Instant doors etc.

[yasatsuna]

I've made a floor plan and I did the walls first and my next step is putting doors

 

are there any commands that I can use to put doors instantly aside from copy pasting manually made walls?

 

because if i copy paste its placement is not accurate

 

and if i do it manually it takes alot of time using line and tr :/

 

additional::

 

what is the best shader for walls??

 

 

thanks

Are you looking for a lisp routine that would insert the door into your wall breaking the the existing lines to facilitate the insertion?

yasatsuna,

 

I'd use a solid fill hatch for your walls. That's how I've seen them done. But, I could be wrong. Make a single door a block and then flip it for the copy and just adjust your gaps if you have any. I work on drawings for glass storefronts all the time.

back to the topic

 

Like Remark are you looking for something that will put doors & windows in automaticly ? If so the answer is yes it exists it cuts the walls etc as a lisp program. If your real serious then you would look at Autocad Architecture which has these features built in plus heaps more.

 

If your a student etc then trim insert a block and change its x y scales to suit your walls. Regrading accuracy it should be accurate if you draft it correct.

 

Also are you working in 2D or 3D ? Or plan and elevations (=2D)
