Borders

Fernando Lino · Jun 17th 2017

I just downloaded the SketchUp version and I'm thinking of buying a license....The option to export it as EXE file to share it with clients is great but I would like to setup a box to define where one can fly and walk around the project.

Thanks,

Fernando

Hello Fernando Lino , great to hear you enjoy using our plugin!

Since, as a user, you can always switch to FlyMode by pressing the Space bar and thus freely fly through any obstacles, there's no way to place a 'wall' in Enscape to prevent users to enter a specific area.

However, using Section Boxes in Revit or Section Planes in SketchUp, you can easily define what should be extracted from your scene, and what not. This way, if you want to present for example one floor from a larger building, you only need to display that portion in Enscape.

I hope this answer is helpful to you? Please let me know in case this is not applicable for your case.

Hi Kaj,

what I was thinking is even if you export a lot of geometry and landscaping around the project if one can create an invisible box to define the space where you could move around....if you are flying only you could fly up to the height of the box that you defined previously. The same way if you are walking.

Thanks,

Fernando

Hello, for walking, just create verticale plane with texture and attribute to 0. he block you and he have no reflection.

Thanks Kaj

Thank you signpluspro.... The only issue with that solution is you get reflection all over....in my opinion a material to define borders and openings would be great
