Adding a Single Eave Macro

When you open a roof layout, the program adds eave macros automatically to it. If it is a complex roof, part of the automatically added eave macros may be incorrect. You can remove the incorrect eave macros, and add new macros one by one.

1. Do either of the following:
   • Select Roofs > Roof Siding Material Layout Tool > Add Eave Macro.
   • Select the function in the project's document browser:
     1. Open the branch Architectural documents / Roof layout.
     2. Move the cursor on a name of a roof layout, for example roof_layout.
     3. Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu.
     4. Select Add Eave Macro.
2. Select the roof.
3. Select the start point of the eave (A).
4. Select the end point of the eave (B). The order in which the points are selected defines on which side of the eave the macro is added.

   

5. Select one of the following as the eave type:
   • Ridge HA
   • Hip UT
   • Valley ST
   • Gable eave PR
   • Side eave SR
   • Eave against a side wall SS
   • Eave against a gable wall PS
