    ...just started playing with DC's and I must admit... cool, really cool. Exactly what I missed in SU so much before. There ist still a lot to learn about the functionality. Today I would just like to share my very first component, a parametric, scalable window segment that makes it easy to create a lot of different rectangular windows and glass-fronts by tweaking only one generic dynamic component to get the needed instances/component copies.

    This version is for fixed glazing/panels only. A version for casements with on-click window-opens-functionality is in progresss.

      Hey, I just downloaded and checked it out. Thats really great! Good job on the window. Good luck adding some onclick functionality to it. Make sure to post it back here when you get it working!

        Chris,

        I did not see your reply earlier, sorry.

        Am working on a complete family/system of window DCs that work together. Learned a lot about how to tweak DCs (if I am not wrong even something that is not documented in the DC reference) ...and feel there is more under the hood...

        And yes... there will be a lot of OnClick - functionality. Even some conditional OnClick-behaviour.... not only for smart presentation but for OnClick-configuration of some construction-related properties.

        Finally I will have to write a small pdf documentation on how tu use those components as there will be a bunch of configuration parameters that influence each other.

        Cheers,
        Franziska

        btw... looking at my first DC posted here two weeks later now.... I feel it was a first but somewhat rudimental approach of what I think I will be going to get to.
