...

Rafters are created according to the parameters in the Rafter Design dialog. These parameters are:

Number of RaftersRafter count: The information on how many rafter will be created on the relevant roof surface is entered here. After selecting the option, the raft number rafter count is entered in the box. The program automatically adjusts the rafter spacing according to the entered rafter numbercount.

Rafter spacing: If it is desired wanted to place rafters on the roof surface based on the distance between themrafter, the option is selected. In this case, rafters are created at intervals spacing entered in the information box. The number of rafter is automatically calculated by the program according to the entered intervalspacing.

Remaining distance: It is the distance between the two rafter that are on the middle rafters , or rafters and the roof end, depending on the beginning of the rafter arrangement allignment (starting from the right, left middle, etc.). The user cannot intervene.

SlipShift: If you want it is wanted to shift the raftsrafters, a value is entered here. Considering That the roof canopy looking upwardsis looked up from the eaves, the positive value shifts the rafters merteks to the right and the negative value to the left.

...

The program is informed from where to start the raft rafters placement on the roof surface by selecting one of the Start Left aligned, Middle aligned, Start Right , Start Center, aligned or Start Left and Start Rightright aligned. If the "Start from the middleMiddle aligned" option is selected, the "Place in the middleto mid" option becomes active. If option is marked, a rafter is placed in the center middle of the respective roof surface and other rafter are placed starting from this rafter.

In order for the rafters on the ends to be drawn with an inclinationinclined, sentences starting with "Left side: Skew" and "Right side: Skew" should be completed. The sentence is completed by writing the number of inclined rafters to be drawn inclined to the top of these upper boxes and the slope value to the bottom oneboxes. For example; "2 rafters on the left are inclined by 5 degrees." Accordingly, two rafters on the left side are drawn with a 5 degree slope according to the viewing direction.
