Re: Niches in a round wall?
Hello svetlana,

this seems to be very easy:

you create 2 walls next to each other.

in the front wall you insert the "arch" at the height you like. the "arch" has to be a "Window/Door"-type.
below the arch you insert the "invisible box" with good dimensions to cut out the lower part of the niche.

look at this example:



hope, i could help, good luck!

Re: Niches in a round wall?
Hi,

so, what about this then? It's a smimilar and even simple approach:



Would have been easier if you mark your needs on that image you shown, lets say, with a red arrow or something wink

macfrog

for the more advanced user: create a smaller curved wall in the size of the niche (cutout) and re-import this as a door/windowto create a real curved cutout.

Re: Niches in a round wall?
Ok.

I tried to create the real curved cutout. for this you need an invisible box which is bended the same way your wall is.

This is not that easy as i thought.
I had to take the piece of wall i want to use for the cutout and export it as new furniture (as usual), but furthermore i had to remove the front part of the resulting object. Not sure if everybody here can do that as well ... sad

anyway, here's the picture:



feel free to give ideas to solve this in an easy way (we need to bend an "invisible box")

Re: Niches in a round wall?
Hoi biggrin

And (finally!) this is the first version but with re-imported front wall with cutouts staying apart from the back wall.
I don't think it can be more easier, but it's still some work...

Re: Niches in a round wall?
Here are the photos i've made to show the results in actual renderings:

first the wooden wall(s):



scnd, the walls with different textures...



Note, the weird appearance of the brick texture is caused by the fact that it was applied to the front wall AFTER being reimported as "furniture". if you apply your texture to the front wall BEFORE exporting to obj/reimporting as furniture, it will look just fine.

Re: Niches in a round wall?
Thank you, very good! Handsomely!!!
Oh, I got confused with the translator ... I do not understand everything ...
you wrote about an invisible box ... where can I get it? I do not have an invisible box in the library!
how you got it?
the rectangle is written «NicheCurvedBack», where did you get it?
