If you drew the walls with the deck rails tool, make sure that you have selected to have a ceiling/roof over the deck.
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.

Have you tried clicking on the wall you want the gable on and then clicking on the little house with the pointy red roof icon located on the edit bar?
Yes that didn't work

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?
Roof over front porch

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.
