JKEdmo Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Good morning, I'm drawing up an as-built plan for an office tenant improvement. Until now I've only been doing residential with Chief... I need to model existing radiator enclosures up against an exterior curtain wall: Just curious how one would approach this. Base cabinet? 3D solid? Thanks again, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution robdyck Posted August 21, 2023 Solution Share Posted August 21, 2023 Hey Jim, I'd suggest using a base cabinet. I'd also suggest making a copy of a register symbol and then setting it to insert into a countertop. For accuracy and width, you may want to place several registers and convert them all into a single fixture that can be placed into a countertop / cabinet. Alternatively, you can just place one register into a cabinet top and adjust the cabinet width to match the register width. Then copy it 6 times to create the appearance of 12 vents. Use a matching cabinet with the register removed to serve as the fillers at the ends and intermediate portions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started with that and got pretty good results. At least for government work. Do you happen to know how to get vertical reveals between each unit to show up?

robdyck Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Make sure the 'filler' unit is about 1/8" narrower or about 1/16" shallower. Go to General cabinet defaults / turn off automatic fillers. This may create other hassles. There may be other ways...that's what I would do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
