    I don't have the same options, but I do have the upper and lower pitch spec on my specification window. But they do not allow me to set one at 8 and one at 4. It automatically switches to same number for both pitches.

    Did you check the box next to the "Upper"?

    I have tried it both checked and unchecked and it makes no difference. No matter what numbers I use all roofs end up with the same pitch.

    Here is a picture of what I am trying to fix. The porch should have a roof pitch of 4/12 and the house 8/12. Both are instead always the same.

    So the porch roof is not going into the house roof..Just open the front porch wall and set the pitch at 4..

    Yes that did it. Thanks for your help. Now all I need is to figure out porch posts, windows, doors, foundation, and the interior. Easy...
