!Restored: Complex Profile to include section view

Anonymous
Not applicable
Add paramaters to the Complex profiler to allow user to set the section view of the wall seperate from the floor plan view. This would drastically increase the production of Construction documents and keep the wall sections linked to the model.

The Complex Profile is the section view. Do you mean including a 2D (plan) symbol? Or are you referring specifically to Columns?

The initial setup of the Complex (Wall) Profiler represents the same in plan view and section view. Use the general information as is for plan view(simple block/fill pattern for brick) . Add more details to the section view....individual bricks/blocks etc...

This is not true -- it is the section by which the associated wall/beam/column is extruded. I guess what you're referring to is additional information to be provided in section -- you could make the same case for Composites.

For composites, that's true. Not for Profiles. You can add as much detail as you want.

True -- but you may get some unexpected results in 3D

I was actually thinking of composites...If Graphisoft could re-write the Composite windows pallete to incoorporate a section view and a floor plan view. similar to the parametric objects showing a stack of brick.

Ah, well, now you may get some votes -- this (or a version of) has been a long standing wish...
