Hi All

I have to have a roof where the rafters are exposed.  I have followed the example in the support section but I am left a roof with the exposed plywood.  I know I can probably fix it with a polyline solid but I am wondering if there is a better way.

 

THanks in advance !

      Different Rafter Cuts?
      By KRosen
      So I'm trying to get my rafter ends to show up like so (please ignore the rafter tails for all intent and purposes). I've tried adjusting the birdsmouth settings to get the desired result but no matter what I do, I can't get the seat cut. I can only get a plumb cut or a square cut, and the plumb cut is going through the floor and walls. Can someone please help, because this is driving me crazy! (also the steeper roof pitch is 25":12")

      rafter ends, some plumb and some square
      By MN_JohnH
      I am wondering if there is a way to have some rafters plumb cut and some square cut on the same roof plane?
      Or can I somehow take a single roof rafter and change the angle cut on the bottom, (or top for that matter).
      It would be nice if I could go to a cross section and manipulate the shape like I can with a poly line solid.

      Add shiplap to exposed gable on Porch over frame
      By Travis-Garcia
      I cannot seem to figure out how to make this exposed gable have the same shiplap siding on it that the house has. I built the patio piece by piece using framing members and added roof planes and ceiling planes then added the gable. Now II cannot figure out how to add siding.

      Timber Frame Birdsmouth
      By greglocke
      I have tried every check box I can try and cannot get the birdsmouth on my rafters to lower down onto my beams.  Does anyone have any idea what I'm missing?

      Roofs - Combination of exposed decorative framing
      By Lilidesignbuild
      Hello please see the attached picture of what I'm trying to draw. It's a tile roof with partially exposed decorative framing. 
      I did a typ. roof then I drew the rafters and beams manually, but I can't seem to give them a pitch. 
       
      Thanks!
