Drawing Production Ribbon

Building Drawing Production involves using a host of drawing composition and drawing annotation tools, and they are managed using the Building Design > Drawing Production ribbon.


Tools are available to change the attributes and presentation of referenced files, and to create and manage sheets and drawings for Building drawing production. Tools are also available to create and place callouts, annotations, and clouds.

Sheet models created with these tools can be populated with Building views to create plan, elevation, section, and detail drawings. All can be dynamically linked to source models and they are continuously updated during workflow. Drawing models provide an environment for defining callouts. Sheet boundaries define the layout of construction drawings when Sheet models are plotted.
