SWOOD Door Design: Advanced Hinge Setup
This video explores advanced hinge setup in SWOOD door design, focusing on simplifying parameters and adding intelligent automation. It demonstrates linking hinge offsets for both sides, reducing variables from eight to four for easier control. Auto-spacing is introduced using equations to evenly distribute hinges between top and bottom offsets, calculated from panel height and hinge quantity. A Boolean parameter enables toggling between manual and automatic spacing. Additionally, weight-driven hinge quantity is implemented by linking panel weight to custom properties and scripting logic, adjusting hinge count based on thresholds. The tutorial concludes with tips for improving usability and preventing manual overrides.
