Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Footprint	getFootprint() Calculates the footprint for this window based on the assumption that the expected footprint the caller wants is calculated based on positioning of the window inside a wall and an opening.
Footprint	getGeometricalFootprint() Calculates the footprint for the window based on the actual geometry of the window.

Method Detail

getFootprint

Footprint getFootprint()

Calculates the footprint for this window based on the assumption that the expected footprint the caller wants is calculated based on positioning of the window inside a wall and an opening. Footprint is calculated by extending the window to the intersection of the wall and an opening inside it. If there is no opening or wall found around the window, the calculation falls back to the default footprint calculation and is equal to getGeometricalFootprint.

Specified by:

getFootprint in interface Component

Returns:

the footprint

getGeometricalFootprint

Footprint getGeometricalFootprint()

Calculates the footprint for the window based on the actual geometry of the window. This matches the way footprints are calculated by default for entities.

Returns:

the footprint
