ARCHICAD 28 ON A MAC PLATFORM. Is there a way to make a rotated roof, as shown in the attached picture? The small cricket roofs

The dormers? The change in roof pitch around the dormers? Not really sure what you mean by "rotated roof"...

Try modelling the roof plan in the 3D window.

This will allow you to have a roof where the pivot line is not perpendicular or parallel to all of the others.

I think this is what you mean by a twisted roof.

Just a panel place to fill a gap.
