stretching doors/windows

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 10:38:35 GMT

hi guys,
another GDL question im afraid.

i have made a window out of lines and saved it as a 2d object,
however when i stretch it, the frame size also enlarges.
is there a script for just making the window longer and not changing the the actual frame dimensions.

thanks again

You will need to add code to lock the frame size. It is a little more involved than just adding a couple lines of code.

If you want to build a custom Window or Door that you want to be able to control sizing (without relative stretching) you really need to build the object with GDL coding and not just 3D model elements.

You can keep the scripting to a minimum by using symbol fragments.
