Roof design help

The roof planes in the photo obviously have different "Baseline Heights". Measure or estimate the difference in baseline heights, apply them to the two roof planes and then connect their edges using the "Join Roofs" tool. Remove any unnecessary line breaks in the roof plane edges so they connect to each other properly.

Chief calls this a Half-Hip Roof.

This pic is auto roofs with a full gable wall and Upper Pitch checked.

Then a couple of quick edits to the gutter polylines to get them as per your pic.

Normally though, we would build these without the sloping gutters.

It is easy to do either way.

For the sloping gutters, select the roof by that edge and turn on Gutter On Selected Edge.

For the flat gutter on the eave return, unlock the Roof, Gutters layer and in plan view drag another section of the gutter molding polyline along the eave return.
