It is not currently possible to change the gable direction. But solar gains on opaque surfaces, especially if the surfaces are adjacent to unconditioned space (attic) or are insulated, are not that important. In fact, most residential software tools don't even ask the user for the details of their roof/gable walls. It is far more important to get the window areas & orientations correct.
