[Equest-users] sloped roof in equest

[deepika khowal]

thanks all

I actually succeeded in making anew polygon to create the new roof....
However, in the triangle shaped side wall of the sloping roof, I want to add
glass for skylight. the polygon properties does not allow me to add triangle
shaped glass to the roof.
Is there a way to do it?
Thanks
Regards
Deepika
