March 6, 20251 yr comment_18842 I have a design to complete with a very complex roof line where there are multiple different roofs at different angles tilts and hight. How can I extrude all the data with out drawing each and every roof type with PVSOL. Report
March 10, 20251 yr comment_18854 Dear Erich Albrecht, Thank you for your inquiry. For complex buildings, draw a polygon for each roof segment and extrude an ‘Arbitrary Building’ for each polygon. Adjust the roof dimensions (pitch, eaves height) to create a closed roof surface. You can then use the ‘Deactivate Collision’ function (right-click on a roof segment) to move parts of the building into each other (if necessary). In this YouTube video, we use an angled bungalow to show you how you can assemble a complex roof from several roof segments: You can also send us your project file and/or a sketch of your building (hotline@valentin-software.com) and we will make you a proposal on how we would construct the building.
