Re: transparent vertical and horizontal glass square
Is there really no way to cut objects, or to at least make them invisible partially?


No, there is no way in SH3D for what you wish.

Re: transparent vertical and horizontal glass square
Without seeing the shape of your roof its hard to be certain, but it does sound like you need to use a wall, set its width and height to suit, then position ANY window with the dimensions matching your velux, export > import, set its angle, make the window invisible and then position your velux. You may need a couple of attempts at the wall height as this shortens as you angle it.
Good Luck

It's a great idea!
We can use "Copy as new furniture" tool instead of import/export (http://www.sweethome3d.com/support/forum/viewthread_thread,1331_offset,11)

So:
1. Draw wall and put window in it
2. "Copy as new furniture" and paste, now we have vertical roof with window
3. "Change furniture" -> rotate around X or Y to ajust needed angle

Now I thing it would be more easy to make roofs not from boxes and triangles, but from walls.

Trianle hole for complex roof forms is here http://www.sweethome3d.com/blog/2014/10/09/ho...the_bottom_of_a_wall.html
If you need equilateral triangle just put two of them near, one mirrored
