I'm attempting a roof estimate. I created a 3d face model of the roof planes. How can I calculate the area each plane (3d face)? Using the area tool and selecting the corners of the face gives inconsistent results.

I have applied shrink wrap to a 3d face and it creates a polyline around it with the area showing up in the properties palette. Anybody see a problem with this method?
That may work. Why not just create a Property Set Definition that applies to 3D Faces and add an Automatic Property using the Area source. You could then create a schedule to list all of the areas and generate a total, if desired.
