To Add a Gable to the Roof Line of a Curtain Wall

Use this procedure to add a gable to the roof line of a curtain wall. You can also add a gable on the Roof/Floor Line worksheet on the Properties palette.

Note: This option is available only if the roof line has not been edited. After the roof line changes, you cannot add a gable using this option.

1. Select the curtain wall, and click Curtain Wall tab Modify panel Roof/Floor Line drop-down Edit In Place. A temporary profile is created for you to edit the geometry of the Roof line.
2. Click Edit In Place tab Profile panel Add Gable . If Add Gable cannot be selected, the roof line was previously edited.
