    Curved eaves

    I think that this is somewhat cool, and also a sure sign of having too much time on my hands.

    It's possible to create a curved edge on a roof line, or hole in roof using solid subtract. Once the curve is created it can be further edited as I have shown in the final screen shot.

    I think the main use for this will be the manual creation or editing of roofs adjacent to curved walls. I was playing with a turret earlier today and found that I could get a very nice curved roof edge coming into the the turret wall.

    Chief will automatically generate a segmented edge approximating the curve; but the above method generates a true radius.
