Parameters

To simplify working with multiple windows in the scene, the settings panel will automatically display the name of the active window.

_images/03_parameters_settings.gif

Common Parameters

The parameters depend on the selected window preset. However, there are common parameters, including Profile, Width, Height, Handle Settings, Glazing Settings, Lites Settings, Materials Settings, and Options.

Window Profile

This section features an icon gallery that allows you to choose one of the built-in window profiles. Click on the Profile icon:

_images/03_parameters_profile.gif

Note

Custom profiles aren’t currently supported due to dependencies on specific parameters for hinges, handles, and striker plates. Feel free to contact us for specific profile requests.

Materials

This section allows you to assign materials to your window.

Warning

For the materials to work correctly for mapping, choose the UV Map node and select UVMap (in some cases, the Realize Instances option must be enabled in the Options sections).

_images/03_parameters_materials.png

Note

  • UVMaps: The window includes necessary UVMaps, although there may be rotation issues at certain widths due to limitations in controlling UV unwrapping in geometry nodes.

  • Spacer Material: If you wish to change the spacer material, it’s recommended to adjust the existing material to your needs as it contains a custom bump map for a realistic look and helps to reduce extra geometry for the spacer.

Options

This section includes parameters for centering the window, realizing instances, and applying the modifier.

Origin in Center

Centers the window within the geometry bounding box.

_images/03_parameters_origin.gif
Realize Instances

Converts instances into real geometry.

_images/03_parameters_instances.gif
Apply Modifier

Applies the geometry nodes modifier.

_images/03_parameters_apply.gif

Important

For this option to work correctly please activate built-in “Modifier Tools” add-on in Prefernces.

Warning

Once applied, you will lose the ability to adjust any of the modifier’s parameters. Press this button if you are ready to export the window to another program or if you need to edit the final window directly (e.g., deleting or adding elements).
