Construction Lines

Post by junaidbinnaseer »

Hi

I am facing an issue with construction lines which is that by selecting a point of a surface, it does not start from 0,0 rather from some other point.
Lets say, a window of 1.1m X 2.5m needs to be place exactly 0.65m from a point. When using construction line, its starts measuring from a random number other than 0,0, so in the case above it might start at 61.25m.

How do you set the properties of construction line?

I believe this is a bug with the current version of IES. I would expect it to get fixed in the next update.

As a work around I have been constructing geometry in IES 2014 (where the construction lines work as intended) and then exporting the GEM file to IES 2015.
