FlexTools Extension – Extensions – SketchUp Neighborhood


Hey Kevin,

One of the best ways can be to position a flex part (or all of the flex parts) in a mannequin. Modify the tag names to match the ConDoc tags (and customise the rest, like sizes, supplies and so on. that you just’d wish to have as your defaults) after which save the parts apart right into a folder in your onerous drive utilizing Part Finder.

It’s doable @mikebrightman has others concepts on learn how to change default tags for flex parts by means of the ConDoc plugin.

The fastened window part has one body with out the inside sash body, so sure, most likely the easiest way can be to make use of a casement or awning and delete the 2D elevation symbols and delete the deal with.

Should you want to modify the symbols (to an X for instance for marking a set window) be certain that all edits to the image parts are inside their part boundaries and attain the boundaries too. If the geometry is smaller or bigger bizarre distortions will occur after a part refresh…

Is there a technique to not have the lower openings paint the opening faces with the fabric that’s on the primary face that will get lower? I’d prefer it to maintain the lower faces the default materials

I’m afraid which you can solely present the Mass modeling – Reveals

Then edit it’s prooperties and alter the color (double click on on it)

The one drawback is that you’ll have two faces in the identical place

This can be a good resolution! To beat the flickering of double faces you’ll be able to disguise the wallcutter generated reveals. To do that, with the window/s chosen:

Open the wallcutter settings:

Select to Cover Reduce Faces:

Maybe in a future replace we may add an possibility within the wallcutter settings to “not paint the reveals with the wall’s outer coloration”.

Is there a technique to disguise the underside then on the Flex slider door/window? I don’t need that backside massing to indicate on the ground

The button @Yoni stated a number of submit earlier than “disguise cuts faces”

Doh! I used to be confronted with this prior to now week or two and solely seen this now!

On this case, go into the slider part, and into the reveals sub-component (it’s known as “wall_all”) and delete the underside face. Usually you’ll be able to (nearly) at all times delete elements you don’t want.

Questioning if anybody has expertise creating Flex Home windows with window body flanges as default. Haven’t discovered a flange possibility within the dynamic part choices listing but. Searched with Google on the lookout for “Flextools window flanges” …and so on, however no related hits but. Not a deal breaker. May add some flange geometry to the window part myself I suppose, but when it’s a buried possibility in Flex Window parts already that may be a time saver.

Bought FlexTools a pair years in the past, however initially had bother making use of home windows and doorways to surfaces that weren’t on one of many three world axis… most likely my inexperience. Didn’t use it a lot as a result of my major undertaking on the time concerned a big quantity of geometry rotated off the worldwide axis.

Since my subscription auto-renewed in Could-2023 I’m attempting to make use of FlexTools as soon as once more and resolve whether or not to maintain my subscription subsequent 12 months. Many customers remark that they discover FlexTools fairly helpful, so I wish to use it.
