Error: Face shouldn't have horizontal ridge at top!

Hi - I am getting an error trying to create a dutch gable roof in sketchup. I select my faces and I am getting this error "Error: Face shouldn't have horizontal ridge at top!" I assume I am missing a step in creating a dutch gable roof, but I cannot find any tutorials or videos that are specific to what I am trying to do. Please help.

example of hip roof parameters

Hi

I have just started using instant roof, and whilst trying to do a simply hip roof, I went thru and have completely mucked up all my roof parameters, when I ask the software to " make roof " all the quantities read 0, roof surface area 0 , bottom roof edge 0, etc and then it doesnt even make a roof, it just extends the walls or box to double the height ???

portuguese translation

Do you have the portuguese plugin?

Just Triangles and Squares

When I run any roof style it now only gives me a blank roof, no detail, trusses, dormers eaves etc. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hip and Rafter Type Options

I am not sure what I am missing, but I do not have the type options for hips and rafters in the dialogue box, as shown in the Roof Parameters tutorial.

I am using the Roof Nui install from the Architecture subscription.

scroll for rafter tails

I can not seem to get the rafter tail design option to work. I've selected numberous scrolled designs for the library, but only a straight rafter is generated.

I can not find on this page "Reativate"
How do I proceed? Please show a "step by step"

Feature requests - Instant Roof

Love the new dormer features in the latest update. Just in case you're getting bored snorkeling or windsurfing, I thought I'd post some feature requests for InstantRoof:

1. The ability to have more than one slope per roof object. I'm guessing you've probably already thought of this, and its easier said than done, but some roofs could leverage multiple roof slopes (say, two). Yes, I know you can model multiple roofs and splice it all together, but this can get pretty painstaking with complex ridges and valleys, especially with all the dependent elements (framing, etc.).
