Scissor Truss

[Blazer76]

Hi all,

 

Pro Version

 

I followed the instructions and also a youtube video showing how to create scissor trusses but it doesn't work for me at all. I created the ceiling planes and things like the video below but it never shows the void that's discussed in the video.

You need to create the void -- a gap between the ceiling and roof planes.

Thanks for the info! I was able to make the scissor style but now the end walls have no trusses as seen in the attached.

You're going to want to draw those ceiling planes more accurately and also specify whether or not your gable end walls are balloon framed or not in order to auto build an end truss.
