Rafter-Purlin Plan - Display / Labeling

Calculate hidden lines: The hidden lines of the timbers can be subtracted. This increases the clarity of the plan.

Display hidden lines: If the hidden lines have been subtracted, they can be switched on again as dashed lines using this toggle.

Show centering polygon: The roof is centered on the top edge of level 0. This level contour can be displayed on the plan.

Show formwork level: The contour of the formwork level can be displayed on the plan.

Show tile level: The contour of the tile level can be displayed on the plan.

Drawing elements: The drawing elements that are visible on the screen at the time the plan is placed are represented in the rafter-purlin plan.

Display building sections: Via the menu 'Views, Sections' you can create section areas and a section path. The position of these sections can be drawn into the rafter-purlin plan. To do this, enable this option.

Display chimney: This switch allows the chimney to be displayed.

Hatchings and fills: Here you can choose a hatching setting.

Text style for labels: A text style can be selected for the labels in the rafter-purlin plan. If no text style is selected here, the text style from the plan template will be used.

Text style for text box: A text style can be selected for the text field in the wall plan.

Elementation: With this setting, roof elements can be represented in the rafter-purlin plan. Depending on the setting, they are either only displayed, or also labeled or additionally dimensioned. For the representation, the elements are filled with a pale background color. All representation objects are placed on their own layer.

Floor plan to be displayed: If walls have been entered in the floor plan, you can set here from which storey the walls should be displayed.

Display in a drawing: In a drawing, either the entire roof or each roof surface individually can be placed. If each roof surface is inserted individually on the plan, all roof surfaces are rotated so that the eave runs parallel to the lower plan edge.

Plan title: A plan title can be entered for the plan, which will be displayed in the text field.

Roof components: This list is used to select the bar-type groups and partly also component groups (e.g. fittings) that should be represented on the plan. Only those roof components that exist on the current roof are always shown in the list.

In addition to the switches for turning individual roof components on and off, there are switches with which the labeling of these roof components can be controlled per roof surface. If the checkbox 'B' for a roof component group is enabled, you can, after leaving the dialog with 'Ok', graphically select the roof surfaces for which the respective roof component group should be labeled.

Next to the column with the roof components there is the selection for component labeling. Here you select one of the saved settings that defines how the component labeling should be generated. With the icon to the right of the field you can review and modify the settings. If you do not want a label for a roof component group, select the setting 'no setting'.

Profile member labeling: For profile bars, a separate component labeling can be selected that is used across roof surfaces.

Measurement units: In this field you select the setting for the measurement units. You can review and modify the settings using the icon to the right of the field.

Ceiling panels: In the rafter-purlin plan, beams from the ceiling panels can also be displayed. Here you can set which ceiling panels should be considered.

In addition to the switches for turning individual ceiling panels on and off, there are switches that allow you to enable and disable the labeling of these ceiling panels. This way you can have the ceiling beams labeled in the rafter-purlin plan like the other roof structural components.

Next to the column with the ceiling panels there is the selection for component labeling. Here you choose one of the saved settings that defines how the component labeling of the ceiling components should be generated. With the icon to the right of the field you can review and modify the settings. If you do not want a label for a ceiling panel, select the setting 'no setting'.
