Rafters - Width Is Not Consistent

OK, so next step would be to check the roof planes themselves. Did you trim back the main roof plane and join it with the shed roof? It appears the fascia and/or sub fascia setting of the main roof plan is cutting the shed roof rafter. Post the plan and I'll have a look, or try cutting that main roof plane back. You can still have the overhangs that stick down, but the main sections need to meet at that intersection.

Let Chief create automatic roof framing.  Open the original roof plane.  This would be the one UNDER the one you have built over the top.  Open the dbx and check "retain roof framing".  Drag the original roof plane up to where the intersecting point is with the new roof.  That will make the new roof regenerate the framing while keeping the old framing in tact.
