  1. Michael, I really appreciate the video...I tried this and still ZERO results....your method works perfect when going through the direction that the original polyline solid was created...see below (I extended the solid through the roof and tried to add the hole above so that it would be easier to see):

    Hole added using your method above the roof

    Solid turned 90 degrees (not the direction that the solid was made)

    Followed same process that created the original hole above the roof but when I clicked "delete" the solid disappeared but no hole....

  2. Craigevans...not sure if this house has been built but I took the opportunity for a few exterior "design tweaks" with the roof line...just something that I enjoy doing.  You might not like the changes to the roofline but I thought that it could use a bit more of a "Custom" look and keep the focus on the Entry and main part of the house and not be distracted by the small hip roof on the last garage stall.  All I did was swap which garage stall stood forward the most and then proceeded to tweak the roofline without any other structural changes.  I also played with an option for you with a Gabled Entry to further add focus and definition as a focal point.  I also used my Rendering settings and let it rip over night for 12 hours....hope you like!  The first pic shows the old vs new Elevation, the 2nd your roofline, the 3rd using my roofline with the 12 hour Raytrace and then the 4th with a Gabled Entry.  I'd be curious for other's feedback as well!
