Success! I didn't label it as a front porch....once I did that I just checked the right boxes and poof....a roof appeared! And the videos helped so much! Thank all of you again. I'm sure I'll have more questions in the future. I should clarify that I had it labeled as a deck originally once I changed it to porch boom all the options I needed were there.

I didn't use the deck rails tool..... I drew the deck and railing then added walls on top of the deck and adjusted the height of them so that they are only 10 in tall......should I be using a different format? Are there any other videos or tutorials I can watch to better understand this program? I've watched everything I can find.

Yes that didn't work

Dbx?

Sorry guys. My name is Scott and it's premier X8..... it's a standard front porch....elevated off the ground about 4 ft. I tried clicking the wall and then making it a gable and then Auto rebuilding the roof.....that didn't work. The porch is literally like a deck off the front of the house. 8ft out 38 ft long. It's not going to be a screened in porch or anything like that just a front porch that has a roof over it that also adds an architectural appeal to the house.

I'm fairly new to chief architect.....I have a design I'm working on and I can't figure out how to get a gable roof over the front porch.....I've tried everything. Can someone point me in the right direction?
