  1. Create a closed wire with following the counter-clockwise direction and select it.
  2. Press the Arch Roof button, or press R then F keys
  3. The default roof object could have a strange shape, it's because the tool is missing some necessary information.
  4. After creating the default roof, double click on the object in the tree view to access and edit all the properties. Angle must be between 0 and 90.
  5. Each line corresponds to a roof pane. So you can set the properties you want for each roof pane.
  6. To help you, you can set Angle or Run to 0 and define a Relative Id, this makes an automatic calculation to find the data relative to the Relative Id.
  7. It works like this:
    1. If Angle = 0 and Run = 0 then profile is identical to the relative profile.
    2. If Angle = 0 then Angle is calculated so that the height is the same one as the relative profile.
    3. If Run = 0 then Run is calculated so that the height is the same one as the relative profile.
  8. Finally, set an Angle to 90° to make a gable.
