roof and surface questions
Hello! I love this program ... although I will draw the actual building prints with Autocad, this is fantastic way to show non technical people how the house will actually look ... and a good double check for myself to make sure everything fits.

Two questions:

1) How do you put a roof on a building? I don't see how I can put in a surface at an angle. I "cheated" for now, drawing the roof as section of sloping wall.

2) Is there a way of making a "wavy" surface. I have a topigraphical map of the lot I have purchased. It would be nice if I could enter a grid of 3D points (since I have all the elevation points) and then have the computer generate a surface ( the topography of the land).

Thanks again so much ...... Mike
