Mode
|
Plan
|
Name
|
Shows the name of the saved view that will be
created.
|
One sheet per Dgn
|
If on, each sheet model, and all drawing models attached to the
sheet model, are created in an individual .dgn file in the selected folder. The
name of each .dgn file created will match the name of the created saved view.
|
Drawing Seed
|
Defines the drawing seed template from which the detailing
symbol style will be used for the callout.
|
View Type
|
Displays the saved view type. The saved view type displayed
depends on the saved view settings in the seed file selected in the Drawing
Seed drop-down list.
|
Discipline
|
Displays the discipline of the drawing. It can be modified from
the saved view properties in the Properties dialog.
|
Purpose
|
Displays the purpose of the saved view. It can be modified from
the saved view properties in the Properties dialog.
|
Seed Model
|
Displays the seed model from which the drawing model will be
created. This seed model is derived from the template selected in the Drawing
Seed drop-down list.
|
Filename
|
If on, you can select the file in which the drawing model will
be created. By default, the drawing model is created in the active file. You
can create a new file that will contain the new drawing model by clicking
Create New Drawing File icon. You can also create the drawing model in an
existing file by clicking Browse Drawing File Browse Drawing File icon.
Note: If you select
an existing file to create the drawing model, make sure the file belongs to the
same WorkSet, else the OK button in the dialog will be dimmed.
|
Annotation Scale
|
Sets the scale factor for text and dimensioning in the drawing
model. The annotation scale of the drawing model is used as the detail scale
when it is attached to a sheet.
Note: Only the
scales that match the master units of the seed file are populated in this
drop-down list.
|
Annotation Group
|
Selects the drawing annotation group that defines how drawing
models are annotated. The drawing annotation group defines grids, XY coordinate
labels, north arrows, frame annotation, etc. that are created in the drawing
model and are to be shown on the final sheet. Annotation groups are found in
the OpenRoads Standards under Annotation Groups.
|
Seed Model
|
If on, you can select the seed model from which the sheet model
will be created. This seed model is derived from the template selected in the
Drawing Seed drop-down list, except for the case when you place a named
boundary using a drawing boundary with the Create Drawing check box turned on.
In this case, the sheet-seed model is the one that contains the drawing
boundary. This is to make sure that the drawing fits exactly in the selected
drawing boundary.
|
Filename
|
If on, you can select the file in which the sheet model will be
created. By default, the sheet model is created in the active file. You can
create a new file that will contain the new sheet model by clicking Create New
Sheet File icon. You can also create the sheet model in an existing file by
clicking Browse Sheet File icon.
Note: If you select
an existing file to create the sheet model, make sure the file belongs to the
same WorkSet, or else the OK button in the dialog will be dimmed.
|
Sheets
|
Sets the sheet model in which you want to place the drawing. You
can also select New to create a new sheet model.
|
Annotation Scale
|
Sets the scale factor for text and dimensioning in the sheet
model.
Note: Only the
scales that match the master units of the seed file are populated in this
drop-down list.
|
Drawing Boundary
|
Sets the drawing boundary in the sheet model where the drawing
will be placed. This option lists the following:
- New - Creates a new
drawing boundary.
- List of empty
drawing boundaries (drawing boundaries that do not have a saved view attached)
of same View Type contained in the sheet model selected in the Sheets drop-down
list. If Sheets is set to New, lists the empty drawing boundaries of same view
type available in the sheet-seed model. In this case, a new sheet model is
created and the selected drawing boundary is filled with the saved view. If
multiple saved views are to be placed then for each saved view a new sheet
model is created and the saved view is placed with new drawing boundary. If
Sheets is set to an existing sheet model, then the first saved view is placed
in that sheet model, in the selected drawing boundary. For the remaining saved
views, a new sheet model cloned from sheet seed model is created for each saved
view and the saved view is placed in the selected drawing boundary in each
sheet model.
- Optimize For - This
option is available when you want to place multiple views and if the sheet
model in which you want to place the saved views contains more than one drawing
boundary of the same View Type. Following examples explain the use of this
option in different scenarios
- Say you want to
place an array of four named boundaries of view type "Section" and the sheet
model selected in the Sheets drop-down list contains five empty drawing
boundaries of type "Section". In this case, if you select Optimize For , the
name boundaries will be placed on the first four drawing boundaries, in the
sequence of their drawing identifiers. This option is also available if you
choose to create a new sheet model and if the sheet-seed model contains more
than one drawing boundary of the same view type.
- Say you have six
saved views to be placed and the selected sheet-seed model has only two empty
drawing boundaries. If you select Optimize For, two saved views will be placed
in the selected sheet model. For the remaining four saved views, two new sheet
models will be created by cloning the sheet-seed model and two saved views will
be placed in each of the sheet models.
|
Detail Scale
|
Sets the detail scale of the drawing attachment in the sheet
model. In addition to standard scales, MicroStation calculates following
recommended scales and displays them in this drop-down list:
- By Named Boundary -
(Available only when you create dynamic view from a named boundary) The detail
scale stored on the named boundary.
- Fit View to Drawing
Boundary - The closest standard scale at which the saved view attachment will
fit into the selected drawing boundary.
- Fit View to Sheet
Boundary - The closest standard scale at which the saved view attachment will
fit into the sheet boundary.
- Custom - allows you
to define a custom scale.
Note: Only the
scales that match the master units of the seed file are populated in this
drop-down list.
|
Add to Sheet Index
|
Adds the sheet model to the sheet index.
Note: If some other
user already has the sheet index in edit mode, the sheet model cannot be added
to the sheet index. In such case, a message is displayed in the message center.
|
Select a folder from Sheet Index
|
Opens the Sheet Index Folder Picker from which you can select the
folder in which the sheet model should be added.
|
Make Sheet Coincident
|
(Available only if the sheet model does not contain a drawing
boundary) If on, the reference in the sheet model is made coincident with the
design model. For this, if required, the sheet boundary is moved and rotated to
fit around the reference. If off, the reference is moved and rotated so that it
is attached at the center of sheet boundary.
|
Open Model
|
If this check box is on, the last sheet model that was created
opens.
