Plan calls for a Double Cross Gable Roof with one at 12/12 pitch and cross roof at 9/12 pitch and same ridge heights.  I have tries using the Add Gable Valley feature but it has never let me do all 4 corners of the roof and it doesn't seem to like different pitches.  The Help for this feature is no help at all.  Anyone done this?  BTW, I do not want false gables.

Don't know any way to do that without using false gables.  Someone else may be able to chime in with something else.

Yes, Steve that is the "look".  Question is how to create it the way it would be built.  How did you do it?  I only want a single cross.

You could draw two roofs one going each direction and then use auto hole to remove the intersecting parts.
