[Equest-users] sloped roof in equest

Deepika,

One of the common mistakes I make when I create a roof in DD edit is
forgetting to locate it at the right height. Make sure your z=building
height or wall height, whichever is appropriate. It's not too hard to do
this in DD edit as long as you keep track of the x, y, z, tilt and azimuth.
Kudos for you for tackling it!
