The View Map in detail

There are two sides of the View Map:
  • The Folder Structure and the dedicated use
  • The View Settings for different Viewpoints and Graphic Styles

----------------------------------------------------

THE FOLDER STRUCTURE

Each Folder has a purpose and dedicated use. Some you should customize for your project and some you should not (because they make the template work). Let's check one by one.

****Sample Drawing Styles****

The first Folder contains sample views. You can use them as a quick start, just Copy / Drag those Views into another folder for your use in documentation.
e.i.


FOR DOCUMENTATION

This is the one you should customize for your Projects Needs. Notice that all folders match the Layout Book organization, If you change one, make sure you change the other to keep things consistent.
Probably the most important thing here is to keep this folder neatly organized at all times, to make sure you are in control of the documentation


PERSONAL VIEWS / SKETCHES

Good news if you are the messy kind, this is the folder for you: her you can create as many views for you to make tests, or simply temporary sketches, plans, 3D views etc...
We recommend creating on folder with your name, and everyone will know that's your stuff.
IMPORTANT: do not use views in this folder for Contractual Documentation (that goes in to the previous folder)


BATCH RENDERING

This folder is connected with the Batch Rendering Publisher Set. It is really up to you if you want to delete it, it doesn't hurt keeping it there.

To use it, Save there 3D Views set to be generated in the PhotoRendering Window




---Tittle Blocks & Master Layout Content---

This folder is where you keep Layout Book related content that would be standard and reused in multiple Drawings.
That's why there are Legends and title blocks. Feel free to include Scale bars, Symbols and other common content.



----------------------------------------------------

THE VIEW SETTINGS





In the sample views you will be able to review the different view settings assigned to different view styles.
View Filters have been organized in a way that the Drawing /Graphic Styles will be aligned by names for :

  • Layer Combination
  • Model View Option 
  • Graphic Override 
  • Renovation filter
While the other view filters are given in the template, will control settings but not directly related to Graphic Styles:
  • Scale
  • Pen Set
And finally Structure Display - which you really don't change very often.
