Help with roof lines? Beginner unable to figure out the software...

[idrivea911]

I'm new to Chief Architect/Home Designer, coming from years of product design in solidworks. I was able to make my 1st floor and 2nd floor plans, but I can't figure out how to get the proper roof lines. The house is a cape at its core. But it has a couple of extensions and dormers that I can't figure out how to contend with. The attached pics are some plans a designer made in Revit from when we were planning an extension (I did a bit of cut/pasting to cover the extension). I'm trying to put together an As-Built in Home Designer so I can play around with other changes I might make to the floor plan. I also attached a screenshot of what the roof looks like in HD with some of the issues I'm trying to fix.

 

I have watched videos about "ignore top floor" where I treat the 2nd floor like an attic, and raise the 1st floor roof ~10". That's what's shown in the screenshot. That looks better than what I had in my 1st run. But I still can't get the roof lines to split. And I can't figure out how to get half the house at 10.5/12 and half at 6/12 pitch. When I make the change in the wall properties, the ridge line shifts towards the front of the house since it still starts both slopes at the 10" above Fl 1 ceiling.
