If you are using multiple <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Single-Plane<E></E> roofs, you should get a snap point on where they intersect.<BR /> <BR /> <BR /> <BR /> Ling.

So I asume there is two ways, single plane and get intersection between them and multiplane and then reducing planes, editing ridges. I made one using this second method, now I need to adjust the angle of the slopes, but apparently It doesn't allow me to do it, I got a "!" close to the angle in the dialogue window.

The <B>"!"</B> in the roof settings indicates that your pitches are not consistent across the faces of your roof and that changing the pitch in the main dialogue will not affect these faces that have a custom pitch. To modify these faces, you will have to enter that faces dialogue via the pitching line again. If you have a lot of unique pitches, I would advise against using a <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Multi-Pitch<E></E> as I find it is more trouble that it is worth if there is a chance of the pitches changing.<BR /> <BR /> Much like the <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Stair, Rail and Curtain Wall Tools<E></E> after initially creating the object, you can modify individual parts. Once a part has been modified in in this way, it will no longer follow changes made in the objects main settings dialogue.<BR /> <BR /> <BR /> <BR /> Ling.
