Creating a Panel Stacking Diagram

You can create a panel stacking diagram of the panels in the drawing-model pair in a separate drawing window. An optimal stack is created from the panels. Before creating the panel stacking, you need to generate the panel drawings. You can create a panel stacking diagram of the panels in the active drawing-model pair or of all panels in the entire project, or you can select the panels that you wish to add to the panel stacking diagram. The exterior and interior walls are added to stacks of their own.

1. Do either of the following:
   • When you want to create a panel stacking diagram of all the panels in the drawing-model pair or in the building:
     1. Select Classic Wall Panels > Panel Stacking > Panel Stacking.
     2. Click either of the following buttons in the message box:
        • This drawing
        • Entire building - By default, the wall panels on different walls are added to the same stacking diagram.
   • When you want to select the panels to be added to the panel stacking diagram:
     1. Select Classic Wall Panels > Panel Stacking > Modify Stacking.
     2. Select the panels.
     3. Select Confirm.
2. If necessary, type the number of the first panel stacking diagram, or the prefix and number of the stacking diagram label separated by a space. The naming of stacking diagrams is defined in the system settings, see Naming of Stacking Diagrams.

The program will generate the stacking diagrams, which will be displayed in separate drawing windows. The program will save the panel stacking diagrams in the project folder or a subfolder under the project folder. By default, the exterior and interior wall panels are presented in stacking diagrams of their own.

Note

• Wall panels on different floors are added to stacking diagrams of their own, when the keyword StackFloorsSeparate= 1 is defined in the WALLS keyword group.
• The subfolder in which the drawing files are saved, can be defined in the WALLS keyword group using the keyword StackingFileSubDir.
• You can later open the diagrams by using the Classic Wall Panels > Panel Stacking > Open Panel Stacking Drawing function.
