General about View Generation

Planar Hull Modelling contains a possibility to derive plane view picture from the model in the background via the program Hull Model Drawings. The resulting view picture is of the same kind and containing the same kind of information as the one obtained from the interactive Planar Hull Modelling functions VIEW/CREATE or VIEW/DETAIL (see Information in drawings and Information structure). However the resulting picture is stored on the picture data bank (SBD_PICT) to be included in a drawing at a later stage.

It is also possible to recreate existing drawings and thereby updating all model views in them with this program. This corresponds to the VIEW/RECREATE functions in the interactive Planar Hull Modelling.

The program is started in the Job Launcher. The program SJ002 is invoked.

The name of the default file is SJ002.SBD and it can contain the default values described in Default Planar Hull Modelling File.
