Trying to build a mansard roof. Made side surface of roof by creating an angled plane as an In-Place Mass and followed by making mass surface into my wall type. This was successful but now i need to put openings into this newly created angled wall so that the intersecting walls containing windows can penetrate through.

How can i create an angled wall that has openings within it?

If I need a wall, I create a wall, not a mass.  I extruded an in-place family at the right angle - wall category, then copied it, added my dormer walls - and of couse, because they are not masses, the walls all clean up.
