Description
With the use of graphic variants, the layout of the drawing can be controlled in a simple manner. Different graphic variants make it easier to switch the plan layout quickly. The graphic variants can be structured differently:
Examples:
- Thematic structure: draft, technical plan, area overview, etc.
- Scaled breakdown: M1: 100, M1: 200, M1: 500 etc.
- Graphic structure: color fills, hatching, pixel images, etc.
- Structure according to output: color plan, black and white plan, grayscale, etc.
How you want to structure the three variants now depends on how you work.
The different graphic variants can be used individually or simultaneously aktiv switched and thus also combined.
Functionality
To use graphics, you can use the field Graphic assignments among other things hatching, filling and object lines can be added.
It is also possible to get the graphics directly from the library Quick manager in the area Graphic assignments to drag (by drag & drop). Then the existing properties are used as far as possible.
| hatching | You can one Pattern from the hatch file acadiso.pat choose. |
| filling | In addition to Solid with one color, can also be one filling with a second color and a corresponding gradient. |
| Object line | You can choose a pattern from the list of Object lines Select. This list can be supplemented with your own object lines. |

DATAflor CAD always sorts the graphics in the drawing automatically after creation, ie hatches are always at the bottom in the display order, text always at the top. Subsequent editing of the display order is not necessary.
Graphics can be assigned at group or object level. The property Schedule is automatically inherited by all subordinate groups and objects when it is created.
One of the other graphic variants can also be switched on in a lower group. This activation is not inherited upwards. After saving, the current status is transferred to all subordinate groups and objects.
With the options below Don't use for you can deactivate the graphics for the selected object types. All created graphics are inserted into the drawing with the height Z = 0,00. at 3D-Objekten the graphic is always inserted in 2D.
So that you have a quick overview of which objects have been assigned a graphic property, the objects are saved in the Mass tree shown differently 
. Groups do not receive any symbol changes.
As soon as you have defined the graphic, these settings can be locked for the selected group and used in the Theme Manager to save:
 | Lock unlock | Locks the graphic so that changes to the graphic made in higher-level groups are not adopted. |
 | Apply to New Topic | The graphic of the selected variant is saved in a new graphic sub-theme. The name of the group marked in the mass tree is used for this. |
 | Apply to existing topic | The graphic of the selected variant is saved in the existing graphic sub-theme. If the selected group has not yet been assigned a topic, the graphic is saved in the standard. |
