Threshold for enclosed construction polyline area
Specify a value to maintain a standard while calculating the enclosed construction polyline area of a drawing. For example: 0.5.
The impact on the surrounding area of a space is as follows:
• If the area of enclosed construction polyline >= Threshold value:
The area of enclosed space polylines is subtracted from the area of the surrounding polyline. The enclosed polyline is converted as hole into the FM CAD Integrator drawing.
• If the area of enclosed construction polyline < Threshold value:
The area of enclosed space polylines is not subtracted from the area of the surrounding polyline. The enclosed polyline is converted into the Constructional CAD Integrator drawing.
• If this field is empty, threshold value will be set to '0'. All enclosed space polylines areas are subtracted from the area of the surrounding polyline. The enclosed polyline is converted as hole into the FM CAD Integrator drawing.
Threshold for enclosed hole polyline area
Specify a value to maintain a standard while calculating the enclosed whole polyline area of a drawing. For example: 4.
The impact on the surrounding area of a space is as follows:
• If the area of enclosed hole polyline area >= Threshold value:
The area of enclosed space polylines is subtracted from the area of the surrounding polyline. The enclosed polyline is converted into the FM CAD Integrator drawing.
• If the area of enclosed hole polyline area < Threshold value:
The area of enclosed space polylines is not subtracted from the area of the surrounding polyline. The enclosed polyline is converted into the Constructional CAD Integrator drawing.
• If this field is empty, threshold value will be set to '0'. All enclosed space polylines areas are subtracted from the area of the surrounding polyline. The enclosed polyline is converted as hole into the FM CAD Integrator drawing.
