2D/3D Presentation
Building components have both 2D and 3D geometries. The geometry
can be displayed in the drawing or the model of a drawing-model
pair or in both of them at the same time. If it is possible to
select the visibility of geometry, you can do it when adding a
building component using the functions on the contextual toolbar.
As a default, a building component is visible in both the drawing
and the model.
- Representation in 2D Drawing
- Representation in 3D Model
You can use the functions in the context-sensitive menu to
change the visibility of a building component that has already been
added.
Hiding Geometry from a Model
- Select the components in the model.
- Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu.
- Select Presentation > 2D only.
Hiding Geometry from a Drawing
- Select the components in the drawing.
- Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu.
- Select Presentation > 3D only.
Restoring the Visibility of Geometry in Both the Drawing And
the Model
- Select the building components in the working window where
their geometry is visible.
- Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu.
- Select Presentation > 2D and 3D.
Note
- You can also hide building components from the drawing/model in
the following ways:
- If the building component only has a 2D or a 3D geometry, the
presentation method cannot be changed.
- You can also select the visibility when adding a profile, in
the dialog box where you select the profile properties (included in
the Vertex BD Architectural product).
