    Changing A Reference

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    perhaps a new reference > Drawing file, then a new reference >Viewport.

    In other words.. since the ReferenceFilePath was changed by renaming of the " Drawing File",

    it is mandatory to reestablish the primary FilePathReference prior to utilizing any secondary ViewPortReferences to it.

    Stair Tool then model

    Consider this workflow :

    1) A&E drawings + details for approvals & permits.

    2) Shopdrawings from suppliers & fabricators ( based on approved planset ) with revisions to planset noted.

    3) Revised A&E planset with new plans ( if req'd ), elev, sections, details ... and 3D modeling ( for interferences ) based on Shopdrawings.

    Steps 2-3 are electronic... DXF/DWG/PDF documents via servers.

    Actually, VW is proficient at this.

    When the TEME take over Earth ( we are the MEME ) ... this may be their architectural style !

    Mandelwerk's Description: Finally made it down to level ?2, one level beneath this: not much new here, another spaceship, slightly different. That smell of energy is more intense...

    I had my super magnifier with me this time so I did a close up on one of the structures and found more of the strange generators at nano level... It seems the whole place is constructed of these things.

    You can see three of them, a little bit different in shpe.

    I have too little time to document everything down here, have to go up to my safeplace.. I Will be back!

    Perhaps Sean was referring to vectorial geometry as compared with raster image.

    Of course, theres AcrobatPro Extended :

    One other option to explore:

    If the files are posted to your server with a secure User certificate required for downloading, then you can assign privileges and track processes.

    If legal recourse is require, then your server logs will provide the necessary verification that said User accessed your file system via password authentication on said date, and then downloaded said files prior to selling them on eBay.

    Geodesic Symbol with 31 Great Circle Arcs

    Link to > Vectorscript file >Geo_Syn_1132.01D_LCD.text.zip

    Download the Geodesic Tutorial File

    Decompress >Import>Vectorscript

    This tutorial has the 31 Great Circle Arcs of the Primary Polyhedra.

    Manipulate the ObjectClasses to view the various configurations as described in Synergetics Vol.2/1132.01D

    This should help all those who are interested in Geodesics.

    Method#1=Tetra rotations

    method#2=Pentagonal rotations

    of the LowestCommonDenominator LCD Tetrahedra

    Spheric = 120 LCD

    Includes brief notations describing the duplications-reflections-rotations

    This is about as simple as I can make : )

    Converting NURBS to Wall/Windowwall

    in Architecture

    Martiijn-It appears you want to create a basic geodesic strut wall with glass panels.

    It's actually fairly easy to do with Vw as long as you follow a few basic rules of spheric-trig.

    1) Decide on the primary propagator: tetra,cube,penta,octa ( combination )

    2) Then decide on the rotation : vertex, strut , or face

    3) Chose the required frequency of subdivision

    4) Chose the geodesic Type 1 or Type 2 , depending on the edge subdivision

    Then :

    Beginning creating each triangle as a symbol and rotating it into position.

    You can find plenty of examples here:
