Notes
- Any modification of the selected parts will cause this macro to be updated.
- Selected purlins must be facing each other.
- Selected purlins must have the same section depth.
- Both purlin sections must be parallel.
- Roof slopes must have the same pitch.
- When selecting two purlins, the shorter of the two must be selected first.
- When defining the bay you can either pick the rafters (as shown below) or just pick the purlins. If you just pick the purlins, the shortest purlin will define the bay size.
