Hello everyone, I’m reopening a support topic regarding the use of VisualARQ. I’ve watched almost all the tutorials on the official channel, although I’m not fully up to date with the latest VisualARQ features. I’ve recently started using the software again.
My horizontal slab is made of two separate layers on distinct entities. This helps me calculate quantities more accurately and distinguish between existing elements (the structural slab) and new construction (the concrete screed and the floor finish).
The problem is that the door opening appears lifted above the base of the wall, and the lower part of the wall interferes with the floor. If I try to hide that portion using VisualARQ’s solid subtraction, the lower wall segment disappears, but the floor does not reappear. In VisualARQ 2 this workflow usually solved the issue.
New issue. If the walls are higher than the roof, when I try to extend them toward “Top” it cannot shorten them. This is the method I used in version 2, because when I started from walls with a lower height I had problems with the quantity calculation
I’m revising this issue, and there’s no bug here, but a limitation of the program. Unfortunately there’s no good solution for this right now. Subtracting solids from the wall doesn’t prevent the wall from cutting the slab under the door, so you will still see the gap that the subtracted solid generates in the wall, which also cuts the slab.
We need to study how to achieve this.
That gap remains in the slab under the wall, because the solid subtracted to the wall keeps cutting the slab. The other gap in the slab (where the wall was located) is just the boundary you gave to the slab.
