Of course, there are some minor problems, like - since the roof contains quite a lot extrusions it makes my pc work to the limit when I try to edit it. Still at last I have what I need. Yes, I took the generic model from the family library! Best wishes from Latvia! Hey Edwin,

Are you taking the generic model from family library? Hi Janis,
If you create in-place model, you can attach your wall to the roof. Are you taking the generic model from family library?

Can't find any solution to this. I can make the roof I need from a generic model, but then I can't attach or join the walls to it. Making a generic roof model also does not work, because I can not join an extrusion to the roof... Thanks How can I add a similar profile to a roof? Can’t find any solution to this.

It doesn't work, or probably works on certain condition. Can you email me or upload it somewhere, so I can take a look at your file? Hi Jared,

It is much easier to space everything in the profile family than type in all the dimensions into the table in short - make a large reveal profile for the whole wall - and set it to the top of wall.
