Excellent live modeling session today with Aaron, if you didn’t catch it then please watch it here:
With the complex roof module the situation where I have the algorithm breaking down is where the fascia line or gutter line is non-continuous (vertically) around the roof. It is a bit difficult to explain this particular situation in words but the model below presents an excellent example of what I am describing:
COMPLEX_ROOF_STUDY1.skp (1.3 MB)
However after drawing a few more test models and giving it some additional thought I think I can devise a more complicated and general algorithm that will allow for these step ups or step downs. I think the user would start with the fascia line being the same all the way around but then have some sort of option where they can select (multiple) roof planes or along the roof perimeter and then step it up or step it down.
