Hi, well, I just built a square 24 x 24 walls. Then I put my first roof on. It's gray. even though I do have it set on realistic.
You know the tin roofs that is on the farm houses? I'd like to make it look like that.

Thanks, I read those. Then I clicked on my roof, materials, Roofing-Metal Standing Seam, Render Appearance tab, replace, Roofing>>
Then I see the list of shigles, spanish tiles etc. But I don't see the tin roof I want. Is there a way to make that pattern and put it there?

ok, I give. I have tried.
I opened profile Family template. Drew the drawing (profile) exactley liked the picture and saved. then I opened up Structural Framing - Beams and Braces.rft. I loaded the profile. It shows up in the project browser under families, profiles.
Next I deleted the rectangular that was provided. then drew a rectangular the size of the profile and extrued it. The I clicked sweep. under the sweep, the profile drop down menu is empty. What do I do next?
