Display options

There are many ways to set the graphical view. See Display options.


Visibility

With visibility you can make a selection of beams and/or plates visible.

How does it work? Make a selection (see Make selections) and click on this menu option. Only the selected beams and/or plates will now be drawn. The other beams and/or plates will be drawn transparently.

Helpful tip: You can now also make a sub-selection. How? Rotate the model make another selection and press "Visibility" again.

To undo this click on this menu option without making a selection.


Search

The Search function allows you to look up a node, beam or profiles quickly and very easily. See Find.


Dimension

Dimension line. You can use this to draw associative dimension lines. You can place the line with 3 clicks. You click on 2 existing nodes and choose the position of the line. There is an automatic snap to previous dimension lines.


Zoom extents

With zoom extents the entire construction is shown in full screen with the default camera position.


Zoom selection

With zoom selection the selection is displayed full screen. If nothing is selected, the entire construction is shown in full screen with the last camera position..


Line view / Solid

solid

Setting whether:

· The wireframe and nodes are drawn (Line view) or that

· all profiles are drawn as solid model in true size (Solid model view)


Distance

By this you can measure distances between 2 nodes. The distances are displayed in 4 directions. In x-, y-, z- and xyz- direction.


Screenshot

Make a screenshot. The screenshot is copied to the clipboard ( so you can immediately paste the image to your MS-Word document), and is also saved as a file in the map where the input file is saved, under the name: "name of your input file date time.png". In this way you can always retrace your images.


Snap size

The amplitude in mm in which is searched to a known point (node/middle of a beam/ grid line). The default value is set to 150 mm. Generally this value suffices.
