Ringos Posted Wednesday at 01:46 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:46 PM Where is the louvered shutter standard window treatment? In window specifications under shutters and selecting louvered, there is a shutter. Where can one find that as a stand alone shutter? I don't seem to find it in any of the catalogs. I would like to use that on a bay window. When adding shutters to the bay window the shutter only displays straight which at a 45 degree angle goes through the house.

I thought that was it but then when you put them side by side the catalog shutter does not show the louvers the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ringos Posted Wednesday at 02:30 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 02:30 PM Just now, ericepv said: Are you trying to change the direction of the louvers? No. Just took the shutter and placed it on the building next to the other one that is specified as shutter with the window and they look completely different. 13 minutes ago, ericepv said: Bonus Catalogs / Exterior Shutters Thank you.

ericepv Posted Wednesday at 02:38 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 02:38 PM They look the same to me, are you using the same finish on each one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringos Posted Wednesday at 02:52 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 02:52 PM In vector they look like the same finish and I verified that in the materials. In standard view they look different. Also the windowed shutter is 1" louver. But in the stand alone shutter I don't find a louver dimension. 14 minutes ago, ericepv said: Are you trying to change the direction of the louvers?

ericepv Posted Wednesday at 02:59 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 02:59 PM Here's a PBR version. make sure your material properties are the same plus you may want to have the shutter stand proud of the wall by an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringos Posted Wednesday at 03:04 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 03:04 PM Proud of the wall by an inch. Standard View. Louvers are different size. I don't see a louver size setting for the stand alone shutter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericepv Posted Wednesday at 03:07 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:07 PM Are you using the same shutter on the window as the stand alone? (Bonus Catalogs / Exterior Shutters / Louvered Double Shutter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringos Posted Wednesday at 03:16 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 03:16 PM OK I switched to the (Bonus Catalogs / Exterior Shutters / Louvered Double Shutter). They look the same in vector and ray trace but don't show the louvers well in standard. I guess that is the best. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadows don't seem to be on in your Standard View and you might want to play with the sun angle to better highlight the shutters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
