Example: Framing Drawing-model Pair of Foundations

The template building included in the basic software delivery has a "Foundation, framing" drawing-model pair. The customer-specific template buildings do not necessarily have this drawing-model pair. However, the drawing-model pair is necessary if you wish to set the foundations visible in the framing model. Add the drawing-model pair to the template buildings, if necessary. You can also add the drawing-model pair to an individual building.

  1. Open the template building.
  2. Open the building's document browser.
  3. Right-click Settings.
  4. Select Create New Drawing-model Pair.
  5. Make the following selections:
    • 2D Drawing:: fnd.vxp
    • 3D Model: FRAMING.vxm
    • Description: Foundation, framing
    • Parameter Set: FOUNDATION
  6. Confirm by clicking OK.

Set a serial number for the drawing-model pair as follows:

  1. Right-click Settings.
  2. Select Edit Drawings and 3D Models of Building.
  3. Move to the row of the drawing-model pair you just added (the last row).
  4. Enter a serial number in the Order field. For example, if the serial number of the Foundation drawing-model pair is 2, enter 3 as the serial number of the framing drawing-model pair of the foundations.
  5. Make sure, that the value in the In use field is YES.
  6. In the Properties field of the Foundation drawing-model pair (number 2), add the number of the corresponding framing drawing-model pair. In this case 3, FRAMING= 3.
  7. Confirm by clicking OK.
