I have drawn in 3d slabs and now I want to put in windows from the AEC_Modl, but a messages says "no walls found to cut" I have my wall slab Zbase @0 and Zheight @9', the windows will be sill @3'-8" head @8'-6". What am I missing?

Hello Philip,

AEC Modeler requires slabs or vertical polygons to insert windows. Wouldn't be possible that you have 2D lines instead of vertical slabs ?

This message that you report is typical when you try to insert 3D windows into 2D line walls.

The settings must be set ON for "F3 CutWall" in the main menu of AEC_Modl. Is it ?

Hope this helps.

Thanks Miguel, I did use slabs and I did have cutwalls on. It didn't work, but drawing the walls as polygons did work. Thank you for the reply.
"muito prazer"

Philip,

O prazer é meu.

Which is the DataCAD version you are using ?
I've just tested with both situations, in DataCAD 11.08 Beta (will be promply released) using 2D lines exploded to Polygons and Slabs.

It worked fine at all. I can remember some inconsistencies in previous releases of DC 11. Perhaps you can check for the last update.



Thanks,
Miguel
