ProStructures Options - Shapes - Sketch Display tab

Used to specify settings for shape labeling in the 3D model.

Setting	Description
Sketch Size	Sete the calculation method for the sketch length. Select a parameter in the drop-down list and type a corresponding value in the Value field. Sketch Length – Type the length of sketch display from the center in the Value input field below to outline the shape as solid. If you enter the value 0, the result will only be a cross-section display at the center. End Offset – Type the distance of the end points of the displayed system line towards the actual insertion points in the Value input field below. Relative Length in % – Type the relative size of sketch display related to the overall length of the shape in the Value input field below.
Layout	Sets the layout method; one of the lines used for sketch line: Centerline - The middle line of the shape is displayed as system line. Insertion Line - The insertion line of the shape is displayed as system line of the shape (which could for example be the upper edge).
End Offset	Sets the end offset of the sketch lines to the shape endpoints. This is the relative size of sketch display related to the overall length of the shape in the Value input field above.

Description

Sketch Size

Sete the calculation method for the sketch length. Select a parameter in the drop-down list and type a corresponding value in the Value field.

Sketch Length – Type the length of sketch display from the center in the Value input field below to outline the shape as solid. If you enter the value 0, the result will only be a cross-section display at the center.
End Offset – Type the distance of the end points of the displayed system line towards the actual insertion points in the Value input field below.
Relative Length in % – Type the relative size of sketch display related to the overall length of the shape in the Value input field below.

Layout

Sets the layout method; one of the lines used for sketch line:

Centerline - The middle line of the shape is displayed as system line.
Insertion Line - The insertion line of the shape is displayed as system line of the shape (which could for example be the upper edge).

End Offset

Sets the end offset of the sketch lines to the shape endpoints. This is the relative size of sketch display related to the overall length of the shape in the Value input field above.
