    Posted: 30.Jun.2016 at 19:42
Interning for an architecture firm in Sweden, and am working on a lot of family objects lately.

One absolutely absurd situation has arisen. An 18-panel window which, to date, has required well over 2500 manual (3 clicks per lock) "align-and-lock" restrictions. I'm not even half way done. This is so that the window will be fully parametric. 

What gives? I literally spent weeks on these assemblies, and am in disbelief at the way it works. It is kind of like using pixels to paint in photoshop, because they hadn't bothered to invent the BRUSH tool.

So for now its "Fully parametric windows in 8300 easy steps".

Enjoy!
