Hello all.
Yes I see the previous thread and it ended with out result.....
I have only done a few designs over the last 25 years that the eave line alignment was the driver behind the design. (Farm/ ranch styles with wrap around porches)
Most of my custom homes have multiple plate heights, a few different roof pitches and varying overhangs.
This occasionally forces different heel heights if the roof ties between main and upper floors.
But that is my choice not because my software can't do it.
I see that there are several different approaches but at the end of the day the software should not dictate my design.
So seeing we all have different requirements a solution is needed.
Some type of variable to set as the dominant controller - eave or heel - would make things more functional for all..........
The "Lollipops" could have that variable so if you have multiple conditions on one project you can control it from each wall line???
Not trying to be a pain in the @#$....!!!
Just frustrated as I am trying to meet a deadline and when designing the roof / elevations I try different looks but things get changed that were not supposed to.
And the heel vs eave situation is what is causing it.
Now I have to do an all-nighter and use AutoCad to draw the elevations tonight for my meeting in the morning.
Thanks
Kris
