Mixed - Convert vertical rectangle to 2D Block

The Mixed_Convert vertical rectangle to 2D Block tool can be used to convert vertical rectangles into horizontal 2D blocks that represent doors or windows. There are two placement modes available:

1. Manual Mode

2. Automatic Mode

Requirements: 

• For Manual mode: Select multiple vertical geometric rectangle objects that represent doors and windows and the Room Contour.

• For Automatic mode: Select multiple vertical geometric rectangle objects that represent doors and windows and the walls' centerline (this can be generated using the Polyline_Wall Center tool).

Steps:

A. Select multiple vertical geometric rectangles that represent doors and windows in each room, along with the polyline that represents the wall centerline.

B. Execute the script and choose the Mixed_2D Doors and Windows option.

C. The script will prompt you to select a mode:

• Manual Mode

• Automatic Mode

Manual Mode:

This mode allows you to:

• Place a 2D block for each selected vertical rectangular object (representing doors or windows).

• Define the placement side of the 2D block — either on the Left or Right side relative to the direction of the Room Contour.

• Specify the depth of each 2D block individually, allowing accurate representation of door/window thickness.

Automatic Mode:

• Automatically places 2D blocks based on all the selected vertical rectangles and centerlines.

Notes:

• For the Automatic mode, it is mandatory to use the centerline generated via the Polyline_Wall Center tool. This centerline includes the wall thickness parameter, which is essential for the script to function correctly.
