Phillip-
<<..appropriate tool for the particular job / application at hand.
That line hits it right on the nose!
Some architectural designs (especially the one I like to do), are not simple
little extruded boxes, they are sometimes rounded with intersecting vaults or
walls. It is much easier to use AME in doing these operations than anything
else. I misunderstood you in earlier messages, but at that time I thought you
were talking about real architecture rather than extruded floor plans.
(unfortunately in the commercial world, some architects are forced to create
simple little buildings, and these probably could be created by cardboards).
But buildings can be as or more complex than doorknobs; it depends on the
architect who designed it!
Sorry if some of my earlier messages were too strong; I thought when you said
architecture, you meant high style architecture, rather than extruded floor
plans. Ask any architect; There IS a differnece.
Thanks for the clarification-
Joe
