What's the recommended way for doing a simple roof at the top of a curved wall? Like a barrel roof. There used to be some functionality to do this that doesn't appear in ArchiCAD 26. I know I can use complex profiles, but it's not a roof, such as if I want to do a composite roof.

We used to have a dome and barrel roof, but those options disappeared with the introduction of the Shell tool.
Although not a 'roof' it can use composites and can be connected to other shells (and I think roofs).
It can be classified as a roof element if that is important to you for export to other programs or for quantities.
So use the shell tool.
