How it works

  1. Point at a roof's slope: the preview shows the dormer's roof where it would go. Click where the middle of its front goes, or type it as x,y. Choose the dormer first with Kind on the command line. A Zwerchhaus goes onto the outer face of the wall under the eave nearest the click, within 1 m of it.

Options

Set on the command line while the tool runs; each starts with the value shown, and what you set is kept for the rest of the session.
