Zone's Contour Tracing Settings | ||||
Aperture Size![]() |
The size of a square range, which searches for contour's corners during zone's contour tracing. The lesser the size of an aperture, the higher the sensitivity of a contour tracing and the longer the tracing time. 'Tracing Sensitivity' means here the ability to detect contour's small details. Tracing procedure obviously ignores twist's and turns of a contour being traced in case if the size of those twists and turns is less than an aperture size. |
|||
Check Height![]() |
The height above picked floor level, at which zone's contour tracing have to take place. This height should be above the highest opening of a closed space being traced, but below ceiling level of a mentioned space. |
|||
Minimal Wall Offset![]() |
This setting allows to find empty openings in a wall being traced at the moment. In case if the wall is not completely flat, the value of offset should be greater than wall's maximum surface offset and less than or equal to a minimal assumable distance to a closest 'oposite' wall. This setting is needed only if openings tracing is enabled. |
|||
Opening Tracing Offset![]() |
The value of offset from wall's internal surface inside wall's body. This value is used for openings tracing only. Openings tracing procedure offsets from wall's surface, then 'looks' down from this position seaching for possible intersections with opening's bounding faces. |
|||
Trace Openings | This option enables/disables openings tracing during tracing of zone's contour | |||
Use Materials |
This option allows to use materials obtained from elements in an active model as zone's floor and wall materials. When this option is enabled, 'Zone Tool' uses material of an element under pointer position as zone's floor material and material of a first successfully detected vertical face as zone's wall material. This feature is enabled only when 'pick internal point' mode of 'LSS Zone Tool' is active. |
|||
Segment Tracing Limit |
This option determines how many steps to perform during tracing of one straight segment. The point is that aperture size can be occasionaly set to a very small value relative to the size of a contour to be traced. That's why tracing procedure deliberately stops tracing in case of exceeding the specified limit during tracing of a first contour's segment and suggests to increase aperture size. |
|||
Label Position Settings | ||||
Label Anchor |
Point where to place a text label relatively to zone's bounds on XY plane. Available options are:
|
|||
Label Level |
Level of label vertical positioning relatively to its 'floor level'. Available options are:
|
|||
Label Offset |
Offset from an anchor point. |

Dialog Style |
This setting allows to choose the size of a font and graphical elements for all dialogs. Available options are:
