I am trying to use the variable cross section to represent a building with a pitched roof.
In the CEdit menu I can't type 0 as the top cross sectional area.
If I type 0 m2 through the text editor or a close number like 0.00001 in CEdit, then the model represented in smokeview is different from the real model. The sizes of the rooms are different
