Hi, this is a code that I made to graph the population and houses by block attributes in a model, it's a simple code that I wanted to share Also, I have a blog were I post some of the my work in CE, cheers GDA – Arquitectura desde SIG, BIM y Programación  CODE @Order(0)@Range("Habitantes", "Viviendas") attr Visualizacion = "Habitantes" attr NumeroHabitantes = 0 attr NumeroViviendas = 0 @Range("Si","No") attr Gradiente = "No" @Hidden attr Alt = 100 @Hidden attr DiferenciaCotas = 0 ##################################CODIGO#################################### Lot -->     alignScopeToAxes(y)     DiferenciaCota(scope.sy)      DiferenciaCota(Dif) -->     extrude(world.y, Alt)     split(y){Dif: Base | ~1:NIL}           Base -->     set(DiferenciaCotas, scope.sy)     comp(f){top: AreaExtr | all: NIL} AreaExtr -->     alignScopeToAxes(y)     t(0,-DiferenciaCotas,0)     NIL     Cyl      Cyl -->     case Visualizacion == "Habitantes" :         i("Cyl2.DAE")         s(40,(NumeroHabitantes)+DiferenciaCotas,40)         center(xyz)         t(0,((NumeroHabitantes)+DiferenciaCotas)/2,0)         set(material.opacity,0.8)         Colorizacion     else:         i("Cyl2.DAE")         s(40,((NumeroViviendas)+DiferenciaCotas)*2,40)         center(xyz)         t(0,((NumeroViviendas)+DiferenciaCotas)/2,0)         set(material.opacity,0.8)         Colorizacion      Colorizacion -->     case Gradiente == "Si":         case Visualizacion == "Habitantes":             color(NumeroHabitantes/100+0.01, 0,0.3)             else:             color(0.2,0,NumeroViviendas/50+0.01)     else:         case Visualizacion == "Habitantes":             color(1,.2,0)         else:             color(.2,.2,1) ...

Hi, I was wondering how the pipes in the Manhole example were made?, are they imported from BIM software?, is there a rule? I've been trying to set up a rule for that, the best I can do is with an imported cylinder (attached file) , but it doesnt work that well Also, are there any examples of cga rule application for sewerage or water installations, that could actually be helpful for engineer or contractors? Thanks!! ... View more

Hi I watched a video about the M Buehler Favela project, and I want to know how he make a group of polygons follow the terrain surface, he use it to trees and vegetation, I know about the align shape to terrain, but it seems like he use a big polygon and then he divide it into a grid that he adapts to the terrain Thanks ...

Some time ago I found on another thread a fence code, I studied it and now I tried to made it into a fence that includes doors (entrances), but I can't make it work when there's sloped terrain: attr poleHeight = 2 attr barHeight1 = 0.15 attr barHeight2 = 1.7 attr barHeightDoor1 = 0.25 attr barHeightDoor2 = 1.6 attr barDimension = 0.08 attr poleWidth = 0.08 attr poleDist = 3 attr poleThickness = 0.08 attr boardWidth = 0.03 attr boardDist = .08 attr boardHeight = 1.9 attr boardThickness = 0.03 Lot -->     extrude(world.y, poleHeight)     comp(f){side: FrontFence} FrontFence -->     split(x){~.5:Reja("fence") | 2.5: Reja("door") | ~.5:Reja("fence") | .75: Reja("door") | ~.5:Reja("fence")} ########################################################################## # Fence ########################################################################## Reja(Tipo) -->     case Tipo =="fence" :         MakeBar1("fence")         MakeBar2("fence")         PutPoles     else:         MakeBar1("door")         MakeBar2("door")         PutPoles ########################################################################## # Fence ########################################################################## MakeBar1(Tipo) -->     case Tipo == "fence" :         split(y) {barHeight1 : NIL | barDimension : extrude(barDimension / 5) t(0,'-1.2,0) Bar | ~1 : NIL}     else:         split(y) {barHeightDoor1 : NIL | barDimension : extrude(barDimension / 2) t(0,'-1.2,0) Bar | ~1 : NIL} MakeBar2(Tipo) -->     case Tipo == "fence" :         split(y) {barHeight2 : NIL | barDimension : extrude(barDimension / 5) t(0,'-1.2,0) Bar | ~1 : NIL}     else:         split(y) {barHeightDoor2 : NIL | barDimension : extrude(barDimension / 2) t(0,'-1.2,0) Bar | ~1 : NIL}     Bar -->     color(.1,.1,.15)     alignScopeToAxes(y)     comp(f) {front : BarBevel | back : BarBevel | all : Bar.} BarBevel -->     roofGable(45)     split(y) {'.1 :comp(f) {bottom : NIL | all : Bar.} | ~1 : NIL}     ########################################################################## # Poles ##########################################################################     PutPoles -->     alignScopeToAxes(y)     split(x) {{ poleWidth: MakePole | ~poleDist : PutBoards}* | poleWidth: MakePole } MakePole -->     color("#706050")     alignScopeToAxes(y)     innerRect     s('1,'1,poleThickness)     i("assets/fencePole.obj")     t(0,0,'-1)     Pole. ########################################################################## # Boards ########################################################################## PutBoards -->     alignScopeToAxes(y)     split(x) {{ ~boardDist : NIL | boardWidth: MakeBoard}* | boardDist : NIL }    MakeBoard -->     alignScopeToGeometry(zUp, 0, world.lowest)     s('1,boardHeight,'1)     Board Board -->     color("#706050")     alignScopeToAxes(y)     innerRect     s('1,'1,boardThickness)     i("assets/fenceBoard.obj")     Board.

Hi I was working on a cga excercise when I got stuck writing this split operation: BuildVolume -->     split(y){floorHeight("GF") : Volume("GF") | ~1: UpperFloors} I give me the Mismatched token error ( : | ), I don't know whats wrong, in a previous line I used a similar operation with no errors: ScopeAligned(yDim) -->     extrude(world.y, 100)    split(y){yDim : BaseVolume | ~1: NIL} in the excercise they use the 2015 version, I got the 2014, could that be it?, when I add the tilde the error dissappears (pic 2) but that's not how they do it What I'm not seeing? ...

Hi, I am working on a scene where there's a terrain with a pronounced slope, I'm trying to align the streets with the vertical alignment, but when I get to the crossings it doesn't allow me to rotate them, is there a way to set up a street rule code to rotate them? thanks ... View more

Hi, here I am again with another question for you all, Im importing Collada buildings in my scene, but when I import them they lost light reflection when I rotate one way or another it doesn't seem to be from the light of the scene, because there's different wall facing to the same orientation with different intensities of light, also from the roof of the buildings Here's an example when I rotate the building with a top view: What can be causing this? ...

Hello everyone, I'm new to CE, I'm starting my first project and I have a question; I'm creating a simple rule to put texture to facades, using the comp function and the fileRandom to select textures for each simple building, but I can't find a way to put textures or to separate facades when are in the same side (pictures), the picture is repeated and fitted in the area of the face I'm using the construction border polygon Is there a way to separate this facades to apply different textures, or a way to "unite" them as one facade?
