I want to share a support request

Request
Can I insert openings (doors, windows, holes) by specifying their dimensions directly on the point cloud?

Answer
Yes, using the accelerators available in the software, it is possible to define and customize the dimensions of openings.  

How to proceed:
- Select the object to insert from the architectural menu, for example the Window;
- Click the button Points on the ribbon;
- Indicate the ends of the window with the left mouse button;
- On the display window that appears, it is possible to visually determine, with the point cloud overlaid, the dimensions and position of the void, see the measured values, rounded values, and the last used values;
- Confirm the desired values to insert the window.


The procedure is similar for inserting doors and other openings.
