Create Type Building Button

[CGingter]

Nearly done, need some help with the translations and i will also translate the picture files and folders there aswell.

[CGingter]

Some weird behaviour, i did not manage to resize the group boxes for residential so...the window gets slightly larger if you switch the example building (which will be renamed to type building along with englishing everything else).

You can adapt the translation from teaser/logic/buildingobjects/typebuildings

e.g.

"""
 residential_layout : int
        type of floor plan (default = 0)

        0: compact
        1: elongated/complex

    neighbour_buildings : int
        neighbour (default = 0)

        0: no neighbour
        1: one neighbour
        2: two neighbours

    attic : int
        type of attic (default = 0)

        0: flat roof
        1: non heated attic
        2: partly heated attic
        3: heated attic

    cellar : int
        type of cellar (default = 0)

        0: no cellar
        1: non heated cellar
        2: partly heated cellar
        3: heated cellar

    construction_type : str
        construction type (default = "heavy")

        heavy: heavy construction
        light: light construction

    dormer : str
        construction type

        0: no dormer
        1: dormer
"""

are you able to implement line breaks? this might solve the sizing issue?

[CGingter]

No this is just an automatic grid layout, i can only give positions and they take as much space as they need...or way more in this example but now idea why. I would propose to leave it this way since it is not really a problem and if someone has a bit of time in the future you could exchange the grid layout for a layout with specific coordinates.

[CGingter]

So for some reason translating to english fixed everything...woooo programming :-)

Now another issue becomes apparent. The left side of the window is very spread out because the window needs to be pretty long for the right part to look good in the residential view. I could move the Architecture box over to the left side but then the right side would be very spread out in the office view. Any ideas? I pushed it so you can check it out for yourself.

[PRemmen]

I think it might be nice to have the Construction Type (pls rename Architecture to construction type) on the left side. Maybe you can implement then just empty space under the radiobuttons to have a good design. Any other suggestions?

[mlauster]

Yep, moving Construction Type to the left side is an option.
Anyway, could you group the left side fields at the top of the box? Just as you did it in static heat load? This looks a lot more better. And if then at the left or right side is some space at the bottom, this is totally okay, the two sides don't have to have the same appearance.

[CGingter]

Is this better?
