    Something new - tried it out and works fine but was not able to re-space the louvers - and Window>louvers (library) can not be re-spaced either - well, now there are at least two choices.

    I was able to make one using the "floating dormer[eyebrow]" tool (not the greatest but passable. The problem is, it's not able to be blocked and saved in library. Also there is no control on material for the top (roof) part of it. It can't be this difficult to find a roof vent to store in library. Would anyone have one to share? I suspect most of the time we don't need them as we can use gable venting and eve venting, but I need them on this project. Thanks so much.
