Roof Maker> Roof Accessories > 0 slope flat roof?

[Anonymous]

I'm trying to make a corrugated flat roof - rather than create a complex profile, which would probably be easier, I've used the Roof Accessories Design Extra to create a corrugated metal roof. That way my 3d views and section cuts are all always correct. This is an existing canopy over a open courtyard. However, there appears to be a default slope that I can't adjust at all. I've set the roof for Monopitch. The slope is roughly 2.5":12'. Obviously there needs to be some slope to the roof, but this is far too great a slope - and I can't figure out how to adjust it.

Any tips?

I just checked using roof accessories, roof surfacer, corrugated roof,
in AC 10 and had no problem making a zero pitch roof with a zero
pitch corrugated roof. I initially drew the roof at 45°, enabled the
roof surfacer, then changed the pitch of the roof to 0° and the
surfacer object followed the new pitch. No problem.
I checked the pitch of the object and it showed as 0°.
I do not know what is causing the problem you are having.
