Construction orders for capturing roofs

The capture mode of the 3D editor perspective allows to manually define new building geometries. Depending on the building type chosen, HxMap will expect a pre-defined order of vertices to be defined.
If a number is in a bracket it indicates that this vertex will be set automatically if the option “Auto Set Last Point” is marked in the capture function definition list.
