Showing Awning Windows opened

[Steve77]

Hi There,

I'm sure this question may have been asked and/or answered at some stage...but is there a way (in chief) of showing awning windows opened in 3D?

I have attcahed an example of what I am meaning.

Any help would be appreciated.

It can be done but takes a bit of work.  You will need to make two custom window symbols and that will allow you to have separate symbols for the sash and frame and then you can use the symbol dbx to rotate the sash symbol.

not yet maybe in the next version but you can create your own symbols to do it but it's an advance method

I just did this one in a couple of minutes using a Pass Through for the frame and hole in the wall.

I then used a mirror from the library for the opening sash - changed the materials and rotated it.

very nice Glen but does it show up in the materials list and schedules?

Perry,

Easy to exclude the mirror (sash) from Ml and schedules.

The pass through will come through the ML and schedules as a window.

You can customise description, label, etc as you need.
