Details Icons

Scott Bulmer · ‎2005-10-22

Attached is a screenshot of the four details icons within the Navigator. Can someone explain what each icon means as I could not find the explanation anywhere. I'm guessing no box or circle means unlinked independent detail, but not sure what the difference between box and circle is as well as the meaning of the different images. Thanks in advance.

the SQUARE 'window plan' and 'roof/wall junction' icons are details that YOU have created from drawn plan and section window content respectively.

the CIRCULAR wall/floor junction is an independent detail created out of the 'Tools' menu rather than from existing drawn content.

if they have borders then they have been referred to with a detail marker somewhere within the project. borderless (square or circle) icons are details with no reference marker. i.e. not yet in use.

Ben,
Thank you so much, I was going nuts. May I ask where you learned of this info, at your convenience?

i have absolutely no idea . .

if it's not in the manual, it may have been trial and error, or from somebody else who was in the know . . .
