Easiest way to create one panel with RailClone. Then create another RailClone where You combine previously created panels 2 or 3 times.

We are developing future version of RailClone that will make similar styles easier to create and control.

But, how to ramdome the panel position in the frame window?
I tryed to create this using the metod showed in this TUTORIAL: Modelling parameterised windows with RailClone in 3ds Max (advanced).
The difficult is the diferent frames position in X and Y, because each its is independent.

In fact, i created one railclone parametrizing windows, bus its not satisfatory to me, because the stretch in the Array AS > Default deform the painels in lenght.

Rokas,

Any details (and timeframe) about the upcoming Railclone changes ? I want to improve my windows system, i'll wait if the improvements greatly simplify the process.
