Jay_on_Cape Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I don't have X7 yet so I can't open it but I can tell you how to manually fix it if you don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 The attached plan seems to be OK - what is the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg_NY61 Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 If you talking about there is no cut out for the dormers inside, you have to select the area and specify as an attic space. to get your dormer wall cutout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainewood Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 I have been out of town and away from my office. Thanks for the replies to my post. The attached plan seems to be OK - what is the problem? Glen, the shed dormer roof plane should be 4 in 12 and leave the main roof plane at 12 in 12. The shed roof plane is forcing it's pitch on the main roof. I followed the steps in the tutorial, listed in ( my orginal post) but end up with these results? Mainewood. See attached pic for fix. Jay, thanks for your reply. I actually discovered "auto dormers" on my toolbar and placed an auto dormer in the rear roof plane and edited to my specifications. It was quick and easy.
