Creating and Configuring Property Sets

Shows step by step how to create and configure property sets.

Before you begin

You want to create a property set with selected parameters so that a room data sheet view with the selected parameters becomes available.

Navigate to

Module Overview ➤ Room Data Sheet ➤ Property Sets (Toolbar)

Dialog Property Sets of the Room Data Sheet module in LINEAR Building

Procedure

  1. In the Property Sets area, click Create Property Set, enter the Name for the property set in the Property Set dialog that appears, and click OK.

    The property set is created, added to the list of Property Sets, and selected for editing.

  2. Optional: In the Display in Following Structures area, select the structure configurations in which the room data sheet view of the property set is to be displayed.
  3. In the Available parameters area, select the desired parameters to add them one after the other to the Selected Parameters list using the button.
    Tip: If necessary, create additional parameters using the button Create New Parameter in the Available Parameters area.
  4. In the Selected Parameters area, check the units of the parameters and adjust the settings if necessary using the buttons in the fields of the Unit column.
  5. Optional: In the Aggregation column, use the buttons to specify whether and with what type of aggregation the values of the associated rooms should be displayed aggregated at the levels of the structural elements (e.g., building section or floor).
  6. Optional: Use the buttons in the Restrictions column to define conditions for the value ranges of the parameters.
  7. Optional: Use the buttons in the Calculation column to define calculation formulas with references to other parameters and/or variables for the values of the parameters.
  8. If necessary, use the buttons Move Parameter Forward and Move Parameter Back to adjust the order of the parameters so that the columns of the parameters are displayed in this order in the room data sheet view of the property set.
  9. Click Close.

Results

The property set is created and displayed in the selected structure configurations in the room data sheet view.
