roof with 2 different slopes

[Anonymous]

I have included a picture of the roof I am working on.  As you can see I have 2 different roofs set up here, which doesnt look very good.  I was wondering if there is a way to create one roof with 2 different slopes like I have here?  I would like it to start out at a 3/12 slope for the first 4 feet and then switch to a 6/12 for the rest of the roof.  I have not been able to figure out how to get this to work.

You could try using a Roof by Extrusion, in a Section or Elevation you draw the profile / slopes of the two planes and

finish sketch, and it extrudes the roof. You can then edit how far back it needs to extend.

Another method is to model the individual rooofs as single roofs in plan, and then specify the edges which Define Slope.

Then use Join Geometry to clean them up.

I would go with the 2 different roofs - make them with their proper slopes and then use the join roof command to connect them. That would work best.

Seriously ridiculous you can't make a gable roof with 2 different slopes.
