Impossible to rotate a complex profile?

Kamelite — Tue, 23 May 2023 12:35:27 GMT

I've made a shape based on a complex profile that is supposed to be Attached to a roof, With the same angle as the roof. But I find it impossible to rotate? The PetPallete that pops up gives me the opportunity to move or stretch my "wall"

Any solutions?

Use your profile as BEAM if you need to rotate it.

Or convert it to a morph and rotate in any direction you want as well as being able to edit the end angles amongst other things.
You can always save it back as an object if you don't want it to remain a morph.

Would this also work where you have a frieze, crown and fascia board with a ogee gutter on it?

I had planned to make the profile of the whole cornice piece and run it around the house. Where I was worried about it is when I use the same profile but without the gutter up along the face of a gable.

I am always finding situations I have a hard time dealing with in AC because I do traditional high end residential homes. Stylistic homes like Italianate, Craftsman, Tudor etc etc that are architecturally correct, not just correct in theory and a builder makes it sort of look like a style.
