Structural & Non Structural Groups


Recommended Posts

In Advanced section properties you can have separate fills for each type Structural and non-structural ie, Building and furniture. Where is each component defined? or is it by default and can you change the definition of each item say furniture make it structural????

Thanks

Yes, Hans-Olav is correct. It is also pretty well described in the VW Help. Search for Advanced Section Viewport Properties

 

an excerpt:

Certain 3D objects can be designated as structural, allowing their appearance to merge with other structural objects on the section plane. Merged objects display as a single unit with one continuous fill. The following objects can be designated as structural by selecting Merge with Structural Objects in Sections from the Object Info palette. 

●        CSG solids (add/subtract/intersect/section)

●        Deforms (generic solid)

●        Extrudes

●        Multiple extrudes

●        Extrude along paths

●        Chain extrudes

●        Tapered extrudes

●        Cylinders (extrude)

●        Extruded rectangles (extrude)

●        Extruded polygons (mesh)

●        Meshes

●        Subdivisions

●        Solids (sphere/cone/hemisphere)

●        Sweeps

●        Stair structures (top face, bottom face, front face, inside/outside)
