The ATKIQuikFix™ for this is to create another material with texture mapped at 90 degrees to the original. It still won't be originated correctly [unless by coincidence] but it will run the right way at least.

Eliminate eave?

im guessing the eave is a separate library part. Unfortunately set the origin doesnt apply to objects. The 3D script needs is the coor and vert commands - Good luck as the manual is fairly unhelpful in this.

The simpler option is to extend the roof and SEO the roof part of the eave

Or make an eave element that doesn't include the roof portion, letting that be continuous with the actual roof....

Thanks Guys for the help... Well, I tried all options with the part.. No luck.. The new material idea would drive me nuts being slightly off even if only I knew (and Dwight.. ) So I just extended the roof overhang.. thankfully it stays "in front" of the Eave part..

The Author must have tested this? I tell you slowly I am realising it is best to do all possible with native AC tools and Libraries..

Thanks Again!
