I tried to trim the roof, but it's not working.
Second option was to try to move theese nods, but that also doesn't work properly because I can't move this small part and I have this elevation on my roof.

Can someone explain me this properly how to do it? Thanks.




Edit: images are not shown when I add image tag, so i change them to live link.

Here is how the roof looks in the end. This part is only problem.

Yes, and I managed to do it now. For the right roof i just drawn new roof like this and just moved the nods from the left part.

This is done in Paint, I don't have it in ArhiCAD anymore...
