The Structure Drawing tab contains the following categories of options:
|
|
Molded forms |
|
LinetypeDefines the linetype used to represent molded forms on drawings. Select the desired linetype from the dropdown list. By default, this option is set to 0. |
|
Apply linetype on profile view onlyIf this check box is selected, the selected linetype is applied to profile views only. By default, this check box is cleared. |
|
Members / Stiffeners |
|
Graphic replacementIf this check box is selected, a line representing the trace of visible members / stiffeners is generated on drawings. The user can specify the linetype (near side linetype) for this line. By default, this check box is cleared and the 3D representation of members / stiffeners is generated on drawings. |
|
Anglular toleranceDefines the value above which the member/ stiffener section is not represented. It is the angle between the member/ stiffener section and the projection vector. In the example below, the angular tolerance is 15. |
|
Near side linetypeDefines the linetype to be used for the trace of visible members / stiffeners if the Graphic replacement option is selected. Select the desired linetype from the drop-down list. A solid line font is recommended. |
|
Show far side stiffenersIf this check box is selected, a line representing the trace of hidden members / stiffeners, below a deck for example, is generated on drawings. The user can specify the linetype (far side linetype) for this line. By default, this check box is cleared and hidden members / stiffeners are not shown on drawings. |
|
Far side linetypeDefines the linetype to be used for the trace of hidden members / stiffeners if the Show far side stiffeners option is selected. Select the desired linetype from the drop-down list. A phantom font is recommended. |
|
Generate arrowheadsIf this check box is selected, arrows are generated at ends of members / stiffeners. By default, this check box is cleared and no arrowheads are shown on drawings. |
|
Generate material throw orientation - stiffeners onlyIf this check boxis selected, marks indicating the material throw orientation of stiffeners are generated. Note: This option is valid for stiffeners only. By default, this check box is cleared and no marks are generated on drawings. |
|
Plates |
|
Graphic replacementIf this check box is selected, you can define how plates will be represented on drawings. By default, this check box is cleared and the 3D representation of plates is generated. |
|
Generate Material Throw OrientationIf this check box is selected, marks indicating the material throw orientation of plates are shown on drawings. By default, this check box is cleared. |
|
Angular toleranceSpecifies an angular tolerance. If the angle between plates is less than the specified value, weld seams are generated; if the angle is greater than or equal to the specified value, knuckle lines are generated. By default, this option is set to 0 degrees. |
|
Weld seam callout offsetSpecifies the offset for weld seam callouts. By default, this option is set to 0 mm. |
|
Weld seam callout thicknessSpecifies the thickness for weld seam callouts. By default, this option is set to 0 mm. |
|
Openings |
|
Graphic replacementIf this check box is selected, the user can define the symbols to use to represent openings on drawings. By default, this check box is cleared and the 3D representation of openings is generated. |
|
Center line representationDefines the symbol used for the centerline on front views if the Graphic replacement option is selected. Two options are available: |
|
|
|
By default, the centerline representation is set to Axis line. | |
Butterfly symbol thicknessDefines the thickness of the butterfly symbol in mm. Applies to profile views. By default, this option is set to 0 mm. |
|
Midship Designation |
|
Generate hull centerlineIf this check box is selected, the hull centerline is generated on drawings. By default, this check box is cleared. |
|
Hull centerline textDefines the text to be placed at both ends of the centerline. By default, this field is blank. |
|
Symbol representationIf this check box is selected, the midship symbol is generated on drawings. Note that dimensions of this symbol do not change. By default, this check box is cleared. |
|
Datum Line |
|
Generate datum lineIf this check box is selected, a datum line is generated on drawings. By default, this check box is cleared. |
|
Annotation styleDefines the annotation style to use for the datum line. Options available are:
By default, this option is set to No annotation. |
