Convert polyline to beam
Hello. I need different depth of cross section beam. How can I convert my own draw shape to beam?
And other question is how draw rafter with angle. But I had manually changed walls studs and heights. With automatic roof framing these rafters been horizontal.

You can turn off automatic roof framing and resize and change the positions of roof framing members manually by moving/stretching them either in plan or in elevation, or by opening the framing member's dbx and checking Manual Height, and changing numbers there. If that doesn't work, draw a polyline solid in a cross section view, Convert to Polyline Solid and put that on the same layer as your roof framing and that can give you some more control as to the shape, size position, etc. of your beam.
