Wondering what the process is to adjust the softplan symbols for downspouts. My standard roof overhang is 16".

Unfortunately we cannot control the stretch in all axis. I just try to get it close if I am showing them. I think there are a few pieces too (just closed the project I was working on or I'd check). Or, you can use 3D Solids and create your own if not wanting to use SketchUp.

Thanks Mark, I don't usually mess with them. I have an architectural review board in Colorado Springs that wants me to show them. I guess they don't have enough to do. lol

Do you have to get your gutter spouts designed and stamped by an engineer there?   :wacko:

David, I will probably show them on the elevation and then get rejected because I didn't specify what gauge the material is!  :)
