The use of biarc is very important in architecture. As I know, in most cases it's biarcs instead of spline.
Podolsky wrote:The thing is that Curtain Wall Tool does the job. So why do I need something else. But I understand your point. It is difficult for a new user discover that they can do wall framing with a Curtain Wall Tool. That is when I see that Param-o could have a much bigger role in AC if it would become an Assembling Tool for all 2d and 3d AC elements. Including Walls, Slabs, Roofs, Objects, Lines, Fills, etc.
I also want to say, that I don't think that to use curtain wall for something else apart of curtain wall -

Can someone at Graphisoft find and post the video they made when the CW tool was first released.

p.s.: It would be really nice if SinceV6 could send us a simple object with a "raw/clean" working version of his 3d Polyline that we could start to work.

They are password protected. (At leas the one I was testing).

Braza wrote:A bit off topic, but related... This states one of the things I hate and love about AC. I have always understood the flexibility, and perhaps efficiency, of having a 3D shape that can be displayed as something entirely different in 2D. But this also makes it sometimes feel like floor plans are disconnected from the model, instead of being derived from the 3D geometry of elements, even for its own native tools. Display order should only exist for 2D elements, not 3D elements or their projections.
mass{2} command for 3d and a poly2_b{5} for 2d
