Hi All

I have had a lot of trouble with roofs like many other posters it seems. My biggest problems are where I have intersections of roofs created in different levels. Below is a screen shot of what I am dealing with I need the roofs to intersect properly. The top roof which is loft extension roof needs to be shaped at the intersection with the truncated hip section which is a kind of mansard.

Thanks

Hi Typhoon

Thanks for the excellent video. I would strongly recommend this to others!!

I am trying to apply this lesson to my case. I am still having some trouble I think because the two roofs are made from two different levels.

I will report back soon

Hi Typhoon

I have tried your advice and am still having trouble

I have managed to make a video using Jing but I need to email it to you to look at as I don't have the security clearance to set up the web access. It is about 1.8M

Thanks

Neil

Hi, in TOP of your Screen you have the yellow half circle, so when you go to there appears 3 "Legs", pick in the middle "History", then appears a box like a folder and you can see all the videos and images you take with JING, so check what do you want and pick ONCE in that file (image or video), then in bottom of that "File" you have 3 icons, pick in the first (like  3 arrows to UP), wait and "in TOP of your Screen you have the yellow half circle," START to round, if you pick in there you see a yellow box with the progress of the download, when "He" finished appears a new yellow box telling you that "the file is...", so in that moment if you are sending a email or you are here making a post if you do CTRL-V, you past the adress where you have that file in your folder in "SCREENCAST".... if you have doubts say it...
