To trace the building shape and create an overall building space
-
Click
(Trace Room).
Activates the Trace space . Trace space is similar to Trace Room in that it is used to draw a shape to define a space, but does not have the room creation options as for Trace Room.
-
Keep the Trace space default tool settings, and follow the prompt
“Trace space > Enter point” (on the
Status bar prompt area).
Snap to the corner of the mass model coincident with the origin marker (coordinate 0,0,0 in the AccuDraw window), and enter a data point. This establishes the first point on the floor plan.
- Continue tracing the building floor plan. Snap to the edges of the mass model, and add data points.
-
After defining the last point on the floor shape, right click to
Reset out of the Trace Space mode.
A 3D space is modeled with the traced space as its perimeter, and is divided into floors per the Floor Data settings.
