Help with PV*Sol on half hipped roof

[jerriais]

Hi,

Just spent ages setting up the geometry for a half hipped roof in the 3D model and now found I can't add any panels to the lower half of the roof, only onto Attic Storey 2!
Anybody come across this before?

Could just do it as a regular roof and block off the corner but then what is the point of the software having the half hipped roof option?

OK, now I've clicked on the Eaves arrow and got to fill the lower half of the roof but can't use the roof as one area so can't fit maximum panels on there.

what software is this then?

Yep, it's definitely an issue with the software that I've yet to solve. Also, it won't allow you to set up the panels on the different roof areas on to a single inverter.

If you do solve it, please let us know
