Roofs - possible combining?

[Anonymous]

Hi, I'm new to the forum and the program, but I have encountered my first problem - how to merge roofs with different levels of ridges?

Design -> Connect -> Merge Elements does not work 😕

I need merging in order to use roof wizard.

You need to select your roofs in the floor plan.
It can't be done in the 3D window.

It is also possible to create your roof with a single multi-plane roof (irregular shape) rather than joining 3 roofs together - so long as your pivot lines are all the same height.
Or you could edit the shape of the main rectangular roof by adding nodes on the pivot line ad stretching the edge to make the attached roofs.

Or you might want to select the Roofs you want to merge, right-click and select the Connect\Trim Elements to Roof/Shell command of the context menu, then select the Use Roof/Shell from current selection, then click Trim.
With this command those portion of one Roof that falls within the Trimming body (the pinkish body you see displayed) of the other Roof will be removed, and vice versa.

But Barry is right, it would probably best to create the whole thing out of a single Multi-plane Roof.
