Windows in a inclined roof Hello, First of all, sorry for my very bad English, and I want to thank for this interesting and friendly software I am trying to design my attic to do some changes. I designed two rooms, a bath and a open space, but I have two questions: 1. I can not see the roof in the 3D view. 2. I do not know how to put 4 windows in the inclined roof (one for every room and two in the open space I attach a file for better comprehension http://rapidshare.com/files/773627144/Planta_2.sh3d Best regards |

Re: Windows in a inclined roof no2, You may want to read the tutorial about roofs (PDF). It shows a solution. Of course you can also insert a window in the roof parts before you export and import them. Then the window lies flush in the roof. If you have more questions, please ask.

Re: Windows in a inclined roof The ceiling isn't visible from top by design (otherwise you wouldn't be able to see your layout from top). Inclined windows are not really supported: since version 3.4, you can choose the angle you want when you import a 3D model, but then holes in the ceiling won't be computed automatically. Please, read also this document for nice workarounds found by hansmex. ---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: Windows in a inclined roof no2, Attached you will find two files: - your house with roof and windows - the roof with windows, before using export/import (see tutorial). To make such a roof, and make sure it fits nicely on the house, it's wise to give your walls exact X,Y coordinates. Mouse-drawn coordinates are not very precise, and therefor it will be difficult to make a roof that fits well. Study the files, and let me know if this is what you wanted.
