As you can see,

I created a Metal Building Roof Dynamic Section For some reason when I rotate it, it breaks apart as you can see in My snips.  I have attached my block, if someone can tell me why this is happening. - Thanks Byron

If you delete the Move action the adressed problem goes away. But because I do not yet full understand the expected behavior of the block I can not submit a suggestion how to get the wished functionality.

I need the Move action because I change my roof width and pitch to fit building by extending the array function and it keeps the end section at the end next to ridge. Thanks Byron

If you remove the chained property of the Distance 1 parameter, the rotation works fine.  There don't seem to be any actions that act on the Distance 1 parameter other than the rotate action which does not affect the linear distance so the array action is unaffected, but the rotate activates the move action in an unwanted manner.  I do not see any reason why you would have made the linear parameter chained.  With it un-chained, the unwanted move action is eliminated and the array action is unaffected.  Seems like a simple fix.

Thank you, I have attached my sections I am developing for clarity of what I am trying to accomplish. I do not understand removing the move parameter on distance 1. How can I keep moving the last section to stay on the end.

You did not yet "remove the chained property of the Distance 1 parameter" as suggested by @libbybapa .
