“Convert Model to Scheme” in the Workflow of the LINEAR Solutions for Autodesk Revit

Drawing

Name

Freely defined name for the new scheme. The scheme will be saved under this name in the drafting views.

Scale

Drop-down list for selecting the scale. The scale affects the rendering of labels and dimensions in the scheme and can be adjusted subsequently.

Open Scheme Editor before Creating

The Scheme Editor allows you to edit schemes with different functions without losing the component connections.

Enabled: The scheme is opened in the Scheme Editor for any post-processing before creating its drafting view.

Disabled: The drafting view with the scheme is created and saved immediately after derivation.

Note: While the view of the scheme is active, you can also edit converted and transferred schemes from LINEAR Building retrospectively in the Scheme Editor by clicking Scheme Editor < on the tab Design: Scheme.

Spacing

Horizontal Spacing

Horizontal spacing between symbols of consumers or vertical pipes.

Vertical Spacing

Vertical spacing between horizontal parallel pipes.

Fittings

Diameter Bends/T-pieces

Diameter with which the symbols for bends and T-pieces are to be displayed in the scheme.

Wide Ear Elbow (only for Potable Water)

Distance between the pipes when the ear elbows are connected. You can enter values ≥ 12mm.

Parameters and Labeling

Transfer Parameters - activated: When the scheme is created, all commonly used parameters from linked 3D components are transferred to symbols and pipes in the scheme.

Disabled: When the scheme is created, parameters from linked 3D components are not transferred. If necessary, you can transfer parameters retrospectively using the tools on the Design tab for the workflow Scheme.

Label elements - enabled: The elements in the diagram are automatically labeled according to the selection of Label pipes and/or Label symbols. If you select the Label symbols option, you can use the checkboxes in the Activate components dialog to select which component symbols are to be labelled.

: Opens the Activate components dialog in which you can select which groups and variants of component symbols are automatically labelled when the schema is created. The prerequisite is that the specified parameters have been created in the components after the model has been calculated (Analyse tab ➤ Labeling ➤ Write parameters to network components).

Selection of System Classes

By clicking on All or None, all system classes of the current discipline can be selected or deselected. You can activate or deactivate individual system classes using the corresponding checkbox.
