Rotate and move whole RC object in spline
« on: September 04, 2018, 03:06:28 PM »
Hi,

I have this problem often. Make a rectangle and apply RC on it with some style, but RC rotated wrong. Or its aligned to bottom line and I want to move RC little bit. Is there a way how to do that?

In Floor Generator plugin its really easy to do that. Is there some way please?

Thank you.

You can use expand and Z rotation.

Sometimes You will need to add transform operator also.

But in complex style, where I have to put it? I will then put it everywhere? Its to complex for just that simple operation I think.

It is just another transform operation. Depends on the style. Please attach a style which gives You trouble and we will try to help You.

For example Plank Cladding 1 or Cathedral Pantile in Rufing section.

Ok, thank you.

And what about moving whole style in rectangle in X or Y please?

Sure,
add transform operators, and increase Clipping Area Expand option so mesh is bigger than just clipping area, (not that hard- took about a minute):





Hope that helps

I am sorry, but I am not sure what you do here for move in X and Y.


And now I have a problem with a roof style on nonrectangular shape. There is a verge on one side, but its little bit sliced by a spline on that side. And its very hard to move points of spline to exact position so verge is not cropped.

Thank you and sorry for problems.

Ok, thank you, I will look at it.

And please, is there something I can do to disable slice of verge?

Thank you again.

You can adjust this property in segment settings:
