Family and Part System and Drawing Rules

Building Dynamic View resymbolization is managed by two utilities. The Family and Part System, and Drawing Rules.

  • With the Family and Part System, separate symbologies can be defined for the Forward view, Back view, Cut, and the 3D Building model. The Family/Part Editor is used to create and management families and parts.
  • Drawing Rules control automatic placement of DataGroup annotation cells for Building components such as doors, windows, and spaces. Drawing Rules are managed in the View Attributes dialog's Building panel on the Architectural, Structural, and Mechanical tabs.
