rectangular zone?

Anonymous — Tue, 20 Aug 2013 14:04:34 GMT

Hello:

It seems like a simple thing but i just cant find the geometrical rectangular method for making a rectangular zone!.

I just have to use the polygonal option to make manually the 4 sides of the rectangle?, how can i do it?.

Thanks:)

You have it right. Typically you will magic wand the zone into a space. If you need something else, expect multiple clicks (one for each corner)

You can find the zone polygon options in the info box.
see attached screen shot.

Thanks, i ended up first using a fill or a slab and then applying a zone inside of that with the magic wand. Did a little research and it seems archicad 17 fixed that aspect.

Thanks, i can find the polygon option and use it slabs, fills, roofs or any other element, but when i choose to do zones, that options just isnt there.

Seems archicad 16 doesnt have it.

Apologies, I didn't read your signature, only available since AC17.
