Define the casting direction of a part

You can define the casting direction for concrete parts.

Set the rendering of parts to Rendered by doing one of the following:
- On the View tab, click Rendering > Parts rendered .
- Press Ctrl + 4.
Select a concrete part.
Right-click and select Cast Unit > Set Top in Form Face .
Select the part face that will face upwards in the form.

Tip: Alternatively, you can do this in the user-defined attributes of the part.

Concrete parts: Select an option for the Top in form face user-defined attribute.
Non-concrete parts: With XS_SET_FIXEDMAINVIEW_UDA_TO_AFFECT_NUMBERING set to STEEL , TIMBER , and/or MISC , select an option for the Fixed drawing main view user-defined attribute.
