Hi! I'm drawing a house that's basically a rectangle with a few adjustments to perimeter. (rectangle with carport/storage jutting out the rear of house) so basically and L shaped perimeter. When I auto build roof for gable it gets very crazy. I prefer adjusting with auto build roofs but it's never getting it correct. Is there something I'm not doing? Is there something in the preferences that I'm supposed to change? The rooms have different ceiling heights, but shouldn't the roof just go higher to cover that? Building roofs always get me frustrated! Thanks in advance.

I think I'm getting somewhere by using the walls to edit the roof. Thank you both so much!

Ok, I will try that as well. I am making a pure mess of this roof. Thank you!!!!

No I'm not...I didn't see that they were disjointed until I looked at the 3D, but I will try it. Thanks so much!!

Hi! Very new to CA and I am finishing up my 2nd plan. I had Chief draw the roofline of a complicated layout and I was able to make most of my changes successfully; however, I don't want every section of this roof to be 9/12. When I try to manually change the sections that I want to be 12/12, for example, the roof becomes de-segmented. There must be a way to do this as roof lines are not always one pitch. Any help is appreciated!!
