epodcast203 – Roof Face Framing
Vectorworks has a Roof Framing command that is designed to create framing members for a roof (which I covered some time ago). You can also use this to create framing for roof faces.

thanks for this but now i am curiouse how the shrek we learn about the commands adjustment to get the rafters to fit eveytime on the first run….
