Quick-Masses

Command: QMASS

Description

With the window Quick-Masses you get the opportunity to quickly grasp the objects.

Since the mass tree with the assigned objects is displayed here, you also get an overview of the objects you have already entered Objects (CAD).

To add more objects, simply drag the objects from your drawing into the groups / positions.

A hatching can then be selected as a new object type hatching is created. In principle, the properties correspond to those of a surface.
In contrast to the area, hatching cannot be added manually Island areas be provided. If the hatching has islands, these are automatically created by the program. These cannot be edited manually in the mass tree.

Application

  1. Select the object in the drawing so that the Claw are visible.
  2. Right-click (and hold) the selected object.
  3. Drag the mouse pointer to the group / position in the mass tree of the window Quick-Masses.
  4. Place the object by releasing the mouse button.

Features

Once an object is in the window Quick-Masses the Features are recorded (e.g. distance, area, volume) and new properties (Graphic, Label etc.> Theme Manager) assigned in the drawing.

If the drawing is linked to a LV, information can be found on the tab Link. (see also BUSINESS-Link, GAEB interface)

On the tab Documentation details of the quantities are displayed: Documented amount and Exact amount. Once an object is documented, changes in Different amount and Percentage deviation specified. You can find information on the subject of deviation here.

During Capture of an object in the Quick masses window, you have two additional options:

Directly generate the Documentation To the object: After you have moved the mouse pointer to the group / position, press the key D. Then release the right mouse button. The documentation is created in the drawing.

For more information on this topic, see Documentation.

You use the same procedure to capture objects as XNUMXD objects. To do this, press the button 3.

You can move the groups and objects in the mass tree with the left mouse button. If you press and hold the button Ctrl, the group / object is copied.

The window Quick-Masses can be positioned/fixed like the window Properties.

Depending on the position in the mass tree, selected functions are also available in the context menu available via the right mouse button.

Tool box base 1

Info: Opens the Info dialog. In this, all the settings for the properties of the objects such as labeling, graphics and documentation can be made for the currently selected level in the Mass tree to be hit.

New group: Creates a new folder in the mass tree (see Mass tree > Groups). Or press the button Insert.
Derive contour: Connects the selected objects with the help of contour tracking and inserts them as one object in the mass tree (see Contours and objects)
Choose object: Via the object selection, you can add objects to the currently selected group by selecting them in the drawing.
Acquisition mode: Enlarges the representation of the groups and objects in the mass tree and thus enables easier recording of the objects using drag & drop.
Objects zoom: Displays the selected item or items in the highlighted group on the screen. The zoom factor can be adjusted via the Options can be set.
Mark objects in drawing: Highlights the selected item or items in the highlighted group on the screen.
Theme Manager: Opens the Theme Manager, in which topics with labels, graphics and documentation settings can be defined.
Color theme manager: Opens the Color theme manager, in which themes can be defined for various color settings.
Options: With the help of Options various parameters can be set that apply to the entire drawing. The changes within a drawing only take effect if the calls for the individual options are actually required.
Delete: Deletes the object from the mass tree. Deleted objects are not removed from the drawing. For contour lines (see Contours) this can optionally be switched on in the configuration (see Options). On the other hand, when deleting drawing objects that are in the Quick-Masses are recorded, they are also removed from the mass tree at the same time. A notice appears for this.

All other toolboxes you can show or hide a toolbox with a right-click and sort it according to your needs.

Tool box base 2

New group: Creates a new group in the mass tree (see Mass tree > Groups). Or press the button Insert.
Capture 2D: You can capture the objects in the projection (2D).
Capture 3D: You can view the objects in the 3D development of the object or in Processing onto a 3D surface of DATAflor to capture.
Derive contour: Connects the selected objects with the help of contour tracking and inserts them as one object in the mass tree (see Contours and objects).
Generate legend: Generates a legend from the mass tree structure and the objects it contains and then inserts it into the drawing (see Create legend).
transferred to Excel: Transfers the mass tree structure to Microsoft Excel (if installed on the computer). It is important here which group is marked during the export (from this node the transfer takes place) and in which state the groups are (closed groups are transferred as a summary, with open groups the individual objects are also listed).
Summarize the labeling: Creates a megalabel from several text labels (see Text tools - Combine text label to mega label).
Detach labeling: Dissolves a megalabel into individual text labels (see Text tools - dissolve megalabel).
Export mass tree: Exports mass trees to a selected directory or to a library in the Quick Manager (see Mass tree).

Toolbox properties

Theme Manager: Opens the Theme Manager, in which topics with labels, graphics and documentation settings can be defined.
Edit properties: Calls the info dialog of the quick masses. All properties can be edited here.
Visibility Manager: Controls the visibility of the object properties (see Control of visibilities).

Toolbox Link / documentation

DATAflor BUSINESS Item Link: Imports a specification of services DATAflor BUSINESS (please refer BUSINESS-Link).
Update LV: Updates the quantities in the specification of services or in the offer and the LV structure in the drawing.
Extended GAEB import: Imports a GAEB-LV and automatically creates a position coupling DATAflor BUSINESS.
Generate documentation: Generates the documentation for the objects in the selected subtree.
Edit documentation: Opens the dialog for manual editing of the documentation of the selected object.
Delete documentation: Deletes the documentation for the objects in the selected subtree.
Write mass list: Generates the quantity statement for the objects in the selected subtree.
Print mass list: Prints the in DATAflor BUSINESS active quantity verification.
Export mass list as REB file: Prints a REB compliant quantity certificate in data exchange format D11.
Bing Maps: Shows the position of the coupled drawing objects via Microsoft Bing.

Graphical Estimation Toolbox

DATAflor BUSINESS compatibility mode: activates the compatibility mode the graphical cost estimate for the objects in the selected subtree.
Transfer specification structure to DATAflor BUSINESS: transfers the selected subtree from the quick masses DATAflor BUSINESS (Provided: DATAflor BUSINESS Is installed)
Display graphical cost estimate dialog: after activating the BUSINESS-Compatibility mode can be in dialog Graphic cost estimation Prices, time approaches and texts can be assigned.
Show Errors: The Show Errors checks the tree in the quick masses for structural errors and displays them.
Services: opens the catalog with the standard services. (Provided: DATAflor BUSINESS Is installed)

Position images toolbar

Attach an area as a screenshot to position : Creates an image from a selected area. This image is attached to the position. (Provided: DATAflor BUSINESS Is installed)
Sent a screenshot of the position to DATAflor BUSINESS: Generates images of all positions in the selected subtree and transfers them to DATAflor BUSINESS. (Provided: DATAflor BUSINESS Is installed)
Show pictures of the selected hierarchy: The pictures of the selected hierarchy are displayed in a separate dialog. (Provided: DATAflor BUSINESS Is installed)
