- [Instructor] In this video, we'll build the barge boards here that are on the front of the gable roof covering the porch. To locate this point in three-dimensional space, we'll use the photo point tool, which is located right here in the Match Photo dialogue. I'll click that tool, zoom in, and click a point right here at the top of the white area, and it says, "You can use the guideline you just "created in another matched photo scene." And if I orbit, you'll see that we have a guideline that was automatically created. It's not useful yet, because there's just one guideline. The intention of this tool is that you go into a second photo and you do the process again. So I'll click this tool, and click right here at the top of the gable where it crosses that line, just click once right there. And that will create a secondary guideline. And you can see that if you orbit. See now we have two guidelines, and where they intersect is the point that we've located in three-dimensional space…
