Update & Improve Roof Object Tool
Summary: Add Dormer feature
Update the object to be editable like a aecSpace
Add accessible properties for (for PSD), Length (Perimeter) along Roof Line and Eave, Areas on plan view & slope.
Length of gabled ,hip and ridges.
Ability to add holes
Add Edge styles
Auto gable or partial gable functions
Add ability to autoframe and then edit.
Able to get 2 RO's to interact (as in a sub-frame) like you can with MassElementGroups but without having to resort.
Ability to assign a structural element to attach to a) ridge b) hip c) gable end.
Description: Switch back on the Dormer functions contained within the code.
Update the object to
-be able to add vertices (as per Space object)
Add accessible properties for (for PSD)
-Length (Perimeter) along Roof Line and Eave line.
-Area on flat (plan view). Area (true) on slope.
Length of any gabled portion (90d slope edges)
Length of hips (sloping) and ridges (flat).
Ability to add holes (without resorting to MassElementGroups)
----These next items seem to mean exposing the RO to interaction / assignment of structural objects.
Edge styles - gutter/fascia/eave, gable end, infil, with controllable cleanups (auto/Override)
Auto gable or partial gable functions
Add ability to autoframe.
Ability to assign a structural element to attach to a) ridge b) hip c) gable end.
Able to get 2 RO's to interact (as in a sub-object) like you can with MassElementGroups but without having to resort to MEG so that in the case of complex roof shapes there can be separate objects but with intelligent interaction.
Roof Object styles.
