Supports Tools : Drawing Tools : Special Frame Direction
Special support frameworks created in the Supports application have their frame direction set automatically and this is used to define the main view direction in automated drawing production. The Special Frame Direction window provides more specific control of this, and allows you to set a view direction on structures added manually to special supports.
|
You are prompted to Pick Special Support Structure :
The CE field is populated with the name of the identified special support.
|
|
|
Input a value in the field to define the frame view direction. For example, input W WRT /* to define a West direction with respect to the World element.
|
Click Apply to set the special support frame view direction or Cancel to discard any inputs and close the Special Frame Direction window.
|
Note:
|
The setting can be used in conjunction with View Direction, available on the Support Editor window, which sets the view direction to be opposite. The Supports Drawing application automatically changes a stored frame direction of West, South or Down to East, North or Up respectively. This can be overridden using View Direction to force the main view to be West, South or Down. Refer to View Direction for further information.
