Re: Area calculation and auto dimensions for 2D Saniel, Thank you for the new version of the plug-in. I tested it using the same two files that I attached to my previous post. By the way, those files were created using a beta version of SH3D v4.0. My tests today were done using the installed version 4.0. I notice the following problems: - Round walls don't get dimensioned. - When dimensioning vertical walls, one dimension is "upside down". It should be rotated 180 degrees, so that the text is legible from the same point of view. - Often dimensions are too close and one will be on top of another one. - When a diagonal wall is touched by a horizontal wall (see left example in the Test dimensions file), and you want to add a dimension to the diagonal wall, the horizontal wall also gets a dimension. - It is not possible to add dimensions on more than one level. To overcome some problems, I think it would be useful to add a second button to delete dimensions, as you already suggested. That way you can selectively add or delete the dimensions of the highlighted walls. Again I suggest a different approach to this plug-in. Imagine that you draw a large box around your design. Outside the box come the largest (or exterior) dimensions of the selected walls, inside the box come the smallest (or interior) dimensions of the selected walls. It should be possible to automatically calculate the size of that box. Hans ---------------------------------------- Hans new website - under constuction hansdirkse.info |
