sheathing into fields. You can define individual origin points and
sheathing directions for each field.
Divide sheathing into fields with a polyline as follows:
- Select
Floor Joists, Roof Rafters > Sheathing
> 
Define Sheathing Base Point.
- Select the method of selecting the structural layer, and select
the structure and the structural layer (type SHEET).

- Select the points of the division line, locking the cursor if
necessary.
- After selecting the end point of the division line, select
Confirm.
Note
- The division line should continue unbroken from one end of the
horizontal structure to the other, but should not go over the
end.
- When sheathing is divided into fields, the program will add one
origin point to each field. You can change the direction of the
sheathing by editing the origin point.
