[Equest-users] error when custom drawing a building

[Nick Caton]

Footprint and space vertices basically need to be defined in a
counter-clockwise direction, otherwise your work will be lost and/or the
wizards will crash out.

 

"Counter-clockwise" means to define the footprint in a direction
opposite of a clock's hands - here's an illustration:

Subject: [Equest-users] error when custom drawing a building

 

To all:

 

I am in the DD Wizard and trying to draw a custom "Footprint Shape."
After I finish entering all of the coordinates I get an error saying,
"Error: Shape vertices must be ordered in a counter-clockwise
direction."  Then the "Custom Building Footprint" window closes and I
loose all of my information.  Then when I hit "Return to Navigator,"
eQuest freezes.  Does anybody know what the problem is?

 

Thank you

 

Yehuda
