Thank you Glen! The baseline location is exactly the variable I was missing. Matt

Ya, in searching I found one way to show exposed truss beams is to have a ceiling on the room, build roof framing, then remove the ceiling. On my first image I took a screenshot after rebuilding the framing when ceiling for the room was still turned off so it cleared the truss. The trusses should be in the SM Cottage2 file. Either way it still show the issue with different heel heights. Here is an image showing the correct truss framing and the differing birdsmouth/heel height. Did the plan file work from the last post?

really showing my first timer status. Trying again, thanks for the patience. Matt SM Cottage2.zip

Sorry, that would make things much more clear. I am using Chief Architect Premier X15., Build 25.3.0.77 Win 64bit Hopefully these help. SM Cottage.zip

I apologize if this is a obvious answer, but I have been searching through the forum and videos for a couple hours and am still totally stuck. I am doing an as built of a small cabin and have exposed trusses. If I look at my left and right walls, they look to match and if I look at my left and right roof planes they also seem to match on everything I can change, but the top plate and heel height are different. However, those are linked to all the other heights so I can't change them. In the attached pic you can see that one side has a birdsmouth and the other has a tiny birdsmouth. What I am actually trying to do is eliminate the birdsmouth on both. Any suggestions?
