I have a structure that needs a series of shed roofs. I have to two heights where the roof meets the walls (but no angle- I'd rather not have to figure it out but can if I have to).... how do I create a simple roof that is like a floor but sloped?  Also, I have some odd shaped windows- such as a triangular window rather than rectangular... how can I create windows of any shape- easily? I have several windows of different shapes and need a quick way to make them... I have absolutely no clue how to do it... can someone please explain it step by step!! if it involves editing a family - i am very UNfamiliar w/ that ... so please do go slow... there is no way I can use pre-made windows because the angles are unique for each window.... any suggestions? Thanks!

For the roofs, you should probably use Roof by Extrusion where the slope of the roof would be defined by the sketch line you would draw between the two plates from a section view. Skim over the help file on roof by extrusion if you've never used it before.

Window shapes aren't going to be that easy. If you can find one that is close in the download center, edit it's family rather than create one from scratch. good luck
