I also think this is a good direction, Archicad to my knowledge already does this very well actually.carlopav wrote: ↑Sat May 16, 2020 7:53 am Well, it's not exactly to derive 2d from 3d, or 3d from 2s. I'd like to be able to work simultaneously on the 2d and on the 3d. That is, placing a wall and a dimension ad another wall, without having to take care of anything except having an active Building container and an active Annotation container. And doing it in the 3d view. The Arch SectionPlane approach is definitely what I envision as the good way to go.
How would you start experimenting this?
what if we started by trying to drop a line on the arcsection plane and see what it looks like?
If we can control it, tweak it, double click on the arch section plane and open it like sketcher and edit the line on it?
See if when you move the arch section plane it moves with host objects or not
How does it handle text etc, how to hide and show? etc etc
What do you think?
I agree, how can one get started on this?
What is the main prerequisite requirements?
Here is the way i see it since i'm not knowledgeable with programming and don't understand the bigger issues.
We can have within the 3D view a light version of documentation, and the have a separate file for heavy documention? a little bit like the way sketchup handles it? with sketchup and sketchup layout
