I'm in the process of building a GDL joist hanger and I've come across a
problem using groups. I'm using 2 simple prisms to create the basic
shape, and using 2 more prisms to cutting out the geometry using the GDL
version of SEOs. This is what my geo...
I have a regular problem with Physically based rendering on my Intel
iMac Pro, where the display will go completely black. This happened in
OSX 13 Ventura in the technology preview. I thought it was a glitch, and
when OSX 15 Sequoia was released I up...
Has anyone ever scripted any graphing or chart objects that can be used
for (say) space type analysis with Schedules? I am working on secondary
school extension and key to the process is analysing use of space to
identify waste or surplus. The princi...
We have a multi-platform environment in my office, using Macs and PCs.
Until Bimcloud (we use the SAAS version) we had a bit of a problem with
library paths between Macs and PCs. Although that is now resolved, we
are moving towards replacing our doma...

one I can't seem to fix. GDL has no IFS or AND/OR/NOT options, so every
condition has to be covered with a separate if statement. I can make
this work - up to a point. More than...
The other option is a curtain wall. That's always reliable and has more
flexibility. However the new AC28 international Library may have
additional objects you didn't have access to previously, chances are
that you may have an option in another widow...
Object attached. It could be improved with better hotspots (particularly
for scaling in 3D) and making the object scaling more consistent between
the 2D and 3D elements. They are kind of okay, but I'm not very good
with hotspots!
How about this? Happy to share the gsm file. It has a 2d representation
(simple shaded circle) and a 3d one. As with all my GDL objects -
modifications/improvements are actively encouraged!
All done and uploaded to BimComponents. Modifications actively
encouraged! I haven't added options for skewed hangers, that would take
quite a lot of my time and there's only so much swearing my colleagues
in the office can tolerate, especially now u...
