Windowizer
-
Never mind the non-english speakers Rick, just get it released
-
-
Message received.
Okay, here's the update:
-
added in the front-only option
-
added in the group/non-group option
-
added zero-width outside frame handling
(with those two items, setting to front-only and non-group will create things just like Windowizer3 did, just with more capability [generally speaking]).
My short-list for things remaining to do: -
Add "Edit" capability, like in W3
-
Add "Inherit properties" capability, like in W3
-
Add "Delete" capability, like in W3 (this may be difficult, since W4 will cut openings in "walls" now)
-
Handle zero-width mullions for butt-glazing
-
Investigate using components
If there's anything on the list you don't care about, I could put it off 'til the first update. If there's capabilities you want to see, let me know - I'll see what I can do.

You are a legend!!!

Awesome. SketchUp meets Revit.

Any chance for arched, Gothic windows with tracery and such?

ok, put them off... go ahead and lay it on us!

Rick, I'm with Fletch.

(JK)It's designed for storefront or curtainwall types of windows like Kawneer and so on. That said, it has been used for all kinds of things I did not expect (and which I have tried to maintain as best I could).

Would everyone who volunteered to translate please PM me your email address? It will be easier for me to handle things that way.
Thanks,
-
Forgive me for my horrible English.
I love this Script, I find it him very important.
Like you doesn't rest, you could consider those ideas:1 Configuration interface with previuw in the side.
2 Glaze and aluminum could come in separate objects and groups.
3 Incorporate technology BIM for future modifications in the window?
4 Open hole automatically in the walls, maybe an integration with the Plugin multi-layers Wall?
5 Choose profiles for the metallic part?
6 Save configurations with names for other sessions of use of Sketchup, with hidden file?Thanks anyway.
-
Several of those requested items are already included in version 4.
-
I am keeping my eyes on this wonderful plugin,
and I don't know if this can be used in building windows freely on curve faces? -
Thanks Rick for your V4 upgrade on windowizer. I have used windowizer for independently and ocsssionally with the housebuilder ruby and it works well, if you size the rough openings correctly.
Just a suggestion to check if V4 will continue to work with housebuilder. Are there many out there still using housebuilder.rb? or has it fallen from grace? Do you need any help translating US English to Canadian eh?
Cheers

While I haven't checked for compatibility, I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work with housebuilder.rb (but I could be surprised, I suppose).
Progress update: I learned of a serious bug that requires a fix before release. If I can get done with my day-job deadlines, I'll fix it this weekend.

You bet Thomas, the only thing holding me back from going SU solo.....
Actually, how 'bout a 'doorizer'?
-
doorizer .. that's a good idea!

I know there is a 'doormaker' ruby but if SU develops in time by way of talented scripter, then I believe protocol should be an important issue.
Eg: functions like windowizer and say 'doorizer' [for want of a better term] would be ideally located in the same drop down menus and adjacent to each other [IMO]. Standard CAD application protocol.....
@RickW - when it comes to ruby, I don't know my @%#$ from my elbow, but I assume a door script would be written a similar way to the windowizer ruby....?BTW, If I haven't thanked you for your tireless work and generosity, please accept my many thanks!!!
-
I vote for "doorizer" too, it would be great to have some parametric functionality as well
-
What's the difference between an external window and a glass door ? If you want to put a door into a curtainwall/shopfront that's been made with Windowizer you just Windowize a glazed panel [perhaps with a bit of tweaking to suit] within what you've just done and then set the dialog variables so it's 'door' - some manual adjustments might be needed - BUT remember that you are the designer... not Rick or his Windowizer !
There is already a 'door maker' script that makes 'solid' internal doors. It's really not that difficult to place 'standard' doors as components after you've made them. Making shopfronts etc is more specialised and Windowizer fills that gap...
