Relative Positioning of Building Components

You can position new building components in relation to existing components or change the position between existing building components using the Robot. For example, you can change the distance between the windows located on the exterior of the building or change the position of the door relative to the existing walls intersections.

  1. Create the first object.
    For example, window1.
  2. Create the second object.
    For example, window2.

  3. From the tree, select the window you want to reposition.

    Alternatively, select a face on the building component in the 3D area.

    The Robot appears.
  4. Use the Robot with the measurements to position the selected window.

    To position the selected window relative to the unselected window, drag the selected window (so that it snaps) next to the unselected window and release. Use the Robot with the measurements to drag the selected window to the desired distance from the unselected window.
