When working with roofs, you can go a step further and make additional changes in the properties menu. XactRemodel Studio allows you to quickly access these properties to adjust the roof to your specifications.
Accessing the Properties Menu
The properties menu can only be accessed by first clicking on a roof name, which will then show the Properties Menu icon.
