Mark3D Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 With the small gable pull your roof plans paste the wall cladding buy the thickness of your Fascia and with the big gable hole turn on reference layers extend the gable wall to the point where it will hit the 2 roof plans https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29819538/Untitled%201.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josbrp Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 Hello! I need more roof help please. Attached is the chief plan with a little room that I would like to add in the future (walls in green) I also attached two pictures of the problem I'm having when joining roof planes. Thank you so much in advanced. Untitled 2.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 If the problem is the hole where the gable comes down and meets the shed, go into plan view and place a break near that point, then select the (corner) of the lower portion of the shed and drag it over until it perpendicular with the out side wall and that should fix it (I think). I am a long ways from being the expert, but in similar circumstances it worked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
