 ===== Working with Connectors =====
-In TAD, a **connector** is the element that connects an atom to an envelope.
+In TAD, a **connector** is a spatial element that connects other spatial elements together. For example; a doorway opening or a window opening.
+In a regular building, there would be at least one connector from the external envelope to at least one of the //atoms// (i.e. rooms) inside the building; else how will people get in?
+Unlike other BIM software; TAD does NOT restrict when //connectors// need to be placed. In many other software; they insist that first one should have a wall in place and only then can you create an opening. There is no such restriction in TAD. After all, an architect when he/she is designing may choose to first locate the positions of openings and then later on decide what kind of walls go around the openings.
