Concepts
The Floorplan Builder requires vector data in combination with the Map 3D to operate.
Main
Map 3D
Longest Axis
Set longest axis (action button) : define the longest axis by two clicks to auto-rotate the floorplan top view
Remove longest axis (action button) : remove the axis
Show longest axis (check box) : set visibility of the longest axis
Floor Clipping
Clip by height (check box) : activate horizontal clipping slice on all available point cloud resources
Clip Height (slider) : set the altitude (expressed in resource units) of the horizontal clipping slice
Clip Height (text field) : enter a viewing altitude (number with . or , as decimal separator) and apply by keystroke <Enter>
Clip thickness (slider) : set the thickness (expressed in resource units) of the clipping slice
Objects
-
Clear selection : deselect the selected objects
Undo / Redo object editing : undo or redo last editing actions
Delete object : delete all selected objects, keystroke <Delete> can be used as well
-
Enlarge area object : Enlarge the selected area object by inserting two additional vertices perpendicular to the object.
Create area object via axes : Create a new area object by defining each segment in continuous consecutive order. Finish by right click > stop. A segment is defined by two random clicks on the line through the segment.
-
Square object to construction line : this floorplan builder function is not yet implemented, use Map 2D editing sidebar
Move object vertex : move a vertex from a selected object
Insert object vertex : add/insert a vertex to a selected object
Remove object vertex : remove/delete a vertex from a selected object
Constructions
Create construction line : create a new construction line by clicking two points
Create construction line via object segment : create a new construction line by selecting a line or area segment
Select construction
Delete selected construction
Delete all constructions
Create parallel construction line by click : create a new construction line parallel to the selected construction line by clicking a location
Create parallel construction line by entering distance
Create perpendicular construction line : create a new construction line perpendicular on the selected construction line by clicking a location
Reference View
When using the floorplan builder top view the perpendicular “vertical” side view is displayed as reference view. On applying the floor clipping the horizontal clipping slice is displayed as blue line within this view.
Symbols
Symbols objects must be created in an area dataset.
By selecting a symbol the place symbol function (3 clicks) will be activated. First and second click define the base line of the symbol. Third click sets the symbol orientation.
