Detailing manager is a component that can be used to apply typical components for detailing any structure. With Detailing manager you can apply multiple components with one click to detail the structure of the entire model.
You can define multiple rules for detailing. Use selection filters to control what kind of detailing and which settings should be applied in different situations. You have three options:
- Use Detailing manager to have a part as input when the cast unit is examined and detailed by set rules.
- Use a cast unit as input.
- Use components as input, for example, tools such as Floor layout or Wall layout where the same tool creates multiple cast units.
Figure 1. Example of Detailing manager. Here you can see that Wall panel reinforcement is created to the outside shell of the cast unit because it has class 4 and there is a selection filter for objects with class 4.
