ROOF RIDGE VARIABLE

[captainbunsaver]

Okay, this one has me completely stumped. On the pdf, the purple lines represent the ridge. Notice that it is both curved and displaced.
I have tried creating this roof by every method I can think of, but the ridge always mismatches in elevation from front portion to rear (at the ridge is the problem).
I have used massing/voids, sweep blends, solid blends, roof by extrusion with plan cuts, ....

Any takers?

something roughly like this?

and actually, I would make it a mass and do roof by face, not an in place family like I did...

you can also use shape editing tools, but it's a little harder since you have to know the heights of each point.

Can you please post a screen cap of the roof in a "edit" mode. I tried to re-create you're roof and it works fine here.

SFAUST,
Very close to what I need! I will monkey with it a bit later on today, and report back.

Thanks
