New tool: roof surface

The Roof task area contains the new Roof Surface tool. You can use this tool to create a roof surface by entering any outline.

You enter the roof parameters in the Properties palette. You can define how far the bottom level of the roof surface is from the reference plane. To select the reference plane, you can use the Relative height dialog box.

For each edge of the roof surface, you can define the horizontal or vertical offset to the outline of the roof surface and the angle or slope. By entering negative values for the angle or slope of the roof surface, you can create butterfly roofs.

What’s more, you can modify roof surfaces without problem.
