    Pitch on a shed roof

    I have been trying many roof setting combinations to set the pitch of a shed roof over a first floor shed at a lower pitch than the main roof. Image attached. The left and right walls of the shed were set to High Shed. Attempts to tweak the roof type and upper pitches all failed. Rather than bore you with all the settings I've tried, could someone tell me how to set the shed pitch at, say, 3-in-12 when the main roof is at 6-in-12?

    Rick,

    Looks like that worked on yours. I changed to a single story and tried what you suggested, but the software switches the pitch back to the default no matter what I do. I noticed I can't change ceiling heights from the default either. Is there somewhere I can unlock them?

    Are you removing the (D) for default when you enter a new value?

    Hal,

    My thumbnail in post #2 is a single story "room" for both the shed and the main room. And make certain that you do as dr0591 says in the above post.
