Trapezoide Niche Object

Anonymous

I am trying to create a Niche Object in ArchiCAD with the sides folding back. As the base object to modify the script I would use the niche object in ArchiCAD Fig01.
Can anybody help me with the script to get something similar done as shown in Fig.02

Any help is greatly appreciated. Many Thanks

I am glad you have a method to get things to work for you. I have the niche object on my list to fix. Now, I just need to get some time.

GSNA ,

Here is an update to the niche object. While still not perfected it does resolve a number of the larger issues with the original, including the "header" that appeared with the wall thickness not matched. I also added the ability to allow the niche to exist within the wall completely, provided that the niche wall thickness and depth is not set to be thicker than the wall thickness.
