Hello
I am trying to learn ChIef Architect but I am having one heck of a time with the roof. I am trying to modeling my house. The house itself is pretty simple. It is a two story colonial with each of the ends having a full gabled end.
The garage is where I am having trouble. Garage is 24x24. The Garage is attached to one of the gabled ends. It has a gable on the same side as the house gable and a gable on the front of the garage. So far the gabled ends have been pretty easy. I have just selected those wall as being gabeled and autobuild the roof. The back of the garage though has been a lot more troublesome. There is a room over the garage and the back of that room has a full ceiling. The roof on the back of the garage is a fully dormered roof. Meaning the roof off the back has less of a pitch than the two gableded ends. I think the two gabeled end are something like a 12/12 pitch. Not sure exactly on the pitch of the back of the roof. I have tried to use the auto dormer tool but I cannot widen it out to the full length of the back of the garage. Attached are my files and some picture of my house.
I have watched a bunch of you tube videos but could not find one to get this task complete. If anyone knows of any video send me a link and I will check them out. PLEASE help I am going to pull my hair out.
Thanks so much
TJ
