    How to add an eyebrow?

    I have home designer suite 9.0. I am adding a second floor directly on top of my existing first floor. On one side of the house it is a straight wall from the ground to the second story roof. I would like to break it up with an overhang like a fake roof between the first a second floor. Anybody know how to do this? Is it called an eyebrow?

    thanks

    A Google image search for eyebrow roof mostly seems to show curved roof planes, which are only available in the Chief Architect X2 program.

    But from your description, is what you want more like this?

    Thanks everyone for the comments. I am looking for something like Kat shows. My second story addition is basically a rectangle shaped box I am putting on after removeing my first floor roof. I will have a 3-12 pitch on the second story roof and want to have an overhang like Kat shows but all the way around the house. I suppose side roof may be the term I am looking for.

    I used the invisible walls and it worked fine. Thanks everyone!
