^ You don't need to create a new level for roofs, it will be created by the plugin, Elevation will be 0 after your upper level.

What am I doing wrong?

Verify the plugin version.
I suspect you have 3.1.1 NOT 4.0.
On some Windows systems the new plugin version don't replace the old one, so you will have to do this manually or install and use Plugin Manager.

Version 4.0, and @Louis, I'm not adding anything other than a floor, then roof? Even if I place a floor on a new space on the drawing, where nothing has been before, the roof is about 6m up!

@Frazc
Sorry, but with no offense, it is hard for me to believe you.
The described symptoms correspond to 3.1.1 version.
I believe you have download 4.0 version but, from different reasons it is not installed.
So, PLEASE take some screenshots and put it here:
1. Go to Help->About menu and show me whats there (SH3D version, java etc).
2. Go to Help->About->Library... and, on Plug-in section, scroll to GenerateRoof.
If you have Sweet Home 3D version 7.1 and GenerateRoof-4.0
please send me a test file with your issues.
All this could help me (us, the GRT) to fix possible bugs.
Thanks in advance for your patience.

This forum doesn't support attachments so how do you want the files? I have the screenshots showing ver 7.1.1 and ver 4.0 beta 2 for the roof generator.

1. You could use MediaFire and paste the links here.
2. You don't have the final version of Generate Roof. Take it from here

Downloaded that version, restarted it and all looked ok (screenshots in mediafile also). Tried a new roof, same issue. Hopefully you'll see something wrong in my settings or how I am doing this, but I can't find it!

It would be more informative if you share the SH3D file (not the plugin SH3P) and screenshots of your results.
