How to add wall louvers?
Updated over a week ago

To add wall louvers, follow these steps:

  1. Select the Wall: First, choose the wall where you want to add the louvers.

  2. Access the Tiling and Cutting Tool: Navigate to the tiling and cutting tool within your design panel on the left side.

  3. Add the Shape: Within the tiling and cutting tool, locate the "Add Shape" option. Use the line tool to draw the outline of the area you wish to tile. In your specific design, draw one louver.

  4. Array the louver across wall: Window-select the shape, and select "Copy" in the toolbar. In the left panel, select mode as Multiply straight, specify the c-c distance/number of louvers, select the base point, and array the louver.

  5. Apply the Outline: Once you've accurately drawn the outline, click the "Apply" button to confirm your selection. In the modal that pops up, select "Save as One Entity" to avoid assigning the same properties to each and every louver.

  6. Give It a Extrude Property: Select the newly created tiling outline and assign it the "Extrude" property in the design panel option.

  7. Assign it a Thickness: Under Depth field, type in the desired louver thickness.

  8. Shift the louvers: Under Front Shift, specify the distance by which you want to shift the louvers ahead of the wall. Specify 0 for louvers touching wall surface.

  9. Material Selection: To apply a specific type , fetch the desired material from your software's material library. You can explore various options, or if you have a specific material in mind, you can search for it.

  10. Finalize and Apply: Once you've customized the louvers, select the Back to Designing arrow at the top right. You will return to your design with the louvers added.
