Buildings in 3D on a hill, based on DTM values

Hello

 

I have a shapefile that contains a lot of polygons of buildings. I have information about the height of the building, but also the elevation of the base and roof (DTM) is present within the attribute table. Nowadays I use 'Extruder' to make a 3D model of my data (taking the height of the building as height), but that does not show the elevation differences of the bases of buildings. Is it possible to also take into account the elevation differences (so the base of the building differs)?

 

Thank you

You should be able to use a 3d forcer to raise your base level to the correct elevation before extruding
