Create an automatic roof valley

Level : Intermediate

Draw an automatic roof valley with two gable roofs.


Draw the gable roofs

⚠️ Add a level with exterior walls to draw the roof in order to create a false ceiling in the living space.

1.  In the "Roof" step, draw the first gable roof on the main part of the project.


2.  Draw the second gable roof on the extension of the house.

Trigger the automatic valley

⚠️ To create the valley, the two roofs must have opposing ridge directions.

1.  Select the edge of the smaller roof from which the valley should start to change the slope direction.


2.  Scroll down the right column and select the "Ridge Start" checkbox if it is not already selected.


3. Scroll back up the right column to select the valley.

❗ The software automatically detects the possibility of creating a valley.

⚠️ Ensure the valley tip does not exceed the main ridge (adjust the roof slopes if necessary).
