Is it possible to do a Barn Style (Gambrel) roof in V14.  I have the trial version, and cannot get it to add roof sections to a gabled roof which is the way it was done in the old version I have V11.  I have tried right clicking on the roof section which will add a section on V11, but it did not work for me on V14.  If there is another way to add section please let me know.

Hi!
In TFP 14 Gambrel= Mansard roof

You have to change long side or short side to a gable

or you go from hip to Gambrel roof with help Custom roof with 2 section and different slop-angel

In this image I have use a 12/12 pitch Hip roof, I made the short side to gable
Then marked the 2 arrows on the long side and made 2 section sektion 1=50 degrees sloop and section 2= 30 degrees the set the
you can try different settings to Horiz. and Vert. Distance and slope value but slope value 1 must be greater then slope value 2
