  1. Your nested gabble looks right but the upper section just needs to close the gap. You can do that by clicking on a roof edge, punch the #2 key and then the edge of the other roof plane. They software will close the gap for you.
  2. Do yourself a favor. Hire someone that knows what they are doing. What you don't know CAN hurt you.
  3. I use text. Could be my imagination but, a plan that is all rich text is slower to view, edit, save, and may make a bigger file size when converted to pdf.
  4. Roof planes can generate from where the walls are located. You can also place one over an open area with no walls at all.
  5. You can select a roof plane and change its overhang to anything you want. A normal hip roof would have equal roof eaves all the way around.
  6. A tightly sealed modern house with a window in a shower area. This could cause some future repair of window and even the framing. On the other hand, people don't place future long term maintenance very high on their list of must haves. Therefore, on a spec house, I would put the window in as shown.
