Sash openings Hi Help needed to figure out how to show window openings on the 2d window, something like this :-  After reading OKH's very thorough explanation i am none the wiser, does anyone know of an idiots guide or video. I have created a range of 5 double glazed windows and 10 doors, interior, exterior and patio which i would like to share but would prefer to do so with the sash openings showing.  Hopefully Mike |

Re: Sash openings Good luck. Sash windows would be a welcome addition and useful in many regions where they are common. Looking forward to seeing the result. ok PS: When I get the time, I really want to update a guide with separate sections on SVG cutouts, light-sources, hinges, softening/shrinking models, planIcons glass properties, and so on. But as SH3D has evolved with lots of extra possibilities, there are quite a few features worthy of attention. ok |

Re: Sash openings HI ok good to see you back, hope all is well. So far.... managed to create a library file and set it so sh3d can use it, well pleased at accomplishing that alone, but when trying to figure out sash x and y i realised that all my windows and doors swing to the left not the right, if you'll pardon the pun. I went to my library entries to mirror them and found that they are no longer modifiable, not italics either, do i need to re-import them mirrored, or create another sh3f, also, double openings, left and right....jeez. As for actual sash windows mate, i have not made one but as you mention it i will. The windows and doors are probably too complicated to be modified to "open", too many parts, especially the double glazed units. Mike |

Re: Sash openings Any chance someone could post examples (extracts) of the properties for a double opening window. thx Mike |

Re: Sash openings Right, forget all that, i give up, 8 hrs of my life wasted and i will have to recreate the sh3d file yet again as it has disappeared yet again, with no exaggeration this is about the millionth time.  . As for creating a Sash window.....   It is double glazed and no light weight at 1152 Mike |

Re: Sash openings Sorry Mike for not answering earlier. If you have two sashes, you have to cite a pair of values in doorOrWindowSash... properties like in this example posted by okh or some double windows available in the default library. doorOrWindowSashXAxis#15=2 130---------------------------------------- Emmanuel Puybaret, Sweet Home 3D creator |

Re: Sash openings No worries mate, i had a feeling this would be beyond my pea brain. sh3f is again sorted, if i send it to you could you please put the license details in or is that not where it goes |

Re: Sash openings First - windows look great! As for "..8 hrs of my life wasted..." I am no so sure. If I were to count that way, I would have given up on SH3D long ago. Sometimes, you can spend hours trying to figure out little details without getting it right. I have countless examples. Not only SH3D by the way, it could be building a bunk / cupboard bed (in real life) as I am doing this week-end, or my own metier for that matter... But trying and failing - even when overwhelmed by the latter - is never a waste of time. And again - the windows look absolutely perfekt! ok |
