The first view to be created for the printout report relates to the geometry of the ridge beam. A dimensioning is required for this, which can be created using the button
in the toolbar. Specify for the new dimensioning that it refers to the current coordinate system and that it is displayed in the second plane. Then click on the members to which the dimensioning should refer and choose an offset of 0.5 m. By applying the specifications, the new dimensioning is created.
If you want to insert horizontal or vertical dimension lines, this can be done using the references 'Projection in U' and 'Projection in V'.
The roof slope can be inserted by creating a new dimension and selecting the dimension type 'Slope'. Click on a member of the ridge beam and extend the dimensioning as large as you wish. Then confirm the input with a left-click in the workspace.
Deactivate guide lines
If you see guide lines during dimensioning that you would like to deactivate, you can open the 'Edit Dimension' dialog by double-clicking on a dimension. From there you can access the display settings for dimensions with
. In the 'Linear' and 'Slope' tabs, specify that the length of the guide lines is defined by a fixed length and not by the offset of the dimensioning.
