Giving some thought to various topics today and my attention was drawn to inclined walls due to the need of this wall type when creating dormers etc…
After thinking about this for a few minutes I realized that I can take any wall type, basically subtract away the geometry which is bisected by the inclined plane and then draw the new inclined bottom plate(s).
The additional parameters needed to create an inclined wall are:
Angle of Incline: theta > 0, theta < 90
Direction: Left or Right
Offset: positive or negative from the start or end of wall
Thoughts or suggestions?
P.S.
It would actually take two boolean subtractions to remove the geometry. The first to remove the studs and other framing and the second to remove the sheathing, cladding, wainscoting, gypsum and other materials.

Version 3.1.2 - 02.05.2023
- Fixed a bug with metric templates that propagated from Version 3.0.8.
- Fixed a specific bug with auto-loading wall presets.
! ATTENTION !
Critical bug fix, especially for metric templates. I highly recommend upgrading to Version 3.1.2 if you have installed Version 3.0.8 or later.
The auto-load bug has to do with enabling the auto-load preset option in the Global Settings and then subsequently deleting the preset that was selected as the default auto-load preset.

Version 3.1.2b - 02.07.2023
- Fixed a minor bug with the Wall Selector Matrix (Gable, Shed and Hip walls).
This bug was due to some consolidation and general house cleaning I did with the code a few cycles back. Even when a gable wall was selected it would automatically revert to a rectangular wall. I just noticed this yesterday but the bug probably has been around for at least a month.

I just noticed that the Medeek Wall - Global Settings dialog has an UPDATES TAB. It mirrors the Change Log located on Medeek Website. This very convenient.
Any chance this tab can be added to the Global Setting dialogs of the other Medeek plugins?

I think you are the first person that has actually said anything about this.
Yes, my intent is to do this with each plugin, there is really nothing to it, but it just hasn’t been high on the priority list.

I’ve had a couple users experience a bug where the column ply qty. and the king stud qty. have shown up blank in the Column tab of the global settings.
Normally this tab should appear like something below.
If anyone else has encountered this bug please notify me via email (nathan@medeek.com).
I am trying to track this one down and resolve it but so far I have not been able to duplicate it on my own installation of the plugin.

So far so good with SketchUp 2023 and the plugins. I was able to do some testing with the BETA versions of SU2023 so I was pretty certain there would be no problems but you just never know with this sort of thing.
If anyone notices anything please notify me ASAP.

Hi, I was just wondering if there is a way to change the number of flutings in the build-a-column section? I have recently installed the plugin so if I am missing it, I do apologize. Thanks in advance!

Currently the number of flutes is hardcoded in but let me take a look at this.
P.S.
If I remember correctly the number of flutes is 24 except for the Doric column which is 20.
I suppose I could add another parameter that allows one to specify the number of flutes (within reason), I will take this under consideration.

“Fluted columns styled under the Doric order of architecture have 20 flutes . Ionic, Corinthian, and Composite columns traditionally have 24.”
However I can see that there may be cases where one would want to change this up.

Version 3.1.5 - 03.17.2023
- Added a fluting number parameter for classical columns.
(number of flutes)
Really wasn’t wanting to dig into this right now but after a quick inspection of my code I realized it would only take me a few minutes to add in this additional parameter so that one could fine tune the look of the fluting of classical columns.

I thought I would circle back to inclined walls since I had some questions on shed dormers over the weekend.
I’ve updated the wall menus to include these new parameters now I just need to create the boolean logic to modify the wall geometry accordingly:
This feature should give the user the flexibility to modify rectangular, hip, shed or gable walls as needed when an inclined bottom plate is required.
