gester Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 (edited) i've just stumbled upon a nemetschek solution for a skylight opening in a roof: vectorworks skylights at least the splayed opening works, without losing the roof 'intelligence'. unfortunately it winds up with an unrealistic 0 cm roof thickness at the top and bottom edges. maybe the second roof object could help (and also with components). nobody said it was easy rob Edited November 26, 2012 by gester Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Hey, cool, didn't know the whole help files were online in HTML. Handy to be able to link to them like that. Thanks Rob. Quote Link to comment
Guest BillV Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 There is a file of Velux Skylights. I dropped this into the roof and it worked perfectly. Very useful symbols. Quote Link to comment
gester Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 bill, i know these velux skylights, but i couldn't find a suitable one. i generally hardly find anything in the standard libraries (like currently an oil or a gas fired furnace, f.i.). it's high time to learn hybrid symbols creation rob Quote Link to comment
bc Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Yes the inserted Velux splay as per my previous post but only vertically along the fall line...not laterally to produce a pyramid as some prefer. Quote Link to comment
gester Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) i could be even grateful for 2d alone @christiaan yeah, online help is cool, but at 2am i prefer it served in bed by a cute brunette rob Edited November 27, 2012 by gester Quote Link to comment
Christiaan Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I'm a cute brunette, but I'm not serving you in bed! Quote Link to comment
