Replacing Roof Styles from the Object Info Palette

Roof styles applied to existing roofs can be replaced with a different roof style.

A roof replacement situation may also occur if pasting a styled roof from another file.

To replace a roof style:

1. Select one or more roofs.

2. From the Object Info palette, select Replace from the Style list.

The Roof Replacement dialog box opens.

Click to show/hide the parameters.

Parameter	Description
Roof style list	From the list, select the roof style that will replace the current style
Previews	The left preview shows the current roof style, and the right preview shows the replacement roof style selected in the roof style list. Preview roofs are drawn from top to bottom, so the top of the preview indicates the top part of the roof as it will be drawn. The red line indicates the datum component of each roof style; replacement is aligned to the datum.
Replacement options	Select whether to replace the current settings for class designations, texture assignments (Renderworks required for textures), Energos energy analysis data, and IFC data with those of the new roof

If roofs with different roof styles were selected for replacement, the current roof preview is blank and components do not display.

3. Click OK to replace the roof style of the selected roof.
