How to get the depth of a groove in a curtain wall?

LeeJaeYoung — Fri, 23 Jun 2023 06:05:30 GMT

I am studying cw window 26.
The left side is cw window 26.
I am not understanding how to get the groove depth value.
Which part should I study?

ADD2 0,0.1 POLY2 4,7, 0,-FrameThk/2, A,-FrameThk/2, A,FrameThk/2, 0,FrameThk/2

1. It seems to me that this A has an ac_clampdepth value.
There is an ac_clampdepth value in frames, but it's hard to understand how to get that value in windows because it's so complicated.

I want to know how to get ac_clampdepth value.

2. It's too complicated, so I just set the center of the window to ADD2 A/2,0 in the 2D script, but is there any problem doing this?

ADD2 0,0.1 add2 A / 2, 0 HA = windowWidth /2 POLY2 4,7, -HA,-FrameThk/2, HA,-FrameThk/2, HA, FrameThk/2, -HA, FrameThk/2

I found this.
I couldn't find the variable in CW window 26 when I searched for it in ui_CWWindow_m.

I want to know the variable values of these pens.

The clues I've found are here.

_idxTab = 300

iUiID_FloorPlanSection = _idxTab
iParID_FloorPlanSection = iUiID_Root : _idxTab = _idxTab + 1

Hi,

Generally these names are the same as the parameter's description. You can search for it in the GDL editor parameter list, or browse them in Schedules / Scheme settings / Fields / Add Fields / Library Part Parameters:

https://gdl.graphisoft.com/gdl_other_docs/how-to-make-a-curtain-wall-panel discusses clamp sizes and panel coordinates.

Parameter A depends on ac_aSizeIsWithClamp, you need to set it to use the simplification.
