Drawing Bar Arrangements

Another way to create bar arrangements is by drawing a 2D symbol using the graphic functions of the 2D graphic plug-in.

First draw a rectangle. Within the rectangle draw the ‘bars’ as lines. Select the rectangle and lines using a selection frame and save the elements as a 2D symbol in the catalog.

 

Drawing a bar arrangement and saving it as a 2D symbol:

The 2D symbol drawn can be imported using the ’2D’ button. The surrounding rectangle is then removed and only the lines will be imported as bars.

The dimensions of the bars can be modified as usual in the corresponding profile. Every window construction always contains automatically a profile for bars.
