There are a lot of videos on Chiefs site that cover roofs and with some training you can get the results you want. This was all auto build roofs using the Dutch Gable and upper pitch tools.

It was strange how it built the truss there!!!! I just stumbled into the little room, I was about to give up when I deleted the inside wall in the stairwell and the render changed to a rim joist instead of the floor truss.
-
Try marking the little room that was formed between the two walls as unfinished instead of open below. Then rebuild the floor framing, it also draws in the rim joist that was missing.
-
There may be a better way but here is what I came up with. Make a copy of the plan and delete everything on the first floor that is under the second floor. with the second floor open on the original plan set your reference display to the first floor of the copied plan.

X12 Story Pole Dimensions Shows Grade Level Incorrectly
Garybills replied to DefinedDesign's topic in General Q & A
Like David said, set the Grade marker level in the Auto Story Pole default. -
I've had this before, if that area of the 2nd floor is open below the floor structure shows the osb in camera view on the roof but not inside. remove the osb from the open below floor structure and it goes away.

Hey Elliot, I just noticed your signature and it says your using a GeForce 1060 video Card. Could that be part of the problem? My old laptop has the same card, and it does weird things with X15. Just guessing.

From looking at your plan, it looks like you just need to raise your carriers & post manually since it looks like you drew them manually. you defined the porch with invisible walls..

Sorry, I thought they wanted a casement that looked like the picture they posted.

I think this would be a custom Muntin. Search help for Muntin and it explains how to make them.

Good morning Guy, I sent you an email. -
The invisible walls around the Dining Room are causing the ceilings to drop when the Dining Room tray is built. I used a solid and a solid hole to make the tray in the Dining Room. I'm not sure if there is another or better way to do it .

I'm not sure about your components, but here is how I saved it to the library. Place a Wall Niche in plan, select convert to symbol, symbol name Wall Niche, symbol category Fixture Interior, check add to library and show advanced options. Open symbol specifications, in the 3D tab check include size: width & height, in Rotation Z-, in the Options tab, select Insert in Wall 3". Open the wall Niche in the Library Browser, in the Layers Tab select Wall Niches, in the Schedule Tab select include in schedule as, uncheck fixtures and check wall niche in the windows tab.

Missing stucco & foundation extends to roof
Garybills replied to capitaldesigns's topic in General Q & A
Edit wall layer intersections will fix the stucco. -
Are you marking it as a deck?
-
Explode Bay Window and copy the small window and reflect about the center of the Bay, you deck railing is causing the small window to disappear. The Bay Window is also cutting your deck plank boards, you will need to make sure you mark the decking planks to framing in the deck structure tab as well, as was mentioned in the comment above to get them to show in plan view. Once they are showing you can select them and extend them to the end, see plan note about the planks. You will need to have all framing on the deck finished before you extend the planks because that will turn off the auto rebuild deck framing. I hope this makes since.

Hey Jason, I marked your porch as no Ceiling, and it fixed your problem. Then you will have to draw in a ceiling plane for the porch. I'm not sure why it's doing that!!!!!!

This was X14 This is x15 with set to 0, it's lowering the raise off plate X15 if you raise the Heel Height to 4 3/16"
