Roof Surfaces: Standing Seam, Corrugated metal . . .

Aloha
I cannot find the tool to create 3d corrugated roofs, standing seam et al.

I used it a while back, it had lots of controls, height and spacing of seams

It worked on all sorts of hip roofs.

many thanks for directing me to that magic button.

As you are in AC11, select your roof(s) and go to Design> Design Extras> Accessories> Roof Accessories menu

(then you can delete your other thread before someone replies to it Also add your AC version and OS into your signature for future reference))

Check in Options> Add-On Manager to see if the accessory is available. You may need to go to Help> Archicad11 Goodies and download it first (I think our NZ edition comes with all these add-ons already to go), then go to Add-On Manager and make sure it is loaded.

I think...

Yes, USA users must download and install the accessories add-on goodie (and download and install the separate library!!).. Be warned that some of the roof add-ons can really add to your poly count so be judicious. Good luck.
