Door with Profilemanager

Hi there!

 

I'd like to point your attention to my new gdl-development using the profile-manager-profiles for door-Library-parts.  My goal is, to get out the most from very few user-actions. 

 

For me - the only 2 variables for a Door should be the egress-measures. The rest should automaticly follow.

Then - using profiles of course - i have to select some and as next - i thought - it would be beneficial to select Arc-Forms for the "above"-geometry. All this is now functional.

I also thought, it would be a good idea to "see" whats happening, when pulling on an editable hotspot and so, i implemented the visual construction-methodes when a hohtspot is drawn.  As construction-methodes for the curves, i used the arc-forms from the german wikipedia.  https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogen_(Architektur)

I would have been impressed by a trapezoid door with profiles, that is awesome!!!

Yes, very impressive to automate all those different curves.

Very nice! I need to dig a little more into GDL on how to call a "Complex Profile." This has been something I have wanted to do for a while now. I understand the basics of GDL but need to learn more.

Thanks,

@Red Open up param-o place a profile, save the object and then open the code. That will shed some light on the coding process.
