Creates a link between a master model and a detail file.

BricsCAD BIM

Description

The command is used to put detail references in a master model.

  • A detail reference is a solid in the model.
  • The solid is a Detail BIM type, which means that it stores the unique id of a detail in the database.
  • The detail reference is a link between a place in the master model and a detail.
Note: The detail reference is placed on the DETAIL_VOLUME layer.

Method

Choose which detail to insert as detail references. Then, choose one of the two modes to add detail references.

Options within the command

Existing solid
You can promote existing solids to detail references by simply clicking on solids. This mode is easiest one to use, but you must create the solids upfront.
Selection extents
Generates a directed bounding box around (sub)entities selected by the user. You have the option to inflate this box. The generated box will be promoted to a detail reference.
