Well, here it is! ;)
I had a look at Goggalor's Mansard roofs (here) and checked the OBJD in S3PE, seems that categorizing them as large objects does the trick, they are now visible in neighborhood view.
In this package the mansard roof pieces, the tower and (I think, I'll double check and update) the deco curved stairs are not catalogued under object type, but in outdoors/lawn ornaments. Also the spider webs, chandelier chain and shutters should now stay after move/eviction.
The only little issue I found is that when first loading the game the objects were visible even when playing a lower floor, blocking the view, but it seems that just removing them and replacing them fixes this, so let's say this is kind of "testers wanted", please report if you have any trouble. In any case I'd recommend deleting the compositorCache file.

Baa! Thanks Alex!
As far as testing, I didn't see any issues myself, and to be honest I don't think having to replace them is an issue ( an inconvenience that's worth it, yes.).
vorpal:
I fear that this problem will persist, namely that these roof decorations will not fade when going down a floor. Replacing them in Buy Mode will only fix it for the current session. I think it's the same with the fake skyscraper roofs that came with Roaring Heights. They are visible from map view but don't fade when you zoom into the lot in Live or Buy/Build Mode.
Someone at simlogical is working at solving the same problem: http://www.den.simlogical.com/denforum/index.php?PHPSESSID=gcrhmrh2h6cuqqtfjo0mlloo12&topic=3096.0

Thank for the info! I'll check Simlogical's thread see if I can figure it out, I'm not much of a modder, I'm afraid... As far as I can see in my game it's kind of random, sometimes they don't fade out when I zoom but sometimes they do... hmmm... ???
That said I noticed that the spire and dormer from the Grim mansion/graveyard lot has the same problem, off to fix it! :)

Modified the roof pieces in the Mother Russia set, and the dormer and spire in the Grim's Ghasty Manor (orwhateveritscalled) set. Now visible in neighborhood view, and not catalogued under buy>deco, only in outdoors>roof decor or lawn ornaments.
Both sets are complete and include the clothing.

GRIM'S MANOR

About the objects not fading out in zoom when playing on a lower floor... if I figure how to fix it I'll update, as for now I found that just double-clicking on them with the hand tool in build/buy mode works, a bit of a drag, buy anyway...
:P
