Workflow
To manually place individual façade elements:
- Open an Elevation view.
- Select the desired element (window, door, or balcony) from the top toolbar.
- Click on the façade to place the element.
- Adjust its position and properties as needed.
Creating Custom Element Sizes
You can place the pre-defined element types or create new ones to fit your needs.
To define custom element types:
- Open the drop-down menu in the toolbar.
- Select + Create new.
- Configure the desired parameters — dimensions, color, and element features.
- Click the Save New button at the bottom of the palette to save this new type to your project Library.
- It will be added to the menu of pre-defined element types.
Drawing Freehand Window Shapes
You can also draw window shapes of any size directly on a facade.
If the outline of the proposed shape appears red, the placement is invalid. This may occur if:
- The shape overlaps with another element, or
- The shape is placed outside the building boundary.
Limitation: Empty Openings are Not Available
- Façade openings are created by placing window, door, or balcony elements. It is not currently possible to create a plain void in a façade — for example, a recessed open corridor, an open loggia, or a pass-through with no glazing.
