Hi, I have a Portico with a one way sloping roof that is split level at the steps. I want to connect the two roofs but I'm not sure how to do it. I need help. Please see attachment.

Thanks in advance.

Edit:
1. Still using R9.0
2. All roofs have same slope.

How about just create a flat roof in plan then edit vertex elevation to match each corner elevation of the roof by using the new modify sub-elements tool.

Use a slope arrow on your roof element and specify the height.

Use a slope arrow on your roof element and specify the height.but the roof is sloping in two directions as indicated in the posted image and we also don't know whether the 2nd and 3rd roof where the roof to be attached to have the same slopes. If the 2nd and 3rd roof have the same slope it could probably be done using slope arrow but you need to set up an inclined workplane that will match with the side slopes of the 2nd and 3rd roof.

I still think the new modify sub-elements tool is the best way for this kind of situation much more easier to handle.

Just my two cents
