Furniture design software DESIGN SINTEZ

Horizontal and vertical menu

The program uses two standard menus.

  • Horizontal, dropdown menu (under a command AutoCAD line), including the basic set of operations for creation of the drawng (menu "Operation") and all units for its construction. The units are divided on groups and intended  for manual insertion. This method of units' insertion is not practical. It is recommendatory  to use module Insert units, where you can change their sizes and position and to see their preview (if such is saved).
  • Vertical - contains frequently used operations and commands. Some of commands in it open submenus ("View"), which hide the basic menu. For exit and return in main menu press " Menu Sintez ".Others open dialogue windows for positioning elements of the project ("Worktops") or activate operations ("Render").
Under a working window is the AutoCAD command line (" Command: ") for start commands, entering values, questions or productive values. In almost all cases Design Sintez automatically operates processes in AutoCAD and you do not have to work directly with it. Naturally, its complete ignoring is impossible and consequently you need periodically to check the messages in it. They could prompt you about  an unfinished operation or for an exit at incorrect work.

Operations Copy and Create copy  - They can be used for new non-standard units' (2D and 3D primitives') creation and for copying of non-standard units. For copying of generated units use operation Copying of unit (you can find it in the Manager of operations and commands or Vertical menu) . It creates element nomenclatures and register the units in the program system. Otherwise the copies,created with Vertical menu, can't be measured with operation Automatically measurement of the units in the drawing.




Horizontal menu correction

Horizontal menu edition
The module allows to construct and change the horizontal menu of the program.In distinction from the similar operation in the module New Base, here it is possible to add new sections to the main menu and submenus to them.Depending on the screen resolution of your monitor, the main menu will automatically be distributed on two lines when the first is full. It is possible to add units or operations in a submenu, creating your own design of the menu (button Add in menu).  To add units it is necessary to activate the buttons Units register , Archival units register or Units from import show. In the list above them aren all programs, participating - described in system, units (Units register, Archival units register) or units, imported in system, from other user of the program (distant workplace). The list with the imported units creates automatically in the program with the purpose to not missed new units for addition in the menu, which is also your library. After addition of units from import in the menu, it is possible to erase them from the list (select them and press the button  Delete (Del)). 

You can add operations similarly too. Their Register is created previously (together with installation of the program) and it is not subject of change.  The deleting of units or operations from the menu does not eliminate them from the lists and system of the program. 

The operations follow step by step. Enter a  Name of the new menu (submenu).Specify in which section to the main menu or submenu you  want to add unit or operation.  When you create a new submenu, in the  Units register automatically creates a line There are no units. Specify this line and press the button Add in menu (irrespective of to concern it to unit or to operation).  The name of new unit adds always under the marked line. The units are erased one by one, without warning. The deleting of last line is not allowed. It erases automatically with the deleting of a submenu. A line from the main menu erases after deleting of all settings to it submenus.

 After editing of  the menu press the button Save menu to save the made changes. Open a new drawing (after that you can close it) or restart  the program to  update the menu.
