I'm trying to make an arched entryway using the primitiveDisk operation in the wall of a gable roofed building.  The arch is coming along just fine and i'm sure i'll be able to make the pattern I need on the inside, but there is a gap being left in the wall by the rectangular shape the primitiveDisk operation uses.  Any ideas on how to fill the gap or better solve this problem? See the attached screenshot...

You should be able to fill the gap by extruding the faces of the arc upwards, with a flat top. So extrude(world.up.flatTop, archeight). Haven't tested it, though. You might have to fiddle with the scope.

That absolutely worked! No modifications needed, thanks so much! I'll post what it looks like now.

hi~

I still don't understand how you generate arched entry. Can I see your rules? 

Thank you very much
