Kristine Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Hi all. I usually focus on interior decoration concepts so in general roofs aren't a huge factor for me. That said, interiors with custom ceiling planes, etc. do hold importance to some of my plans. But, due to the fact I don't practice working with roofs often I always find getting them right a very frustrating practice! At the moment I am trying to create a windowed gable over this kitchen as per the plans. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much. 23020-TP-2-1_merged (7).pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kristine Posted July 4 Author Share Posted July 4 I tried but it said it was too big. I will try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristine Posted July 4 Author Share Posted July 4 I can't attach the file. I keep getting this error: "1 file was larger than the maximum file size of 14MB, and was skipped". It's a very basic plan at this stage (barely any custom materials or models) so I'm a bit unsure how to make it smaller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mthd97 Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Hi @Kristine, here are a couple of training videos to help you achieve your design requirements. For creating gable roof conditions and for angled windows or glazing.

I have watched multiple tutorials and I still struggle to get them right for my particular applications. That said, it does help to rewatch the instructional videos as my understanding improves. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That video posted above has a normal window that follows the roof pitch that can also be edited further to the desired shape. Must be time to turn on the aircon in California. How many Californians does it take to put a window in a gable ? 3, one to put in the window and the rest to share in the experience man ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristine Posted July 9 Author Share Posted July 9 Thank you so, so much. That was really helpful. Some tips using the auto rebuild function, and an interesting lateral thinking approach. Very much appreciated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
