Extruding 3-D objects with inclination from non-rectangular polygons

[Ricardo]

Good morning and happy new year,

Is it possible to extrude 3-D objects with inclination from non-rectangular polygons? I have the following building, which  has two eaves, one facing east and the other facing west:

 

 

I see I can extrude a 3-D object but I can only find the option to make it flat and in real life each eave has a 6º inclination. What I have done up to now in similar cases is simply to make a rectangle, extrude that and then not put modules on the parts of the building which don't actually exist. However, that will not work here, as there are other buildings nearby and this one would collide with them if I make it any bigger.

 

Is there a solution for this?

Hi Ricardo,

you can extrude the 3D object from a non-rectangular polygon and apply the inclination afterwards. Just right click on the object, select "Edit", then choose the edge that should act as rotation/inclination axis and enter an inclination value:

Hope that helps, kind regards,

Martin

It does, thanks a lot!
