Hello so this issue is quite annoying. I created a curved form through mass so that i can make a complex curved roof using the roof by face tool . It worked multiple times before but when i had to delete the mass in order to make a better roof the roof by face arrow or picker wouldn't highlight the mass at all. The picker works for the wall and topo solid. The mass has a simple geometry i just wonder why it wouldn't pick it this time round yet previous masses were more complex
ROOF BY FACE TOOL NOT PICKING/HIGHLIGHTING MASS
when I tried this, it had to do with how the end conditions were lined up.
if they were off, it wouldn't work.
basically the same shape, but when those end condition's weren't in line, it wouldn't make the roof. i could make it a Wall or Curtain System, but not a Roof.

I already deleted the file.....
I'll remake it though, just for you 😁.

how can you change the heights of those end points
In my simplified version, I just went into an elevation and adjusted them the spline. I assuming you made a series of splines and then selected them to make a solid form. If you make a Reference Plane or Section parallel to each spline,
you can use the Orient to View or Orient to Plane tools to set your view as needed.
The more fluid forms like that do seem to be finicky though. In my second example I had to remake the mass face and I couldn't get a roof to place. It would let me select it, but I got an error when it tried to make it. I'm sure if I played with it some I cold have gotten it to work.
What is the end product? Is that going to be a solid Roof, a Membrane, Glass, ...?
