    You can post the plan.
    Dumb question=Are you sure those are the right roof edges?
    I have done that before..

    The render seems to be at a ridge but the plan seems to be at a wall. A little hard to be sure.

    Check the framing options for each roof plane. You have different settings in the "Width" column for the "Gable Fascia" and "Eave Fascia", 3/4" versus 1-1/2".

    I had the same thing you were getting.
    Replaced the right side roof plane and it fixes it.
    That is a good one to send into support..
