Hi Wolfgang,
I followed your re-working using the command line ok and think in general it is excellent. However I am not sure about constructing the beams with the mouse. I think it is necessary to click on 4 points, not 3, before closing the beam outline. As you suggest it is not really necessary to be precise about point placement but it is useful to do so, and, using the mouse does make it difficult to construct the beams with parallel sides but it does give the person using the exercise some practice at using the mouse.
I also interspersed extending the beams to meet the top of the frame using the mouse to drag the top two corners after the outline was created and using Snap on Entity to make the points attach to the top of the frame




Otherwise I think the additions you made are fine.
