SteveT Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Hello folks, I'm working in X11 and I my plan from the front is a building with three equal part with the the left and right parts bumping out about five feet (see attached: the front is on the right side of the plan). I want the front profile to basically look like this: .^^^. looking at it from the front. In other words, I want it to be as if I had three separate buildings that each had full gable roofs, but one building with the roofs merging into each other. Is there any way to do this with the automatic roof generator? Thanks for your help, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure but the purpose of a roof is usually to keep the rain out right ? Actually it won't quite do it unless I missed a setting but not a very good idea no matter where you live unless I got it all wrong ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveT Posted January 6, 2022 Author Share Posted January 6, 2022 Yes, that's perfect. But you are right, this is probably a bad idea. I need to re-think my design. Thank you very much for your help. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 You could likely divert the water to the front and back with a cricket but that usually just looks like a mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 This would probably shed water better. Done with auto roofs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
