Medeek Wall Plugin / Overlapping Drywall Handling
Last post by Stephan B - February 04, 2024, 12:36:25 PM
How do you recommend handling overlapping drywall in situations as shown in the included image?

Obviously I could edit the geometry to remove the overlapping part but is there a more efficient way to handle this where a Regen of the wall would not undo this.

Version 3.4.7 - 02.01.2024
- Updated the Columns tab of the Global Settings with new parameters.
- Added glazing color and opacity parameters to the Sheathing tab of the Global Settings.





The Columns tab now includes Custom and Blank under Column Type.

Up until now the glass color and opacity has been hard coded in to the plugin, now the user can adjust these values if desired.

Version 1.4.1 - 01.31.2024
- Improved the serial number verification logic within the License tab of the Global Settings.
- Updated the javascript logic within the License tab of the Global Settings.
- Added standard PVC (Schedule 80) electrical conduit sizes into the custom wire library.
- Fixed a minor bug with the edit wire profile logic of the wire module.



It turns out the outer diameter and bend radius of schedule 80 conduit is the same as schedule 40, only the wall thickness is different.  I learn something new everyday.

I would need more details when you talk about "additional structural framing parts".

I cannot stress enough that everyone should start by watching as many tutorial videos as possible:

http://design.medeek.com/resources/medeekwallplugin.pl#Videos

The plugin is now very deep and very broad with all sort of capabilities and "too many" parameters/options.  Unless you watch the tutorials you will not fully understand the power of this plugin and what it can do. 

Some complain that there are too many parameters but without all of these options the plugin would not be flexible enough and sooner or later you would find yourself running into something that you wish you had an option for.

The fourth icon from the left is the open/close tool:



The Opening Tool and Copy Opening Tool are on the Medeek Wall Tools II toolbar, they are something different.

Did you manage to get around to adding an option to display doors in their open or closed states?
