Hi, does anyone have any good links, tips and tricks to model curbs and edging? I often need to have an edging around part of my hardscapes which are maybe10cm or so above the hardscape its self (also sometimes the adjoining planting will be lower).
Whats the best way to approach this? i have 2 main challenges to overcome:
modifying the site modell itself
Modelling and controlling an object that represents the curb stone (for visualisation and quantity takeoffs).
A way to combat both of these would be a curb object that alows allows allignment at a different level on either side. but i understand this tool does not exist yet.
my idea (which i have not tested yet) would be to create two 3D polygons that act as site modifiers, and then use somekind of modified railing (or wall object) as the curb stone, that would be alligned to one of the polygons (or maybe would have to be adjusted separately).
Does this sound feasable? I am very new to both Vectorworks and object based modelling, and having used civi3d for the last 10 years, i am probably thinking about this completly wrong, so apologies if what i am saying is complete nonsense!🙃
Any advice would be more than welcome- its an exciting but confusing new world in Vectorworks!
