The information in this article applies to: QUESTION How do I use the automatic roof tools to create some of the basic kinds of roof styles? ANSWER Automatically creating the basic roof styles in Home Designer can be easy using the Roof panel of the Wall Specification dialog. The Pitch value set in the Build Roof dialog only sets the default pitch for all roof planes in a plan. This default value can be overwritten by specifying a different pitch on the Roof tab of an individual wall's Wall Specification dialog. For this tutorial we will begin by creating a basic 40' x 30' enclosed rectangular structure as in the image below. Use this basic plan when making the changes on any of the following instructions. The roof area is the foundation - the part that sits on top of a structure. Roof area is defined as a rectangle, even if the roof edges are reshaped to hang below it. You cannot change the roof area in finished mode. In wireframe mode adjust the blue handles. They'll snap to roof edges if you get close. In this article, we will show you how to create the following roof styles automatically: • • • • • • • HIP ROOF A hip roof has a roof plane built over every exterior wall in the plan that does not have another wall drawn above it, as shown in the image below. To create a hip roof • By default, a Hip Roof will be automatically created on our 40' x 30' structure without making any changes. • Select Build> Roof> Build Roof to display the Build Roof dialog. • The Roof panel of this dialog will allow you to change the default Pitch of the entire roof, its Minimum Alcove setting, and the Roof Overhang values. Note: If you're using Home Designer Pro, place a check in the 'Build Roof Planes' option at this time. Whenever you want to regenerate the roof planes after making changes to roof directives, it's necessary to place a check in this setting unless you have the Auto Rebuild Roofs setting turned on. • Go to the Materials panel to change the default Roof material, as well set the material for that of other roof aspects, such as the Gutter. • Click OK to apply any changes made in this dialog to rebuild the roof with the new settings. The floor plan view of a standard hip roof will look like the image above. GABLE ROOF If a wall does not have a roof plane bearing on it, then it's a gable wall.
