I am trying to create a front porch that ties into the main house but under the main house roof like the attached picture. When I create my porch it creates the roof from the outside edge of the porch to the rear of the house. I know I can change the pitch of the porch roof to be less than the main house roof pitch but I am looking to get the porch roof to tie into the house siding below the house roof. I would also like to keep auto roofs on if possible. I have tried dropping the floor of the porch 8" and using a 8' tall porch vs a 9' tall house wall but I can't figure it out. Thanks for the help.

anyone have a solution?

awesome, thank you

Attached are two plans. One with the temporary dimensions settings how I want them and one where they are not right. I would like it so when I click on an exterior wall it shows me the outside of wood stud to outside of wood stud dimension and when I click on interior walls it shows me the gypsum to gypsum dimension. I when to default settings and played around with those but I either get the exterior dimensions to be like I want but not the interior or vice versa. I don't want to revert back to the correct temporary dimension plan because I have updated the one where the temporary dimensions are not correct to be the template I want to use.

Attached is my plan. On some of my plans when I create a deck and then either delete it or modify it the framing/planks disappear and when I try and create a new deck the framing/planks won't show up. Is there something I need to do it I delete a deck to fix this problem? Thanks for the help. house.zip

Attached is my plan. Why are my porch walls creating a break in the house walls? Some corners are not broken but some are. Thanks for the help. plan.zip

Most of the house constructed in my area are built with trusses for the house and rafters for the porch. A 12" energy heel is used on the trusses. When I create my plans it gives a 12" heel for the porches also which make my elevations not quite right. Is there a way to keep auto roof on and use trusses for the house and rafters for the porches?

Attached is my plan. I am having some issue with siding/drywall/etc on some walls so I am thinking I may not have set this house up the right way. 11' tall walls on 1st floor. 8' tall walls on 2nd floor for the middle section on two sides using space under rafters so 0' wall height at exterior wall and increasing in height as you moved toward the center Thanks for the help. house.zip

Attached is my plan. I am using the lower wall type if split by butting roof but my wall either shows all siding or all drywall. How do I get the exposed upper part to be siding and the lower part of the wall to be drywall? Thanks for the help. house.zip

Is it possible to use roof trusses for a house and rafters for the porch and keep auto roofs on? Or do I have to manually edit the porch roofs and turn auto roof off?

thank you so much

I manually edited the roofs. If you rebuild the roof you should see the issue.

here is the plan. Thanks for the help. house.zip

That worked but now it is creating a small roof where there shouldn't be one. Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

Is there a way to get a porch slab to overhang the frost wall by a couple inches?
