iToo Software has announced a new Tips & Tricks tutorial for RailClone. In this concise video they demonstrate how to slice a window model and use the pieces with RailClone to create new windows at any new size.

Here’s a general overview of the sliced window, then used to create any size in any given facade. Cool!

“In one of our demo reels we featured a brief clip of a parameterised window model. Since this was released we’ve been asked a number of times about how to create this kind of object. To answer those questions this new tips and tricks episode will look at the best way to prepare a window model and parameterise it using RailClone so that it can be easily re-used in different sizes. Once we’ve gone through the process of creating this object, we’ll also show how you can automatically fill an entire façade with windows in a single click.”.
