Draw the simple roof and then convert to roof slabs using the convert tool on the ribbon. That gives separate grips and properties for each roof plane.
@ausacadotblogspot Great point on how flexible the tools can be. I hope to eventually do more videos on such topics. My busy schedule has slowed down my production of videos recently...
hi jeremytf77, one can apply converting walls and/or polylines into roof with only "one click", without walls tracing, from pallete tool. You need to select all the walls/polylines you need and then right click the pallete tool. some people , as me)):: like that method very much.
How does one make a single slope roof and change the pivot line from running parallel to a wall, to a pivot line that runs from one corner to an opposite corner? Say a 20' square room and the pivot would be from one corner to the opposite corner leaving the 3rd corner low and the 4th corner high?
Just wonderful, I been tryin to find out about "shed roof framing with 8 foot rise" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Beybigail Nonpareil Breakthrough - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is an awesome exclusive product for discovering how to create better sheds and improve your woodworking without the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my cousin got amazing success with it.
