I can't get the roof framing to go up to the to beams on top of walls. .This is a remodel and raising walls to get more ceiling height. I don't want to just make the walls taller, I doing it this way for a reason.

Try shortening the wall below temporarily, move the roof controls point (lollipop) to the section that has no wall under it. Then turn off cleanup on that section of roof before moving wall back.

As Heath says, the key is making sure that the control points (lollipops) reference the beam and not the wall.

Or, make yourself a new wall definition including the beam and all the details of how that will be framed (as much as SP will allow) then replace your existing walls and beams with the new wall definition.
