Hello,

        I am trying to create a 28m wide profile of custom orb roof sheeting using a standard profile i dowloaded from steel select. I have spent 2 hours meticously copy the standard profile along the reference plane using reference lines and then trimmimg the overlapped lines. But when i load this profile into the project and try to use it as a fascia host sweep it cant be used. The standard profile works but is 27 metres too short so there is an error with the profile i have created but i dont know how to search for this error. can anyone suggest how i can overcome this problem??

 Thanks

Thanks,

           I was able to create the roof profile for a length of 5.5 metres but beyond that it was too much for my old system with only 1GB of Ram. The roof sheet profile was reasonably complex and curved so instead i've just applied a material.
