Spanish Tile Roof Eave Modeling Help

Do you guys have any ideas for how to model the traditional clay tile eave condition in my photos below?

I'm using the built-in roof surfacer set to "Italian Tiles" and have my ridges covered with the built-in Ridge Tile object.  I can rotate the ridge tile object in plan and in elevation to accommodate my roof slopes....I was hoping I could rotate it in section to create that eave condition, but it won't do that.  This is a very typical condition in a lot of my upcoming projects so I'd love to find a solution!

 

Any ideas???  thanks

Once more, in case the photos didn't come through in the original post

You would need a barge object that can do tiles along its length.

I an not sure if there is an object that does this in the default library as I don't use it and don't have Archicad in front of me at the moment to check.

 

Or maybe you could use a segmented inclined beam with tapered profiles?
