Roof Shingle Extend

[mgagnonbl]

I'

I'm fairly new at this and am trying to learn some features in my spare time. I am looking at a section cut through a house i'm working on and am zoomed into the roof edge which is the basic roof (wood rafter 8" - asphalt shingle - insulated. I'm trying to figure out how to extend the asphalt material over my fascia board. I go into edit mode and it wants me to pick a view to edit from. I wont be able to see this in roof plan view. I've tried finding a solution online but no luck. It seems like it should be easy enough. Thanks for any help.

You can do this by altering the cut profile of the roof edge.  http://help.autodesk.com/view/RVT/2015/ENU/?guid=GUID-BE871A38-C99F-4D07-93B5-576CEBA0E68D

This will not change the model geometry but it will be correct in the section/detail view you are showing it.

If you wan tthe model to show this condition, you would needt o model the shingles as a seperate roof with a slightly larger over hang than the roof below.

I like the second idea for now only because I'm trying to get experience modeling something. The sectional detail can be altered any time I believe? So for now there is no way to edit that assembly and tell it to say overhang the sheathing by say 1 1/2" or so? I'm going to give the shingle modeling a try. This is awesome. Thanks for your suggestions.
