  1. Auto build and then editing manually got me there (mostly). I had to tweak the floor plan a little to get it to look the way I wanted, but it was much faster that way and all in all I am content. Thanks again for the help.
  2. Thanks for the all the tips. I watched several videos, started feeling confident, and decided to try building the roof manually. My progress is attached - I think I need more practice. Oh well, maybe I will do better in the morning with a fresh mind. Thanks again for the help.
  3. I am a relatively new user of Chief Architect and, as a whole, it has been easy to use and has met my needs. However, I am having a difficult time understanding how to get a roof to build correctly. The bulk of the roof is a 10/12 pitch, with the gable walls having a 12/12 pitch. I have attached the plan as well as a screenshot showing the areas that I am having difficulties with. I am having four major issues. 1. There is an area on the back of the house where a roof plane abruptly changes pitch - creating a gap in the roof (blue arrow) 2. There is roof framing over the top of the deck (red arrow). 3. There are two areas on the front of the house that I would like to have not exist (ie, I want them to be part of the roof just behind/adjacent to them) - these areas also appear to have a different pitch (12/12?) than the main roof (10/12). (These areas are circled in red). 4. The roof on the portion of the garage that protrudes from the rest of the garage generates lower than the main roof (green rectangle). Any and all help and advice is greatly appreciated - I just can't seem to figure the roof tools out. I am using Chief Architect Premier X6 Build 16.0.3.41x64 030317.plan
