builtright3 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I would like to know some other ways of making this gable roof over this kitchen window in the attached drawing. I always have to be creative and looking for an easier way. Any thoughts or suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chief58 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Joey since I am one that does 90% or better of my roofs manually I would do it that way, you can do it auto if you set the room wall heights so this migh mean putting in an invisible wall to get the different fascia or baseline heights and adjust from there by selecting each room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justmejerry Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 You might want to try the "Gable Over Door/Window" button in the edit bar when you click on the the window. Might have to play with roof planes after but probably easier than invisible walls etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chief58 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 The other way I would do it without the invisible wall would be to adjust the ceiling height for the right side and put the roof on it the go back and put the room ceiling to default height and put the left pitch on and adjust roof heights and pitch from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg_NY61 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 You can also use Gable/Roof line... Run it close along the roof line where you want you gable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
builtright3 Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 I ended up putting in two interior walls perpendicular to the exterior wall spacing them 4' on each side of the window center to give me a base line for the start of the roof and drew in a manual roof and then deleted the interior walls I used after It was complete. Also I used the "Join Roof Planes" even though I had two different pitches. Took me about 20 minutes and worked like a champ. Thanks for the ideas!
