Objective about OBJECTIVE

I am really liking this Objective product from Encina.

Thinks like i think.

And good service from Ralph, too.

This is the result of my quonset hut tests. They ran off, so to speak.

If one could only find a way to build it.......

I know what you mean - how does stuff like this fit in to Archicad.....

I always felt that those fancy 3D prototyping machines were wasted on "little sticks" architecture, in view of what artists are doing with them.

Ever thought about a career in Sci Fi cinematics Dwight? Looks like a good start!!

You did this with Objective or with love of complex profiler? What do you think of the two against each other?

Complex profiles are created within the limited tool they inhabit:

Walls only extrude in straight or curved laterals.
Beams extrude in straight or obliquely-tilted laterals - tilt distorts section.
Columns extrude in straight or obliquely-tilted verticals- tilt distorts section.

With the Objective tool those same profiles can be bent rotated and altered beyond how our existing tools function.

The quonset hut is a good example. To achieve a corrugated arch using a custom profile, you could:

-- Make a custom profile curved wall, then view it in 3D from the side and save it as a GDL object, placing it in the plan to achieve the arch. Hard to edit.

-- use profiler with similar steps. Hard to edit.

-- use Cadimage's tool.

-- use Objective to make a parametric objects that can be humped up to the correct arch without distorting the section. See the attachment and the next one.

The glass examples I previously attached were half-pipe sections stretched, arched and radically offset so far that they wound back on themselves.

And here is the same section, elevated half as much - note that the section stays the same.

Dwight I am happy you found MY dream, and the good thing is we do not have to share it. We have our own, selfish ha?

All MY dreams are made of chrome.

AND in the new millennium, they also appear to have a contrasting sidebar that the dealer wants a prince's ransom to fix.

I just saw one of these on the street the other day - even better looking in person...

I'm sold. Been wanting it for a while and just went to the site to purchase but no luck. No Mactel version yet.

Sigh......

Just click on the grey apple for the version you want.

Thanks Thomas. For some reason I thought it was "greyed out"....

Not to be confused with the kind of worry associated with going out on a date when elderly: "Grey doubt"

Almost parked on top of one the other day ... and it was the only clean car in the street (hint: the rainy muddy week)
