[Equest-users] Custom Roof

[William Lulevitt]

Hi all, my name is William Lulevitt, I am a new member here.  I have a question about modeling  custom roof.  I am currently working on a project that need a custom roof.  I would like to model the roof using the wizard mode, but that seems impossible. When I upload the CAD file of a roof for the building I am working on, it still won't work.  The wizard mode seems to have a pre-defined roof shape based on the dots that are added onto the floor plan. Instead I went to detailed mode to create a custom roof that matched by my building.   I had to create each individual polygon and assign them to the a particular zone, but this takes a lot of time and debugging the model.  So the question is can I create a custom roof just using wizard mode.  See the pictures below.
