CodeGier Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Hello, is it possible having a path-PIO acting like a wall? I want to insert doors an Windows and they should cut out their shape as they do in walls. Thanks in advance. CodeGier Quote Link to comment

Hippocode Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) I think you can only do this with the sdk. You could create an extension off the VWWallObj or you could do some manual stuff with the polygon class. Edited October 23, 2014 by hippothamus Quote Link to comment
JBenghiat Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 It is possible in VS but not simple. You can make your PIO talk to the windows and doors, but you can't make the doors and windows notify the PIO of any changes. You would probably need to wrap the windows and doors in another custom PIO. The insertion is not automatic. The wall PIO needs to look for its children symbols and break accordingly. My solution for the symbols is to store the distance from the end of the path, which lets you update the symbol's position with respect to the path. I can provide some more tips, but definitely not a beginner's project. -Josh Quote Link to comment
