Roof truss framing

Hey All-

 

Got a question on roof trusses. In this plan I am trying to truss the roof above the main house. I have set one truss and taken a back clip section of it. It is not laying out how I want it to and I just don't know how to manipulate it to do what I want. It shows the bottom chord continuing on to meet the top chord at the fascia board. What I want is the bottom chord to stop at the bearing wall and the top chord to continue to the fascia board. This is what the "as-built" trusses look like for this project and it will make a difference for the addition's ridge height etc.

 

I have included the plan as well as a picture of the trusses the way I want them to look.

 

Thanks in advance!!!!
