quand je colle la fenĂȘtre dans le mur
Tu la colle bien sur la face extérieure du mur ?

bonjour Didier,
J'epĂšre je peux me faire comprendre.
Oui, je colle bien sur la surface.
Je l'ai essayĂ© une dixaine fois avec des fenĂȘtres du components en avec des fenĂȘtres qui j'ai dessinĂ©hans

Hans,
Send me a SKP example with a component that causes a problem, I'll check it -
Didier,
c'est pour moi la premiere fois que je visite ce Forum.
Comment il faut faire ca, envoyer un example. -
-
Hans,
It works. I suppose you didn't click on the first point again when defining the cutting outline.
-
Hello Didier,
Thanks for your efforts,
Alas, it doesn't work.
I'm sure that I have selected with 5 clicks.
This morning I have tried also the option "" ...by face "
and ...by points. But both methods don,t work.
After selecting one way or the other I have turned the component 90 degrees
and placed it with the move tool in the wall.
Nothing happends ???
I have a lot of plugins but this is the only one with problems.Hans

Hi Plessis,
Is it working with the file I've attached
If yes, this means you had a problem when making th component cut.
If no, it is a Sketchup config problem or something independant of the script itself.
Hope this helps, -
hello Didier,
Thanks,
Even with the attached file I'm not successfull.
Perhaps it is a SU config problem.
I don't know how to solve that.
Bad luck for me !
In the future I have to cut first the holes
and after that I can place the windows / doors.
Such as I did it in the pastHans

Hello Didier,
I think I have found it.
When I " intersect with model "
and after that the selected face erase IT WORKS !Hans
Ahh no !!! Not wih thick walls.!!!
-
Plessis,
You mean you placed components on walls and these walls were groups ? -
Didier,
The walls are no components or groups.
I was too enthusiastic.
It works not.Hans
-
Keep trying, there's absolutely NO reason it cannot work for you and it works for others.
-
I seem to be having a problem myself with this Didier.
I am using your posted skp to test.
Using your window component included I right click, click the four corners in a clockwise direction then finish with a fifth click on the 1st point.I get the 4 pink squares until I click outside the component on finishing.
If I double click and open the component, the axis is sat on the plane where the pink boxs were.Placing the window on the wall does not cut.
Am I missing a step? -
Didier, you can embed Flash during the post, can't you? (True it needs to already be somewhere on the net).

Hi,
@unknownuser said:

Yes. Once the component has been placed on the wall, you must "tell" SU where the window will be (in the width of the wall).
Right-click, select "window and wall / Cut wall from window".
Watch this little flash anim:

The controls should be within the flash file. I can't open pure flash files here in my office but I1ll have a look at home.
Also I don't use Wink but Coen does so I'll let him know about this and he can give you some advice maybe.

Sorry, I didn't noticed that
Let's see if it works.EDIT: I only see the wink logo when embedding that:

Hi Didier
I'm having some problems when I enter distance from inner face of wall.
My wall is 400mm, and when I enter 230mm, it places the window 2300mm from the face - there seems to be some small bug here ? I know, I can just enter 23mm, then it's ok, but just wanted to let you know. Nice script
