    Covered Decks?

    Is it possible to draw a shed-style roof off of another style roof to only cover a deck? If so, how? If not, any suggestions?

    Of course! What kind of problem are you having? Deck's don't automatically generate a roof, so you do need to open up the Room's Specification dialog and check Roof over this Room.

    Have you seen these articles?

    Is there a place to download the plan shown in the thumbnail? I can't for the life of me get this dual pitch to work in Suite.
