    Flat roofs in Suite 6

    Greetings all!

    I am trying to create a section of my house with a flat roof. Following the Flat Roof and Parapet tip in the Tech Support Help Database leaves me with discontinuous walls, since the invisible wall overlaps with the platform thickness, leaving a hole.

    Also, flat roofs, covered with roof felt, tend to overlap the wall edge. Has anbody been able to achieve this successfully?

    Just for sake of clarity, I have a porch with a flat roof at ground level and two stories above the rest of the ground floor so changing floor defaults doesn't work either.

    Thanks for your help!

    When you have different platform heights like this separated with invisible walls in the Suite version you will see a gap under the upper platform. In the pro version we would just put a normal wall in and edit it in cross section to cover the step. In Suite you might try using a soffit and modifying it to cover the open edge then change the materials to show what you want.
