Roof Wizard

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello all,
Does anyone here know how to properly build a roof using the wizard.
Meaning I need a roof that shows the components for presentation purposes.
Rafters, Ridges, blocking, fascia, collar ties (offset not under the rafter), etc.

Thanks.

P.S. The wizard does a good job on placing most pieces in its place, the rafter ties did not place where supposed, instead they placed underneath the rafters, which in real time it doesn't work.

Archicad 17 and Mac OSX latest build of both.

Well, it looks like after you create the "roof" via the wizard, the roof elements can be selected individually or in groups and further editing can be done as to select both, right, left for placement of collar ties, and or adjusting its height in the framing.
Not user intuitive when you have to build first and then edit.
