Height
|
Sets the height above the current UCS-plane where
the shapes are inserted.
|
Start Offset
|
Set the offset at the starting point of straight
shapes.
|
End Offset
|
Sets the offset at the end point of straight shapes.
|
Radius
|
The rounding radius at shapes which are inserted
several times
|
Scale
|
Sets the insertion scale if the shapes have to be
inserted as 2D depictions.
|
Horizontal Offset
|
Sets the distance of the shapes, if a shape class
has been selected permitting an offset of several shapes, in the horizontal
direction. (SHAPECLASSLAYOUT=HORDOUBLE, QUADRUPLE, DIAGONAL)
|
Vertical Offset
|
Sets the distance of the shapes, if a shape class
has been selected permitting an offset of several shapes, in the vertical
direction. (SHAPECLASSLAYOUT=VERDOUBLE, QUADRUPLE, DIAGONAL)
|
Angular Insertion Options
|
If you select an insertion along a defined length
and position, you can select which point of the shape is used at the pick
point. Choices are:
- Shape
Start
- Shape
Center
- Shape
End
|
Insert in current X,Y Plane
|
All picked points are perpendicular to the current
UCS-plane before being evaluated.
|
Orientate after Insertion
|
When on, allows you to rotate the shape about its
insertion axis immediately after insertion. This is done by clicking somewhere
in the model with the left mouse button. Each click rotates the shape in
increments of 90°.
|
Insert Reference Points
|
The insertion points of the shape are entered as
reference points into the shape. This permits later tracing back of the
original insertion points and, if need be, their dimensioning.
|
Insert As 2D-Shape
|
After insertion, the shape is projected as 2D-shape
onto the current UCS-plane. You can scale the shape for a depiction related to
scale.
- Display
as real - Enabled when
Insert As 2D-Shape is on. When on, the
shape is displayed with its actual radius.
|
Close dialog after insertion
|
When on, the dialog closes immediately after shape
insertion is finished. When off, the dialog stays open, and has to be closed
explicitly. This behavior of the dialog permits the direct modification of
inserted shapes.
|
Keep Length
|
The entry in the
Length input field is restored at next
opening of the dialog.
|
Enable Chains at Points Input
|
Upon entering placement points, the last point
selected is used as starting point for the next shape.
|
Adjust to Workframe
|
Supports are adjusted to the workframe into which
they are inserted.
|
Connect AEC Lines
|
When on,
AEC lines (static effect lines) of the inserted
subordinate girders are automatically connected with the AEC-lines of the main
girders.
|
Cope
|
When on, subordinate girders are coped at the main
girders.
|
Cope Template
|
Select the desired cope template from the available
templates.
- - Opens the Cope dialog, which is
used to specify the settings for copes and to create new templates.
