FPRISM_ Status Code for curved hill

[KB-at-CWA]

Hi all,

I cannot find or work out the status code that will hide the contour lines of the curved hill on an FPRISM_.

The FPRISM_ is the perfect gdl to make the shape of furniture, but it keeps coming through with lined contours. I know I could just make it from a morph but I would love to be able to put in parameters for this kind of table top in future.

If anyone can let me know what I am missing it would be very much appreciated. I am making this in Archicad 25.

I have the tabletop script below.

Variable Parameters required

"surf_Tab" (Surface)
"det_Lvl" (Integer)

Parameter Script

VALUES{2}  "det_Lvl"  1,  'Low',
2, 'High'

3D Script below

PUT 0.24994, 0, 79,
1.28524, 0, 79,
1.42172, 0.21224, 1079,
1.29411, 0.49208, 79,
1.10268, 0.65632, 1079,
0.65978, 0.78139, 79,
0.04272, 0.4361, 1079,
0.00935, 0.31795, 79,
0.24994, 0, 1079

IF det_Lvl = 1 THEN !<--------------------------------------Low Detail
PRISM_NSP/3, 0.05,
USE (NSP)
ENDIF

IF det_Lvl = 2 THEN !<--------------------------------------High Detail
FPRISM_ surf_Tab, surf_Tab, surf_Tab, surf_Tab,
NSP/3, 0.035, 0, 0.035,
USE (NSP)
MULZ -1
FPRISM_ surf_Tab, surf_Tab, surf_Tab, surf_Tab,
NSP/3, 0.015, 0, 0.015,
GET (NSP)
DEL 1
ENDIF

HPRISM will give you an extra status control that will allow you to control the visibility of the hill edges.

FPRISM does not have that control.

Thanks Barry.

I totally missed HPRISM_

But why does FPRISM_ still exist?

Legacy.

If it was removed, any existing objects using it will stop working.
