Hi all, how can I draw this church steeple, without using GDL, of course.
I trying Mesh to Roof, but I can't define the curves, is too complicated.
I have Archicad 13.
Sorry for my bad english.
Thanks in advance.

Once you've made the profile, use the magic wand with 'linear segments' to place eight straight custom profile segments within the circle diameter.

Great illustration/example, Dwight!

...and to Emyl001 - when you read about defining Custom Profiles, you will see that you can define different materials for different edges / surfaces using the pet palette...

Cheers,
Karl

For-mentioned edge control.
Click on any edge between two nodes, then while holding down the mouse,
this little icon is your friend.

@ Steve Jepson - I don't know what is the name of the church and where is it.
It's just a picture.
