Shapefile to Object seems to not work well with courtyards

[jimenofonseca]

@chenkianwee do you know what could be the problem. Is py4design not able to extrude courtyard typologies, or are we doing something wrong?

Quoting Martin:

"The geometry generator appears unable to process buildings with courtyards! Basically, these buildings seem to be imported as solid blocks with no empty space in the middle. See images below (the extruded shapefile is shown in pink on the left, the visualization from geometry_generator.py is in white on the right):"

See more details in the CEA issue: architecture-building-systems/CityEnergyAnalyst#1831

Hi Jimeno,
Sorry I did not see this issue. I am not sure what function is used for the extrusion. I hope everything is resolved?

Hi Kianwee, Unfortunately it is not solved. It has to do with the octaface extrimysion and the verification of closed geometry. I wonder if you addressed/ can give us a small hand with this issue somehow. I much appreciate it!
