Adding a Dormer Window

To add a dormer window, drag it from the Dormers category in the Building Elements section of the object library and drop onto the roof. Once the dormer is in the 3D View, move the dormer around to install it properly.

To remove a dormer, select it in the Project Tree and press the Delete key.

You can replace the default window with another window or opening of your choice.

All parts of dormers (except for windows or openings) are the same segments used to create roofs. To change the configuration of a dormer, you should use tools from the Object Properties tab of the Inspector. Here you can set the dormer width and change the angles of its segments.

It is possible to change the dormer type using the same technique as described in the Modifying the Style of a Roof section.

You can save modified dormers to the object library.
