I've built up a few samples to showcase some possible uses for the new dynamic components in SketchUp Pro7. You'll need SU7 (free or pro) to play with these. You'll need Pro7 to make changes or build your own components.
File is here:
www.mikebeganyi.com/webimages/timber/DynShell.skpI've built a 'shell generator'. Right click on the gable building outline and access dynamic component options (all the way at the bottom). In the options dialog you can change pitches, width of building, working point of AWall, etc. etc. This assumes that both pitches make it to the center of the building - and is a quick sketch - but you could build a version that accommodated a different break point.
