[Equest-users] Greenhouse Roof

[Sami, Vikram]

Dan,
You need to do this in the detailed edit mode.

Two options:


1.       Create your roof slopes in the wizard and go back in the detailed mode and reassign the walls and the roof from the attic zone created into the greenhouse space. You'll need to delete the attic zone afterwards.

2.       Probably simpler-

a.       create a cuboid zone in the wizard and angle your roof elements in the detailed mode.

b.      If you want to create gables for your wall ends you'll need to create polygons for them.

c.       Create child windows in the roof.

Subject: [Equest-users] Greenhouse Roof

Hello all,

I am trying to model a greenhouse in equest and am having trouble getting a glass roof.  My roof is pitched, so I am not able to get to the skylight screen.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
