Thanks, the external experimental add-on SketchArch is still required for this to work.

And I have only basic python/FC knowledge that all the features / interface are very 'primitives' in fact :)

Can you add something to the wiki so users know about it @paullee?

Indeed currently there are only discussion threads and github readme on these experimental tools.

Before I learn and setup a wiki, please refer to the github readme at the moment - Experimental SketchArch Addon Readme :)

Thanks for any comments !

Wow, the wiki documentation is like another PhD course for me :lol:


In the meantime, anybody can help test again if the SketchArch Add-on (manual install currently only, not added to Add-on Manager yet) is working with ArchEquipment and ArchWindow ? :)


Then, first idea how / what to add to wiki - haven't found how to add a new wiki page yet, considering to add some paragraph e.g. to the ArchEquipments (much simpler than ArchWindows) in a way like below, any comments :?:

Code: Select all

 {{Page in progress}} 
 
 ==Augmented Properties==
 As of version 0.20, equipments objects can be augmented by the experimental external add-on SketchArch...
 
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2022 !

Ok, first attempt to edit a wiki, seem can have a better formatting.
