How to rotate vertically "parallel chord" (steel joist bar element) library object?

Hello everyone,

I am trying to model metal roof structure in ArchiCAD 24.

I use complex profile for steel beams (which works perfect).
Then I also try to use "parallel chord" library object. However, I don't see the option to rotate it vertically.
Is it possible to do so?

I have read that library objects can't be rotated vertically (without messing with GDL). So how do you model metal roof with steel joists rotated vertically?

Thank you,

Roman
