# New Dormer

The "New Dormer" function allows you to place a new dormer on a previously selected roof surface. If you selected the "Dormer -- Place" function in the model area "Roof Layout", the program will switch directly to the dormer module after choosing the main roof surface and automatically start the "New Dormer" function. However, you can call the "New Dormer" function at any time once you are in the dormer module. This enables placing a new dormer on the current main roof surface.

After selecting the function, the dialog box for choosing the dormer type opens first. The available dormer types are accompanied by images. After selecting the dormer type, the dialog box for choosing a template opens automatically. The template applies all values from the dormer saved as the template. When you have chosen a template and close the dialog box with "OK", the layout dialog of the corresponding dormer type opens automatically. The values from the dormer saved as the template are displayed and can be modified or accepted.
