Sorry I wasn't able to get back to you last night.
These fill settings are global for all elements and control the display of the fills.
I don't think it is possible to control or ignore these settings in GDL.

Anything in the 'Options for GDL Objects' can be controlled which is where you will find the options for doors and windows.

So your best option is to make sure these fill settings are set correctly for each of the MVO combinations you use.

Thanks for the help. So as far as you're aware, there would be no way to work around having all options overridden in the MVO's.

Some of the MVO settings can be detected in GDL but as far as I know not for the fill display.

As mentioned anything in the 'Options for GDL Objects' section is fair game and the display of door and window markers.
You can also detect if the RCP (reverse ceiling plan) is set or not.

You can look through the REQUEST section of the GDL manual but I don't think you will find anything (although it has been a while since I have gone through it in detail).

Thanks Barry. Nothing found in the GDL manual Sad Sadly the 'Options for GDL Objects' is of no use to me with this issue. Seems strange not to be able to detect the MVO settings. Thanks again.

Hello,

I am having some issues with my image fill poly2_b{5}'s. In the image, the picture on the left shows an example of how every preview of the object looks. The image on the right shows how the object is intended to look including the image fill.

Here is the definition of the image fill:
Code:
define image_fill 'red'"Red_Image_Fill",
        255, 255, 255, 255, 255, 255, 255, 255,
        0.001, 0.001, 0, 0


Here is the code with it being used:
Code:
      FILL "red"
      poly2_b{5}      12,      3,      0,      3,     20,    20,

It has both the foreground showing in the preview as well as dashed lines running horizontal.

Any help would be appreciated. If you are able to point out any errors in my scrip I'd be grateful.

No.
You can only request a similar pen to a RGB color:
Code:
REQUEST ("PEN_OF_RGB", colorInRGB, pen)

It is 0-1 in all MacOS at least in early versions Wink
anyway it is more accurate BTW: 256 points vs _the_accuracy_You_need Wink
Not that I like it...and in any script I use X/255 to get the GDL needed value while any soft would rather give 0..255.

Best Regards,
Piotr

It was actually just in the Model View Options, it happens when you override the Fill Background Colour in the fill display settings. Very simple, but I just didn't work it out.

I know Piotr, but the accuracy is not the point. Smile
It is about consistence and usability.
The implemented way is just total madness! Wink It's like cooking by receipt with imperial units but living in Europe.

Hi,
I have a 2D symbol that I need to be able to show in elevation. The issue is I always need it to face towards the camera. Is this possible for elevation? I have an object which does it with normal 3D views but not with elevations.
Any help would be appreciated.

I think the way you are 'supposed' to do this, is by placing 2D objects in section elevation.

In our template we have layers for 2D and 3D vis elements for this reason.

The 2D billboard type objects that you have in 3D will not 'face' the elevation, as far as I know.

The issue is that the specific 2D symbol contains information (an ID) that is set and that needs to translate onto the 3D elevation. The placing of the 2D in the 3d isn't what we're after unless it is the only way. Do you know how to make the object always face elevation or if it is even possible?

Well, technically it is possible.
But it would require some additional GDL scripting, using GLOB_VIEW_TYPE.

Well, I have used that parameter on some objects for different floorplan symbols. It grabs the type of view.

GLOB_VIEW_TYPE=4 is a section, GLOB_VIEW_TYPE=5 is an elevation. This still doesn't tell you much of how to rotate the object though, as elevations / sections rotation on the XY grid of floorplan is not something you can query AFAIK. I mean, typically steps of 90 degree rotation will get you there for most projects, but not every design is a nice 4 sided equal box of elevations.

Are these actual building elements or just things like shrubs and people? If it is a building element, I would guess it is easier and quicker to model it in 3D if you have floor plan and elevations of it.
