What would be the best way to arrange tiles on sloped angled roofs?
I have a tile type and want to build a component system that when I feed the surface as brep, I want to populate the tiles on the roofs…
As an architect that’s definitely something, we do sometimes and would love to automate for project with multiple buildings.. So I can simply select the roofs, and tiles can populate automatically..

Tried with array component but couldn’t find a simple solution for the boundy and angle… Im sure there are simple ways to do this right?

Any simple suggestions or solutions for this?

I’m not using Panelling Tools so I cannot really help you. Mayybe one thing. When you hover on ULength or VLength, what does the popup say?
