Bermuda Roof

Anonymous
Not applicable
So far I have used the profile tool to get the shape of a Bermuda Roof which so far seems to be working. Does anyone know how I can edit the object so that I can have two roofs intersect with one another without having them overrun each other?
If there is another way to get a Bermuda Roof in 3DA?

Make the individual stepped planks as individual roof planes slightly less inclined than the overall roof, stting on that roof. The different parts will merge in the section if you use the right fill type.

In Bermuda not so long ago and thought that the Bermuda roof would be a good exercise for the roof tool. The Bermuda ArchiCAD localization toolbar also has a triangle and shorts tool.
