too many roofs

So from what I can tell if you build more than one shell geometry in the
DD wizard you end up with more than one roof.

What is the method for handling this so I ultimately end up with only
one external roof surface. I feel like deleting the extra roof surfaces
is a bad idea.

Not true. See screen 3 of 25 in the DD wizard. Look at the pull down menu.
You will see the option to select no exterior exposure. On same screen look
at pull down menu for floors, etc. Also look at screen 1 of 25 to specify #
of floors. You can call each floor a shell if you want to. Or you can call
your dog or cat Shell.....

Thank you. This was exactly what I was looking for. I didn't realize by
specifying a construction type you create the surface. This offers great
flexibility now.
