Roof Ridge Line

I recently used the Reverse Plan feature in Chief and got a strange anomaly with the roof.  On one of the ridges (that runs front to back of the house, the roof lines appear to extend past the ridge. I almost appear as though the ridge cap is upside down.  I can't seem to find a way to fix this.  Hoping someone can take a look.  I need to create renderings for an MLS listing.

 

Thanks!

I opened the plan and I don't see any problem with the roof planes.  I tried it using Reverse Plan...

And I tried using Edit Area...

What am I missing?

 

Nice looking work by the way.

 

EDIT:  Now I see what you were talking about.  I missed the upside ridge cap in the original plan orientation as you posted it.  Not too difficult to fix as some of the other guys have mentioned (both above and in posts below) but please report this to tech support as a bug so that it gets fixed.

I had a quick play with this. Very strange. I can confirm that

it is in fact an inverted ridge cap, but I can't determine what

is generating it. I deleted all the roof planes and everything

on the Attic level and the inverted ridge cap remained. If you

only need to render the view you can do as Griffin suggests

and turn off the layer. You will lose all the ridge caps in the

view but with the dark color you are using for the roof the

lack of ridge caps is not readily apparent. However I found

that restoring the ridge caps resulted in the inverted and

unwanted cap returning.
