Was the previous roof flat like this? I thought it was sloped...

It was sloped. ... and only about 8' off the ground at the outside edge. Which is what cut off the view of the mountain tops. This ceiling is flat and eliminates the roosting places for doves ... who made a mess with droppings from their nests. The roof (in contrast to the ceiling) is sloped toward the house ... and on to another sloped area to allow rain water to drain appropriately.
