General approach in the Crop Layout module
Module(s): Crop Layout
The Crop Layout module allows you to ”cut” oversize layouts into smaller ”sub-layouts”. The original layout itself is not affected by this operation.
General approach
- Assemble the layout in the Layout module.
- Switch to the Crop Layout module and define one or several borders using Layout Border. The desired sections are displayed within these layout borders.
- Use Convert Layout Section to cut out the section(s). Each section is saved as a separate layout.
- You can use Load Layout Section or Layout to load and check the layout sections.
- You can use Site Plan-Specific Layout Border to create a grid with appropriate labeling and correct any irregularities in the layout border.
- If you want, you can position other drawing files in the section using Layout Element or NDW Layout Element. Note, however, that these are not cut. When the drop-in point is within the layout border, the drawing files are positioned in such a way that they are congruent.
- Print the result using the Print Layouts tool in the Layout module.
