I can't figure this out. I have tried extending and mathing the slope and building a roof patch and joining the geometry. Any assitance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sandra Dee

Can you send us a layout of the final roofyou want so we can figure out what you want to do?

I need it to look like the attached JPG but without the lines.
Where the higher roof peak joins with the lower, I need it to slope back using the pitch of the lower roof slope.

Your drawing suggest to me a roof like the one in the following enclosed file. Is this your intend? Otherwise, I still need a more explicit drawing from you. Ciao

I would simply suggest you set the ridge height for both roofs at the same elevation. Is there a reason why the roof on the left needs to be higher then the roof on the right? (Going by your latest attachment)
Come to think of it. When you draw the outline of the roof on the left, make sure that it is offset from the ridge of the roof on the right. An 8th of an inch should be sufficient.
Is this what your looking for?(attached)

The reason can be describe with one word "Remodel". The higher roof is going to be an open beam ceiling attaching to the existing lesser pitched roof.
I have seen rendered images similiar to what I'm doing, I just can't figure out the steps to achieve the effect.

Finally! The Newbie thing is going to kill me. Here's the file so that hopefully no other newbies have to struggle.
Thanks to all of those that helped.

I'm sure you're tired of such dumb questions but here goes again. I looked at your 3D roof model of uneven roof heights intersecting and that looks great but how do you do it. Having the model doesn't explain the steps to me. Is there a video I can view to better understand this seemingly simple roof intersection. I would have thought that Revit would do this automatically since it happens in the real world all the time.
