Editing Roof Objects

Once a roof object has been created, there are multiple ways to edit it:

    Change roof edge shapes (such as hip or gable) using the Selection tool and the Edit Roof Settings dialog box.

    Create cutouts in the roof using the Clip tool or Clip Surface command.

    Reshape the roof object using the Reshape tool.

    Add an accessory: attic, soffit, or fascia (Vectorworks Architect required)

Additionally, the roof object parameters can be edited from the Object Info palette. Wall settings from the Object Info palette apply to all gable or Dutch hip walls in the roof; to adjust each gable wall individually, use the Edit Roof Settings dialog box.
