Writing notes on a seperate layer will be helpful when showing others what i am working on but not so much for initial drawing creation. I think without access to components it is not gonna be much help for this. It is not an elegant solution but it works. I currently have door symbols in a component folder in loads of sizes. I don’t want to have 3d elements mixed in. I do a lot of 3d that ends up as previs and 3d that gets worked into 2d build plans but i also need to just draw up location plans that are just 2d. That sounds like my experience save that i am doing the first half of site plans while on site. It allows for any width of opening but then you have to flip it to do the rest.Īnd here is a visual representation of what I describe above: Here is a DC I made that does some of what I am after. This would enable you to draw any one of the four possible arrangements (in/out left/right) for any width of opening with three clicks. If you wanted the door to open “downwards”, you would simply choose top right and top left as your first two clicks. Alternatively, you click to the right of the component and the door gets hinged right. If it is what you want at this point, you hit Enter to finish. It rotates according to where you place your second point. Let’s say that is hinged left with door/swing to top of opening on screen. A ghost image of a default component appears. Origin pointĪs example, taking an opening in a wall that appears horizontal on screen, you click bottom left to establish the origin point.The basic parameters required are these: It’s easy enough to make a component and not too hard to make a Dynamic Component, but I am imagining something that goes a little further. There are many styles, but in essence it consists of a frame, a door, and a notional swing. When producing 2D plans (something that will be with us for a long time yet), we need to show symbolic doors and door swings.
I wonder if there is an extension that does something that those of us in building design have to do every day?
