Subfunction |
Description |
|
Surfaces |
Creates space arrangements from surfaces which forms a closed volume. Pick and select surfaces in the canvas and then confirm. Either click Enter or A. Another option is to use the arrow-down key that will present the Accept option in the canvas. |
|
Primitives |
Creates space arrangements from primitives. Pick volume primitives in the canvas and accept when ready. |
|
Sub-arrangement |
Creates space arrangement from an existing space as sub- arrangement. Pick a space in the canvas and accept when ready. The new arrangement will use the picked space as its envelope and as entry level in the new hierarchy. |
|
Table |
Creates space arrangements from table input. The function is further explained below. |
The purpose of the Table function is to easily create a standardized space arrangement with or without a hierarchy of spaces.
You are expected to add space limits (the boundary limits of the space arrangement) and dividers into the form grid. If a space hierarchy is requested the dividers must be specified in levels and the tick box SpacesWithHierarchy must be ticked.
The space limits and dividers can be given as surfaces. Furthermore, the dividers can be given as grid positions and absolute coordinates.
Once the form grid is filled in it can be saved into an .xslx file and read at a later time if needed. When input data is ready the space arrangement can be created using the function Create Spaces, however, the destination space world (SPMSW) needs first to be made current element (CE).
