multi-plan roof gable edge adjustment

[heathldesign]

hey everyone, i have a multi-plane roof and at the gable ends you can adjust the roof gable overhang, but what i need to do is adjust the lower roof portion edge instead. hard to explain. hopefully the pic will explain. it seems that this edge is always associated with the pivot line, but because the lower roof portion is a hip roof, i can't move the pivot line without affecting the overhang and hip locations. so is there a way to move the "ridge" portion of the lower roof in the direction of the arrow? see pic

Hi,

Is this that you want to achieve ?

Hi mthd,

this will work for the final plans and modelling, but i was hoping there was a way to do it while retaining all the dynamic adjustments that can be made to the whole roof object as a multi-plane roof. this flexibility is very helpful for fine tuning the roof profile with clients. the break it into separate single plane roofs will allow greater flexibility, but then defeats the purpose of a multi-plane roof tool. thanks for the the tip everyone, i can move forward at least.

Hi BrunoH,

your result is not quite real world. see my pics. we usually want roof overhangs on the gable, and we also want the gable edges to line up with the valley (hard to explain see pics) converting to single plane roofs works perfectly, but defeats the point of having a multi-plane roof tool imo.
