Gambrel Roof and deck roof

[daydreamer]

Hey jgh,

Is this a 2 story as you indicate or a 1-1/2 story? It doesn't look like a full 2 story to me. The first thumbnail is a "full" 2 story. The last two thumbnails are for 1-1/2 story.

I think the "roof window" you are talking about is a Dormer. If your software has and Automatic dormer you can use it.

Or you can make you own by following the instructions on this link. http://www.homedesignersoftware.com/...?faqNumber=396

For the deck roof do as described. Then double-click on the railing wall to the left of the double doors. Under the Roof tab, select Full Gable. Then in the data field next to Pitch enter 2.

If you need more help come back.
