mdkBIM Introduction (Japanese - 日本語)

A brief introduction of the mdkBIM bundle in Japanese.
mdkBIMバンドルの日本語での簡単な紹介です。

#917
Version 1.9.0 - 02.24.2021
- Fixed a bug with the end stud height for Shed Walls with an "Inset Outside Corner".
#918
Version 1.8.9 - 02.22.2021
- Added a "Cedar Siding" built-in material (vertical) into the material library.





#919
Version 1.8.8 - 02.17.2021
- Enabled options for wood grain texture for lumber and pressure treated lumber in the global settings.



#920
Comparison between the solid coloring and with the textures enabled (Lumber and PT Lumber):



I am quite happy with the way the pressure treated texture came out.
#921
I've had a number of people recently ask me for the ability to apply a wood grain texture to the lumber (ie. studs, plates, blocking, etc...)  This really isn't a big ask, so I am going to enable another couple parameters in the global settings (Material Tab) so that the user can apply a texture to lumber and pressure treated lumber.  Here is a first look at what that will look like (compare the wood grain wall to the solid colored wall):



I've tried to be very subtle with the wood grain texture so that it approximates my default lumber color but as you can see it is a slightly darker shade.  I'm not sure I am entirely happy with it yet but it is a start.

Medeek Wall Plugin / Re: Using 2D in Scenes

Don't change all of your walls to 2D, leave them as 3D and in the global settings (General Tab), turn on the "2D Geometry in 3D".  This will allow you to have both and then in your scenes you can show whichever is necessary.

Version 1.8.7 - 02.15.2021
- Added an option for the garage door track in the global settings.



Currently you cannot set this parameter per garage door, it can only be set globally (in the Garage Door tab).

#924
Version 1.2.7b - 02.13.2021
- Enabled the ability to draw UK outlets and switches with Medeek Polyline Stemwall assemblies.

#925
Version 1.2.7 - 02.13.2021
- Enabled the ability to draw outlets and switches with Medeek Polyline Stemwall assemblies.

#926
Version 1.6.6 - 02.12.2021
- Added logic to the final assembly routine to allow for electrical components (Medeek Electrical) to be retained within all foundation assemblies.

#927
Version 1.8.6 - 02.11.2021
- Added the following Simpson Strong-Tie hangers to the beam hanger library: LUS26-2Z, LUS28-2Z, LUS210-2Z.
#928
Version 2.8.0 - 02.10.2020
- Minor modification to the range of available pitches for valley truss sets.
#929
Version 1.6.5 - 02.09.2021
- Fixed a bug with anchor bolt placement for polyline stemwalls.
- Added an option for a zero depth footing for polyline stemwalls, which eliminates the footing for this foundation type.



By setting the depth of the footing to zero you can eliminate the footing from a polyline stemwall, so only the stemwall portion of the foundation is drawn.  This is per customer request.

Also the algorithm for anchor bolt placement for polyline stemwalls is greatly improved, however there can always be further improvements, any feedback is always appreciated.

When the foundation segment lengths in a polyline stemwall foundation are too short this is what you get (notice the anchor bolt placement):



I'm working up some additional logic to properly deal with anchor bolt placement with short segment lengths.
