1) any ideas on why my wall hole does not show up in 3d? I have scripted a wall hole as:
WALLHOLE 4, 2,
0, 0, 15,
A, 0, 15,
0, B, 15,
A, B, 15
but don't get an opening. See attached image.
WALLHOLE 5, 2, -A/2, 0, 15, A/2, 0, 15, A/2, B, 15, -A/2, B, 15, -A/2, 0, 15It may be a better idea to close the polygon, thus the 5 nodes instead of the 4 (I am not totally sure about this, I just looked at the examples in the GDL guide.)

I was referencing the link from the GDL center, but did not understand the door/window nature of originating from the center of the opening.

David: "5" is not listed in the GDL manual and therefore I assume a risky option. Normal top view would be PROJECT2 3,270,2 is there some trick in using "5" ?
