Title: Creating roofs a breeze
Post by: Burgo on September 19, 2012, 07:15:26 PM
I found mastering TFP was somewhat time consuming but the rewards are worth the effort, so if anyone is experiencing frustration during the learning process, I say, hang in. The roof tools are superb and a breeze to use once mastered. In the attached image the roof was created in less then 10 minutes. In Turbocad it would have taken hours.

Garry, still playing around with the design, but at this stage my client is quite happy with overall appearance. Should look better when I add some landscaping.

Looks great Burgo.

I found that learning (and I still am  :)  , was more of an adventure than a chore. Knowing that you can produce and present to a client is great feeling. Realizing that  you now have the confidence to take on most any project is frosting on the cake.

I so happy that you are enjoying working with TFPlan !!

Keep up the good work.

Jack

Thanks Jack for the positive comments. Now that I have a liking for TFP I guess the next progression will be to Envisioneer which will make it easier to produce working drawings as I find it is a bit of a drag and time consuming producing working drawings in TC. I find that
working between the two programs does not produce the best outcomes particularly when there is a lot of editing to be done.
