Room separator

Icon1 Construction parts toolbar
AR Objects menu > Room separator

In some cases, you will want to show parts of rooms. You can limit rooms using the room separator, a special polygon.
In the same way as for the walls, the program needs closed contours to identify rooms! Therefore, please ensure that you always make connections of room separators with the corresponding capture modes, so that no "holes" develop.

The property bar is visible as soon as the function ROOM SEPARATOR is started or an existing room separator is edited.

Pen

Pen used to draw the room separator. Room separators may also be drawn with pen "0". (This will not be printed.)

Tip

Further examples of room separators:

  • Using room separators, large rooms in departments (large offices/department stores/cost centres) can be divided.
  • Exterior areas such as balconies and terraces can be recorded as quantifiable rooms.
Workshop

Set room separator
Example:
Split a living room with an attached kitchen so that both areas can be shown separately. Draw the room separator from "wall to wall", so in this case also along the working area edge.
The separation line will not be printed. If you want to show a separation line due to a change of covering, you can change the pen colour with the PEN/LINE FROM ELEMENT function.

Select function
room_separator_
If you have not yet created a polygon, you will need to select the option DRAW CONTOUR.

Draw the room separator. Line type and pen colour are not relevant.
Attention: Only draw a room separator between the walls and never over them. Room-dividing elements cannot overlap.
room-separator

You must not press the  Esc  button to end the contour, but click again on the last point of the room separator contour in the same way as for a wall.
