    roof

    Hi I am trying to build (CA premier 10) a gable roof over garage similar to gable over bedroom .. the garage is 7' high 24 ft wide main house is 8' high. I have tired auto build as well as manual build roof planes but noting seems to work. I have edited roof directives.. would the garage be too wide for a gable roof with 3 / 12 pitch any suggestions? thanks CA Premier 10
