note:
i'm on vacation with no softplan.
hut here goes.
you first need to save that elevation and open the vis line drawing (SPD)
draw in the shape of the roof looking from the front. just like
it's shown in the image using a / shape / arc / ser
draw a centerline
NOTE: your going to use HALF of the shape (RIGHT side) so make sure there's
a break at the center.
now go to either system or drawing options / library / roof profile
(no access to softplan so remembering from memory which puts
me at major disadvantage - now what's the question ?)
can't remember what's next but it has something to do with
drawing a BOX around the profile and giving it a NAME
and saving it.
i'll presume you've put a roof on it to get some sort of an elevation
to create your PROFILE.
now edit the HIP sides and change the style to "PROFILE"
change the profile to the NAME you just created.
right click on the other side HIP and left click on "repeat edit"
you might have to edit the > height & width on both sides
tip: have a 3d open to see your progress.
note: it does take a little getting used too but
really not that difficult.
note: if your having problems, i'd be happy to hook up to
your computer when i get back on saturday night.
we'll use go to meeting.

IMPORTANT:
attach your SPD files.
you can also include your SPP files
but not super important.
