Intersection of composite roof and and composite wall in section View

Hello!

I searched the forum for a solution and all I found was a post from 2008.

I am trying to get a composite roof to intersect with a composite wall in section view. It's a section of a pool. Should I make the the composite roof a custom profile? Or make everything a custom profile? Thank you so much for your input.Screenshot_1.jpg

Composite & complex profiled walls are the same when talking about intersections with composite roof, the only way is to adjust building materials intersection priority values to determine which skin to penetrate or stop.

You could create a parametric profile for that vertical Wall piece and you could define the Profile to be the exact look you want to achieve in section. It may need to be parametric if the distance between the top roof and the bottom connecting structure is not constant.

Hi,

Did you try to connect the wall to the roof with the "Connect / Connect to Roof/Shelf" command.

Material's intersection priority will be applied (see attatch)
