Windows

Projection Distance

The distance used to project the window/door geometry onto parent rooms. Set to zero to have windows/doors only be added if they are coplanar with a room wall or roof.

Angle Tolerance

Angle tolerance in degrees, which sets the maximum angle difference between the normal vectors of the window and wall at which point the window will be projected onto the wall and assigned to it.

Is Revit Sourced

Select if the HBJSON file with windows has been exported directly from the Revit model. If so, the window geometry will be synchronized with the model's units and coordinate system if they have changed from the original Revit model.

Distance

The maximin distance that the edges of nearby windows will be moved in order to make them flush with one another

Ignore Windows

Select to have the windows left as they are during the operation

Ignore Skylights

Select to have the skylights left as they are during the operation

Offset Distance

The distance to offset the edges all windows and/or skylights. Positive values will offset the windows outwards (adding frame). Negative will offset the windows inwards (removing frame)

Overlap Resolve Method

The method that should be used for resolving overlaps between windows if offsetting causes them to collide. 'Offset To Flush' will make window edges flush at the centerline between windows that are closer than 2 times the offset distance. 'Offset And Merge' will join windows together that overlap after offsetting. 'Make Flush Only' will only make close windows flush without performing any additional offset of the boundary around each flush group.

Ignore Windows

Select to have the windows left as they are during the offset operation

Ignore Skylights

Select to have the skylights left as they are during the offset operation

Ignore Windows

Select to have the windows left as they are during the rectangularize operation

Ignore Skylights

Select to have the skylights left as they are during the rectangularize operation

Area Threshold

The maximum area of a window below which it will be removed.

Parent Edge Offset

A number for the distance from the parent face edges to which windows will be trimmed. Entering a non-zero number here can ensure that space is left on parent faces to account for window frames

Rectangle

Select to have overlapping window geometries resolved by replacing them with a boundary rectangle around the overlapped group instead of boolean unioning the overlapped geometries. Useful in cases where a dozen or more geometries overlap with one another such that the unioned result is not as clean or desirable as a bounding rectangle

Merge Distance

The maximum distance between windows at which point they will be merged together into a single simpler window

Single Window

Select to have the windows simplified to a single window within the center of each wall, which matches the overall area of the original windows

Delete Interior

Select to have the interior windows and doors removed from the rooms, which often have a negligible impact on overall building energy use

Ignore Skylights

Select to have the windows left exactly as they are during the process of simplifying skylights

Ignore Windows

A boolean to note if the windows should be ignored during the process of simplifying the windows
