Hi,

I have a very specific problem I have attached a photo to help describe it.

I created dormers in the roof in the proper locations.  The dormers themselves serve an aesthetical purpose, they also help allow extra light into the building. They are ment to be built up from a rafter system, the cut off for the dormer walls should be at the rafters where they connect. This is not how the drawing turned out. 

If you look at the image, inside the window we can see the walls protruding through the roof and hanging into the room below. I need these walls to not be there as they are not part of the intended structure. I need the walls to cut off at the rafters of the roof structure. How can I accomplish this?

Try attaching the walls to the roof (not sure if you can attach the base to a roof), and if that doesn't work edit the wall profile.

You can attach the "Base" wall to the roof...

That's what I assumed, but I was feeling to lazy to actually test it.
