Vaulted Porch Ceiling

I am trying to create a vaulted porch ceiling hat continues from the living space with the same geometry as the interior vaulted space.

 

I am using scissor trusses with a raised 14" energy heel.  I will carry that same truss outside, though I don 't need it.

 

I have a few questions:

1)  How do I create the wall in that open space above?

2)  I created the ceiling planes to start at the 109 1/8? top plate level, but the heel raises the fascia and it looks odd.  I can't seem to create attic walls near the fascia?

3)  Should I be defining this room as a Porch?

 

Plan attached.. Thanks

1. Draw a wall and set it as invisible below it will use the same wall above.

 

3. Yes see 1 above.

I thought I was doing just that.  Perhaps it is the ceiling plane that is messing it up?
