Lengthen / shorten pressure plates / face caps

Toolbar: SYSCAD GENERATING SECTIONS -> SYSFLY Pressure plate/face cap -> kgl_ddprofkor

Ribbon: SYSCAD Gener. Sections -> Press. Plate / Face Cap -> kgl_ddprofkor

 

This function is used to assign, with reference to the base profile, different lengths to pressure plates or face caps. (Pressure plates / face caps need to be assigned before.)

Example:

The mullion profiles of the facade are 3050 mm long. The pressure plate should be 20 mm shorter than the mullion profile. The face cap should only be 15 mm shorter.

Call the program "Adapt pressure plates / face caps" and select all respective mullion profiles via the 'Crossing' window from the right to the left. Windows and mounting frames are ignored by the program.

kap5_50

 

Enter the described values into the dialog box.

Pressure Plates: -20

Face Caps: -15

 

Create level for pressure plates / face caps

 

Toolbar: SYSCAD GENERATING SECTIONS -> SYSFLY Pressure plate/face cap -> Druck - Deck-Profil-Ebene anlegen

Ribbon: SYSCAD Gener. Sections -> Press. Plate / Face Cap -> Druck - Deck-Profil-Ebene anlegen

 

SYSCAD generates separate levels for pressure plates and face caps. (Pressure plates / face caps need to be assigned before.) The separate levels can be processed using the following commands. So the calculation of the cut lengths is independent of the selected transom connection and is done within the layer according to the respective contour.

 

Delete level for pressure plates / face caps

 

Toolbar: SYSCAD GENERATING SECTIONS -> SYSFLY Pressure plate/face cap -> Druck - Deck-Profil-Ebene entfernen

Ribbon: SYSCAD Gener. Sections -> Press. Plate / Face Cap -> Druck - Deck-Profil-Ebene entfernen

 

SYSCAD deletes the separate levels of pressure plates and face caps from the selected elevation. The cut list calculates the profiles according to the assigned transom connections again.

 

Main profile - level active

 

Toolbar: SYSCAD GENERATING SECTIONS -> SYSFLY Pressure plate/face cap -> Hauptprofil-Ebene aktiv

Ribbon: SYSCAD Gener. Sections -> Press. Plate / Face Cap -> Hauptprofil-Ebene aktiv

 

It is used to only modify the contours of the main profiles when stretching by means of the grips or using the command STRETCH.

Attention: When using the commands MOVE and DELETE the levels are not observed. This means that the whole profile could possibly be deleted.

 

Pressure plate - level active

 

Toolbar: SYSCAD GENERATING SECTIONS -> SYSFLY Pressure plate/face cap -> Druckprofil-Ebene aktiv

Ribbon: SYSCAD Gener. Sections -> Press. Plate / Face Cap -> Druckprofil-Ebene aktiv

 

It is used to only modify the contours of the pressure plates when stretching by means of the grips or using the command STRETCH.

Attention: When using the commands MOVE and DELETE the levels are not observed. This means that the whole profile could possibly be deleted.

To delete pressure plates please use the command "Delete pressure plate / face cap". To divide pressure plates use the the command "Divide profile". The divided parts have got grips at the first segment for further processing. When double-clicking the next segment the grips are activated at the selected segment.

 

Face cap - level active

 

Toolbar: SYSCAD GENERATING SECTIONS -> SYSFLY Pressure plate/face cap -> Deckprofil-Ebene aktiv

Ribbon: SYSCAD Gener. Sections -> Press. Plate / Face Cap -> Deckprofil-Ebene aktiv

 

It is used to only modify the contours of the face caps when stretching by means of the grips or using the command STRETCH.

Attention: When using the commands MOVE and DELETE the levels are not observed. This means that the whole profile could possibly be deleted.

To delete face caps please use the command "Delete pressure plate / face cap". To divide face caps use the the command "Divide profile". The divided parts have got grips at the first segment for further processing. When double-clicking the next segment the grips are activated at the selected segment.

 

Delete pressure plate / face cap

 

Toolbar: SYSCAD GENERATING SECTIONS -> SYSFLY Pressure plate/face cap -> Druck- Deckprofil löschen

Ribbon: SYSCAD Gener. Sections -> Press. Plate / Face Cap -> Druck- Deckprofil löschen

 

This command is used to delete single pressure plates or face caps at the respective level.

Attention: The standard AutoCAD/BricsCAD command DELETE deletes the whole profile. In case you deleted the whole profile by mistake it is possible to turn back  the step by means of BACK.

 

Activate the piece

Toolbar: SYSCAD GENERATING SECTIONS -> SYSFLY Pressure plate/face cap -> Activate part

Ribbon: SYSCAD Gener. Sections -> Press. Plate / Face Cap -> Activate part

 

This command can be used to activate a partial piece for editing.

 

Copy pressure plate level

Toolbar: SYSCAD GENERATING SECTIONS -> SYSFLY Pressure plate/face cap -> Copy print profile layer

Ribbon: SYSCAD Gener. Sections -> Press. Plate / Face Cap -> Copy print profile layer

This copies the profiles of the print profile layer to the cover profile layer.
