Drawing Rules

Drawing rules can be set to apply only to elements that satisfy certain criteria. Multiple rules can be applied in a single drawing definition. They are reordered to resymbolize an element before another rule does, therefore providing an ability to filter through a system with similar criteria. Symbology settings for center lines, labels and plan symbols are some of the available settings.

Drawing Rules resymbolize 2D plan symbols, 2D add-ons, and raw drawing output as well as applying a comprehensive list of label attributes. Labels have their own settings controlling label position, text font, text style, text height, text width, level, color, line weight, and justification.



The Drawing Rule dialog

Note: Drawing Rule attribute labels are synchronized with the DGN file working units. Set label units once, and drawing rule labels adopt those settings.
