Editing tools
In the "Edit" group of the main toolbar of the "Installation" tab, either in the "Water Systems" tab or in the "Sanitary Systems" tab, the following tools can be found:
Label
The options in this menu allow the following operations to be performed on the element labels:
Move tag in 2D mode | Moves the selected tag on the element's floor plan. | |
Move tag in 3D mode | Moves the selected tag in the 3D space. | |
Move tag to the initial point | Returns the tag of the selected element to the initial point. | |
Show/hide tag | Shows or hides the selected element's tag. | |
Place or remove the reference line of the tag | Shows or hides the line linking the tag to the selected element it refers to. | |
Rotate tag | Rotate the tag over its position. | |
Label | Edits the composition of the labels of different categories of elements and the size of the text. |
Edit
The options in this menu allow the following editing operations to be carried out on the elements of the system entered in the model:
Edit | Edits the parametric properties of the selected element in the model. | |
Delete | Deletes a previously entered element. | |
Move element | Moves an element or a node of an element. | |
Move a group of elements | Moves a group of elements. | |
Rotate element | Rotates an element about the "x", "y" or "z" axis. | |
Rotate a group of elements | Rotate a group of elements. | |
Copy | Creates a copy of one or more elements. | |
Assign | Assigns the parametric properties of the selected element to other elements. | |
Symmetry (copy) | Copies a selection of elements with symmetry with respect to a vertical plane defined by two points. | |
Symmetry (move) | Moves a selection of elements with symmetry about a vertical plane defined by two points. | |
Copy onto another floor plan | Creates a copy of the selected elements in the desired floor plans. This feature is only available on floor plans. | |
Measure lengths on plan | Measures lengths and angles between points defined in the model. If a closed outline is selected, it also indicates the area. | |
Projection | Switches to the plan projection (XY plane) in the work area. |
Search
Searches for an element by entering a text with its full reference or part of its reference.
- Only whole word (optional)
If this box is checked, only the elements that match the entered text in full will be searched for.
When doing this, the program locates the element in the model by means of magenta lines in the main directions of the space and an enveloping volume of the same colour.
Drawing
The options in this menu allow the following drawing resources to be entered in a plan view:
Note:
The display of these elements can be activated or deactivated using the "Editing resources" checkbox in the "Layer configuration" panel, located by default on the left-hand side of the general interface.
Elevation | Enters an elevation between two selected points, indicating the line colour, line thickness, and text size. | |
Line | Inserts a line between two selected points, indicating its colour and thickness. | |
Text | Enter a text and a reference line, indicating its colour, the line thickness and the text size. | |
Text box | Enter a left-aligned, right-aligned or centred text box, indicating the colour and size of the text, the properties of the frame and the background fill. | |
Arc | Enter an arc and, optionally, its radius, indicating the line colour, line thickness and text size. | |
Circle | Enter a circle and its radius or diameter, optionally, indicating the line colour, line thickness, and text size. | |
Rectangle | Enter a rectangle and, optionally, its area, indicating the line colour, line thickness and text size. | |
Area | Enter a dotted polygon and, optionally, its area, indicating the line colour, line thickness, and text size. | |
Polyline | Inserts a polyline by points, indicating its colour and thickness. | |
Edit | Edit the properties of the selected drawing resource. | |
Delete | Deletes the selected drawing resources. | |
Move | Moves the selected drawing resource or parts of it. | |
Assign | Enter a circle and its radius or diameter, optionally, indicating the line colour, line thickness, and text size. |
