Managing elements read

The management of the elements from the digital model of the building, obtained from the associated BIM project, is carried out from the "Elements read" menu located on the left sidebar of the application.

The elements read are structured in the form of a tree according to two types of classification:

  • By "Models": users can inspect each contribution linked to the job and, within this, each associated 3D model.
  • By "Categories": allows users to group the "Elements read" into families according to their characteristics.

Three buttons are displayed next to each component of the tree:

  • Visible
    Enables or disables the visibility of the elements.
  • Visualisation mode
    Allows users to toggle between normal, transparent and wired display modes.
  • Snap
    Allows users to enable or disable object snaps of the elements.
Note:
It is important to note that the configuration applied in the organisation by "Models" will prevail over the one indicated by "Categories".

The following actions can be carried out via the toolbar in the top left-hand corner:

  • Isolate selection
    Allows users to isolate elements of the 3D model. By selecting the elements of the 3D model to be isolated and clicking the right mouse button, the rest of the elements of the model will disappear.
  • Hide
    Allows users to hide the selected elements. By selecting the elements of the 3D model to be hidden and right-clicking on them, they will disappear.
  • Show all
    Shows all hidden elements.
  • Appearance
    Allows users to choose between normal drawing or monochrome drawing.
  • BIM information
    Displays a panel with the attributes associated with the selected component.
