I am drawing a screen room on a existing house.  The screen room has 4' knee walls and then screen and the header at the top of the wall.  When I draw my roof it lands on the 4' knee wall.  How do I raise the roof to the proper position?

In the wall profile is the header marked as load bearing?

Just adjust the seat cut by how high you need it to sit.

That's not going to work our well if he then edits more sections of the roof.  Then SP will adjust the heel height and the roof will drop down 4 or 5' again.  It seems to me it would be better to fix the wall so the the error is small with SP does it's business.

I used to have the same issue. Now I have a wall with the knee (usually 2'), screen wall, and then a beam. When I draw the roof it goes to the beam and not the knee wall.
