Q:
Why won’t the property editor display the common
properties of the object I have selected?
A:
Increase the property limit under File > Application
Settings > CAD. The computer must assess each object
and then identify the commonalities between it and all
other selected objects. The higher the limit the longer
the selection process will take. Object property limit
ranges between 100 and 10,000.
Q:
I created an Area or Room and wish to delete it from
the Project.
A:
Select the area or room name in the Project Explorer
> Right Click once > Click Select. Once you see
the Area or Room name listed in the Property Editor
you may select delete. By deleting a Room or Area you
will also delete all of it's dependent children. You
may want to Re-parent objects to a new area first. Click
Refresh Display and the Project Explorer will up date.
Q:
How can I change a room name?
A:
Left click the room name in the Project Explorer and
right click to select. Change the name in the
Property Editor below.
Q:
How do I add an imported CAD drawing to an Area?
A:
Start a new project and create an Area large enough
to contain the imported drawing. After adding an Area,
the program will automatically set the new Area as the
current insert and display area. Anything you add to
the layout including an imported drawing will parented
by (listed under) the current insert area.
Q:
Why can I stretch some walls, but not others?
A:
Once a wall (mesh) has had a Window placed on it (been
punched), it may no longer be stretched. The Window
itself cannot be stretched.
Q:
How does an object rotate around a point in plan?
A:
Positive 45 degrees will rotate counter clockwise (Right-hand
Rule) and a -45 will rotate clockwise.
Q:
Why can I use OSNAP with one imported model but not
another?
A:
Increase the mesh vertex limit under File | Application
Settings | OSNAP. The computer must assess each object
and then identify the commonalities between it and all
other selected objects. The higher the limit the longer
the selection process will take. Vertex limit ranges
between 300 and 100,000.
