Hi,

I just checked the file you sent me and anything seems to be OK.
I will directly contact GS about this issue also if I already have a clue about what is happening but I don’t want to bore you with too much technical issues.
The only workaround, actually, is to save your roof element as object (using ArchiForma itself or the standard ArchiCAD procedure, of course I suggest you the first one), in this case the solid operation works fine.
Don’t worry about optional later modification: just keep the original object in a safe place (if you will use ArchiForma to save the element as object, ArchiForma will automatically save a module file including the original elements) then, if you need to modify it, just open the original, make your changes and then save again the as object by using the same name (overwriting the previous one) and the previously placed object will be update.

About the other trouble, sorry but I’m not able to get the same wrong result.
I also just tried with your roof element: I copied and pasted it on another file and it still a modifiable ArchiForma element so…
