Hi there,
I am utilising VisualARQ to create a series of CLT panels for a residential project. Since there are hundreds of panels to be manufactured, is it possible to give each wall a unique tag automatically? Something along the lines of W1, W2, W3 etc.
The purpose would be to make a schedule (table) with the unique values for manufacturing.
Thanks.
Hi Silas @Test_123,
You can use a simple Grasshopper definition to achieve this. Find attached the gh file.
Just open Grasshopper, open this file, type the “prefix” name of the wall tags in the indicated panel, and click on the “Update Property” button of the “Update Property” component.
Once you have the walls tagged, you can create a new table style (vaTableStyles) or edit an existing one that lists walls, and include the tag property field in that report.
Hi Francesc,
thank you so much for your reply - this has helped no end. I was also wandering if it is also possible to create a sperate table for the stair which has not been made in VisualARQ? I would effectively like to do the same thing, make a table with a unique value for each piece (for example S-1).
Thanks,
Silas
Hi Silas,
If these stairs are not true VisualARQ stairs, you can also list them in tables. But they need to be blocks instead (especially if they are composed by different elements).
Watch this video to see how would be the process of assigning names to them and creating a new table style to list their information. I also attach the gh file used in this example.
UpdatePropertyBlocks.gh (13.5 KB)
By the way, you can combine in the same table blocks and true VisualARQ stairs:
