Title: Cladding and windows cut out
Post by: smckenzie on November 02, 2023, 04:25:15 pm

Total newbie here.

I have cladding on a wall but the windows are not fully cut out. I've tried reversing the window splines, changing hierarchy mode and resetting xform.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

I would suggest using the Realign button (Base Objects > Properties > Realign) to see if that helps. If that doesn't fix it, if possible, please feel free to send us (https://forum.itoosoft.com/faq/how-to-send-a-file-to-itoo-software/) your scene (ideally simplified and containing just this problematic object(s)). Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Hi,

Thank you for providing the scene. Switching the Hierarchy Mode parameter to 3 within the Cladding macro does the trick. Please find attached the modified version of your scene (231103_cladding_iToo.max).

Best regards,

That doesn't make any sense. It's on 3 by default and didn't work but it does when the geo is separated into a separate file.

You can see on the attached screenshot it's not working (with the main model).

Ok, so I got this to work. Basically have to reverse each window spline and then realign the base object.
