Options - Show Sizes

Options - Show Sizes is a toggle command that is used to both display and remove the user assigned member sizes from the screen. Issuing the command once places a checkmark beside the menu item, indicating that the command is active. The sizes are then displayed on the screen. Issuing the command a second time removes the sizes from the display as well as the checkmark from the menu.

In Plan Mode, only the user assigned beam sizes are shown. In Elevation Mode, user assigned beam, column and brace sizes are shown.

This command can be used in conjunction with Options - Show Brace Points and Options - Show Fixity. The other Options - Show commands will automatically remove the size text from the screen.

The Options - Scale Text command can be used to increase or decrease the size of the text in which the beam sizes appears.
