Divide a Sheathing into Fields with a Polyline
Framer, Floor Framing & Rafters
This function can be used to divide a horizontal structure or sheathing into fields. You can define individual origin points and sheathing directions for each field.
Divide sheathing into fields with a polyline as follows:
- Select a structure and a layer of type SHEET.
- Select Plane Structure | Framing | Framing Gallery Base Point.
- Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu.
- Select Add Split > By Poly.
- Select the points of the division line, locking the cursor if necessary.
- After selecting the end point of the division line, select Confirm.
Note
- The division line should continue unbroken from one end of the horizontal structure to the other, but should not go over the end.
- When sheathing is divided into fields, the program will add one origin point to each field. You can change the direction of the sheathing by editing the origin point.
- Update the sheathing by selecting Add Sheathing.
