Skylight not cutting roof surface

DenisUser
Booster

Hey,

 

What can be the problem if my skylight object does not cut roof surface? It kind of seems like skylight does not attach itself to the roof surface, but I tried it on different stories on a floor plan and in 3D it still does not attach itself nor cut the roof.

I have used skylights in AC27 where it worked fine, but had to do one project now in AC26 and for some reason I cannot get it to cut the roof.

 

Operating system used: Windows 4019

Oh boy...

Yes indeed. I thought it would be something simple and a bit stupid 😄

It is the end of the work day here and the brain is tired 😄

Thank you.
