round doors or windows in a round wall ?

[Zechinha]

Hallo to all of you,

Is it possible to edit the arc extent angle-property of windows and doors fot them to fit in a round wall ? If possible, how can I do that?

Thanks for your help

The depth of doors and windows placed on a round wall must be set manually. If needed you may want to add an additional invisible box imported as a door or window, to perform the hole in the round wall (see this example).

Thanks for your quick answer Puybaret. I hope I'not being annoying, but still: could I acchieve that this fixed window also has a round shape to flush with the wall? I mean, it's not only the depth but, like by the walls, the arc-extent-angle of the choosen piece (window or door). Is it actually possible and if yes, where can I edit this property . Do I need an extra program like furniture editor ? Thanks again.

The program isn't able to compute the hole of non rectangular doors and windows in round walls in the current version. The support of this feature would require a lot work for very very little use. You'll have to import your window with some wall parts designed in an other software like Art of Illusion.

Oh, ok. Anyway, the program is really great. Thank you very much & Bye

With a bit of effort - and some model creation - what you ask for is possible. Maybe the windows in this example can be of help. If you can make the windows work with some stretching and fine-tuning, you are welcome to use them (license CC-BY, but I am not fuzzed...)

ok

PS. Sorry, copy of personal model, couldn't be bothered to add window openings etc.

FYI: Sourceforge 295 updated with second example of arched walls with windows.
