AppendRoofEdge

Description

Function AppendRoofEdge creates a new edge in the referenced roof object.

PROCEDURE AppendRoofEdge(
				theRoof            : HANDLE;
				edgePtX,edgePtY    : REAL;
				slopeAngle         : REAL;
				projectionDistance : REAL;
				eaveHeightDistance : REAL);

def vs.AppendRoofEdge(theRoof, edgePt, slopeAngle, projectionDistance, eaveHeightDistance):
    return None

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
theRoof	HANDLE	Handle to roof.
edgePt	REAL	Definition point of roof edge.
slopeAngle	REAL	Slope of roof edge.
projectionDistance	REAL	Eave overhang.
eaveHeightDistance	REAL	Eave height.

Remarks

Vertex is appended to the end of the list of vertices. Vertices define the outline of the roof. Vertices must progress in a counter clock wise direction, when viewed from a top view, otherwise the roof cannot be built.

edgePt: Coordinate point for this edge slope: pitch of this roof edge projection: eave overhang eaveHeight: eave height
