Label¶

Drainage property bar

These three functions are used to automatically label the piping, duct bases and chambers.

The text parameters for the labelling of the piping and bottoms of pipes are saved in the text editor under the "piping" record. Chambers are saved in the "chamber" record.
If these records are no longer available, the active text parameters are used.

Tip

The text in each case belongs to the object that was clicked. If a piping or chamber is deleted, the accompanying text automatically disappears. If you want to delete just the text, you must do this using the Selection mode element part (press and hold the Alt key). Multiple selection is possible with Shift .
If you press the Alt key and double-click on the text, the text parameters appear and can be modified.

Label piping¶

bs_line_label_
To label the pipings, you must first generate the piping network. The material is labelled in Ø mm, the incline in % and with an arrow indicating the direction.

After you call up the function, you can click the desired piping network using the mouse.

Tip

The function is active until it is cancelled with Esc .

Tip

If piping is labelled and the incline modified, the text is automatically adjusted.

Label duct base¶

bs_base_label_
To label the duct base, you must first generate the piping network. The labelling is dependent on the height reference, which can be defined in the property bar.

While calling up the function, you are asked to specify the point to which the base height should be measured. The text can then be placed.

Height reference¶

bs_niveaubase_storey_
There are three different types of height reference.

Sea level¶

bs_niveaubase_nn_
The labelling is given in metres above sea level.

±0.00¶

bs_niveaubase_plusminus0_
The labelling is given in metres above the project null point.

Storey¶

bs_niveaubase_storey_
The labelling is from the active storey and in the active unit.

Tip

The function is active until it is cancelled with Esc .

Note

The base height's text is not automatically adjusted if any changes are made.

Label chamber¶

To label a chamber, you must first generate the piping network and set the chambers. The labelling is dependent on the height reference, which can be defined in the property bar after selecting the chamber.

While calling up the function, you are asked to specify which chamber should be measured. You can then click the inlets and place the text. If you press the Esc key, you are asked for the outlet point. After placing the text, the entire chamber text can be set.

Explanation

In the German and Austrian regions, only the height of the duct base is queried.
The text is then placed.
