Roof Safety on Near Shadings

[icicle]

Hi. How can I add a jea roof safety of 1 meter on each side of zones in Near Shadings?

Hi,

There isn’t a dedicated “handrail” object for roof safety in Near Shadings. While Simple and Double crossbar railings exist as Elementary shading objects, the most reliable way to add a continuous 1 m guardrail around each zone is to model it with parallelepiped objects and place them along the zone edges.

In your scene, go to Create → Elementary shading object and choose Parallelepiped.

Set the dimensions, for example: Height: 1.00 m, Width (thickness): 0.10 m (or match your actual fence width), Length: as needed for each edge.

Place the object along a zone edge, then copy and paste it to cover the entire perimeter. Rotate (using rotate tool in the Modify section) as needed to align with each side.

If your project specifically uses a crossbar-style railing, you can also try the Simple or Double crossbar elementary objects instead of parallelepipeds.

Can this be applied when I am importing a DAE file?

Yes, you can create elementary shading objects in your scene, whether you imported the scene from a 3D file or created it yourself
