View Tasks - Updating Drawing Sheets
In the View Tasks dialog box, you can select to update generation models and/or views as well as the view draw settings, and the drawing sheet to be opened. The drawing sheet alternatives are customer-specific.
Dialog Box Options
- Update Views
- When you open a sheet for the first time, select the Update views check box. The elevation and cross section views will then be updated to match the model and the drawing settings. If the check box is clear, the sheet is only opened without updating the views.
- Update models
- When you generate elevations and cross sections for the first time, update the drawing generation models, if you have not already updated them by selecting the Update Views or Build a Drawing Generation Model function, for example. Update the drawing generation model also when you have modified the building model.
- Drawing Settings
- The default drawing method of the views is wireframe. You can also select OpenGL shading or Lightworks shading (requires the Rendering add-on feature for the software) as the drawing method.
- New
- Create a new drawing sheet as follows:
- Delete
- Delete a drawing sheet by selecting the desired sheet from the Sheets list and click the Delete button. The program will ask for confirmation before deleting the selected sheet. You can delete several sheets at once by selecting the sheets with the Ctrl key pressed down.
