experienced architect would know exactly what you mean and how to incorporate it. Unfortunately, the easiest is to manually build those roofs, because its probably beyond HD Pro's capabability to autobuild, but even if you purchased premier, you'd still have to manually build it.
