CAD drawing definition fields
Field
Description
CAD drawing
Specify the path of the AutoCAD drawing. The entities of the drawing are mapped with the elements in Planon ProCenter.
Code
Enter a code for the drawing definition.
Description
Enter a description for the drawing definition.
Unit of length in drawing
Specify the unit in which the drawing length is measured.
The available values are Millimeters (MM), Centimeters (CM), Meters (M), Inches (IN) and Feet (FT).
StabiCAD drawing
Select Yes if the drawing definition is used for importing drawings that are made using StabiCAD. No is selected by default.
Area measurement standard
Select the standard to calculate the area of spaces in which the enclosed hole/constructional polylines are present.
The standard is used only to calculate the area of the surrounding space polyline.
Note that the standard is not applicable to the surrounding rent to unit/rent from unit polylines.
If the field is empty, no standard is applied.
For more information on how to calculate the surrounding space area which is enclosing a hole/constructional elements, refer to the Space Norms part in Basic Data.
Apply construction threshold to enclosed polylines
Select Yes to apply the construction threshold, specified in the Area measurement standard field, to the enclosed spaces. This setting is required to consider the enclosed spaces of a layer as constructional elements.
If the area of the enclosed space is less than the threshold, the space is treated as a constructional element.
* By default, No is selected in the field. The field is displayed as read-only, if no Area measurement standard is specified.
* For more information on how to interpret the enclosed polyline area, refer to the Area measurement standards part in Basic Data.
