Besides the doors I wonder how I should define a wall to get an irregular section. I mean I want to build a wall with a pedestal or a socle. How? I want it as a single element, but I am flexible here
It cannot be another wall of different width, because the pedestal section is irregular (letâs say some brick profile). Adding a solid to a wall doesnât work. Frankly, the best solution would bo to define a profile (a section) for a wall. Is it possible? Would it be possible in the future?

And the next step: is it possible to prepare complex definitions of walls, consisting not only of layers but also other elements? For example, some panels on profiles?

HI @jerry.bakowski, when you can create walls from Grasshopper styles (from GH definitions), you will be able to have walls with pedestals, panels, vertical studs and other components, or create walls from profile curves. This is planned for VisualARQ 3 version.
In the meantime, you will need to use the vaAddSolids and vaSubtractSolids to shape the profile of a wall.
Hello Francesc,
Thank you for your reply, I cannot wait for VA 3 
I donât know what I am doing wrong but substracting and adding any elements to a wall doesnât work. For now I have defined a window with a 3D block, including also some wall elements. But it is not a perfect solution, there are some weak pointsâŚ
Regards, Jaro
The solids must be overlapping a bit in order to make the addition or subtraction effective. Ifât is still not working, please send me the model to visualarq@asuni.com and I will take a look at it.
Francesc,
The problem is I wanted to add a jamb to a window. Wall overlapping doesnât work, it is a single layer wall. Iâve had to add some âfreeâ solids pretending to be jambs
On the right there is the window plus some additional solid, subtracted form the wall.
But there was another problem, and still it is: I have defined the window using a 3D block. I have assigned to its elements various section properties, but when the definition is ready it âforgetsâ the settings, all properties are set back to defaults.
I will work a bit on this, and then I will send you the model.
Regards, Jaro
Sorry about hijacking this topic, but this was too interesting.
Do you have a planned release date for VisualARQ 3? Will it be a paid upgrade?
Hi Jaro,
Ok, send me the file when it is ready and I will take a look at the solids addition problem.
Regarding the attributes on blocks used for windows, you need to assign the section attributes to the parts of the block before creating the block. Editing the block makes it loose these attributes.
We expect to release VisualARQ 3 in 2019. We will release a WIP version before the final release so people can test it. We donât know yet if it will be a free upgrade or not.
Weâre now in the mid of 2021 without seeing any VA 3 wip or a real roadmap to know whatâs going on
Hi @huss191998, I apologize because I did a wrong estimation of the VA3 release, back in 2018.
We currently have an internal version of VisualARQ 3 WIP. We will publish it as soon as we finish VisualARQ 2, and we include some of the new features we are working on (IFC4 support, for example). This WIP version will be only available for existing VisualARQ users.
We plan to release VisualARQ 3 in 2022.
Good news! Looking very much forward to VA3 WIP!
Which version of VA2 will be the last one, then? The upcoming 2.11?
Thanks!
There will be a 2.11 version in a couple of weeks and a 2.12 version later on, hopefully, the last one before VA 3.
Hi @jerry.bakowski as you may already know, in VisualARQ 3 it is possible to create walls from Grasshopper Styles. This way you can create a wall generated by a section profile. Iâve uploaded an example of it on food4Rhino: Wall From Section Profile | Food4Rhino
