You can change sizes on each of three axes (use buttons: Length , Height and Depth). Activate the button for each concrete size. The form hides. Specify a initial (first) and end point appropriate of the needed unit size, irrespective of a direction (left - right, bottom - top) one by one. The entered new values into the fields New are set for unit with the respective button for each one dimension. Proportional change of three sizes - Keeps an initial ratio between the three sizes of chosen unit. Select option and enter a new value into a field New. Then move the mouse pointer in other active field. The values of other sizes of unit change automatically. To set the new sizes press the button Set for each one size separately. |
Unit position |
|
|
|
The module uses
for exact positioning
of units in the drawing. It works only with exact values. The module
unites two of existing in the program methods for definition of a
position:
1. Positioning in relation to room 2. Operation Position
(module New Base).Operation uses deviations for
moving of elements in the coordinate system.
Position
in relation to room
- Presence of the generated room in the project is obligatory by
default. The shown room sizes have only an informative function (for
better orientation). Use the button Unit name for a choice of unit.
Enter its new position (it is necessary to know that the values into a
field Current position
- On length, On height and
On depth concern
a base point of unit, irrespective of its rotation.). The
entered values into the fields
New (as well as in Current)
are
distances from a zero point of room (front left bottom point, the walls
thickness doesn't matter). The unit of measure is centimeters. The
buttons "+1" and "-1" make
a direct deviation in a position of chosen unit with entered value into
a field Value
for moving. The
button Set saves
the current unit position into the fields New.
Position to the coordinate system - Changes the position of units by determination of deviation (Deviation of unit for moving) towards the current position of its base point in coordinate system (Position of unit for moving). The method of work is identical with the operation Position (module New Base). These two methods can work parallel (does not matter if
you work with same unit). The choice of unit with the buttons Unit name or Choice of unit
is set by these two methods for work with same values. If you
work with one of modules and change a position of unit, all changes are
reflected and in the other method (and conversely). Group moving of units in the drawing: Press the button Group selection of units in the drawing. The window hides temporally and the working screen becomes active. Select the units you want to move (specify an area from the drawing or select them one by one). After that press the right mouse button on the working screen. The names of the selected items will load in the list. Enter or selet distances for moving and press Moves button. To delete an item from the list, select it and press the right mouse button.
|
Unit rotation 2D |
|
|
|
|
The rotation can be made in two variants - rotation of a single unit and rotation of a group of units.
To delete an item from the list, select it and press the right mouse button. |
Worktops
|
|
The worktops are used for creation of kitchen design or at any designs, in which it is necessary to add a tabletop on the units. Operation executes automatically in a view top. You have to specify Position from floor level (by default - 72 cm), its width and kind. If there is added baseboard, it is necessary to have in view its height too. The thickness of the worktop is 4 cm., but you can change this value. Thickness of worktop - Parameter by default. It can be changed. After change and end of operation, the value is kept for the next start of the module.The thickness value concern to a horizontal and vertical worktop. The images of models of worktops are buttons for a choice. They differ on number of points, which should be specified in the drawing to add the worktop. Plinths -
Automatically generates the profile, specified in section on a back of
the horizontal worktop. The option is switched off when generates wall
panel. They are positioning above a worktop, taking distance of a
worktop from a floor level and its thickness. It has an own
layer
for rendering and it is independent unit in the project. Participates
in price formation and the Units register with
the identifier "TW"
( like a horizontal and vertical worktop). If you don't want to add
plinths, uncheck the option Add plinths.
Connector - The
option is active by default. The connectors are added to angular
worktops. Specify a kind (Perpendicular
or
Diagonal).
The last choice remains current for the next start of the module.The
connectos are not shown visually on the screen. For them generates an
element nomenclature for the prices formation with unit of measure "l.m." and
designation "TW" + name
of the current project.
Wall
panel - If an
option is checked generates wall panel. The option allows you
automatically to create units for facings, of panels between the bottom
and wall cabinets etc. You can create a normal horizontal worktop with
a layer by default Worktop and another - vertical
with a layer Wall panel
in the drawing. Then you must connect these two layers with different
textures. If you already have generated a horizontal worktop with
plinth and want to add vertical, enter a value for wall panel thickness
less than 0.5 cm. The purpose is that the wall panel and plinth were
not covered each other.
The worktop creates irrespective of an arrangement
(angle of rotation) of cabinets on which they are added. The points for generating of the worktop are specified on a direction at the left - > to the right (on a direction of a hour arrow). You can zoom an area of the screen (button with magnifier) for better visibility, or opposite - to make the whole project seen on the screen. Each worktop can have a different layer. Set a different layer for each generated worktop in the current drawing and connect these layers with various textures. The file names of worktops are created automatically. They are unified on two symbols in a name of each of them: a horizontal worktop - "TE"..., wall panel - "TV"..., plinth - "TW".... In the Units register they are saved with the first two symbols ("TE", "TV", "TW"), their unit of measure " l.m.. " and prices for linear meter entered in columns ( Price 1; Price 2....). Automatic - Creates
linear worktop on one or on several next cabinets generated by modules Cabinet and Base cabinets automatically.
The button Cabinet returns in the dawing to select the first and the
end cabinet (if have some). To put a worktop on one cabinet, specify
only it. As value for Position
from floor level automatically sets the height of the
first cabinet. If there is a baseboard generated with module Baseboards,
its height takes in view at definition of the worktop
position.
The operation can be used for insertion of wall panels too. If the option Automatic is active,
then the parameter Back
distance
is active, too. The value is in cm. and sets the position of worktop
and plinth in relation to a cabinet back , on which they lay.
The
option allows to generate a worktop so between a cabinet back
and
room wall there was an empty space covered with a worktop.
It is recommendatory to include the button OSNAP for osnap points of units in the drawing (from the status bar of AutoCad) when you work with the module |
