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 Enclosed construction polyline > area >= Threshold value: The surrounding net and/or gross space polylines are subtracted from the area of the polyline. The enclosed polyline is converted into the FM CAD Integrator drawing.
Enclosed construction polyline > area < Threshold value: The surrounding net and/or gross space polylines are not subtracted from the area of the polyline. The space area is calculated including the construction polyline area. The enclosed polyline is converted into the Constructional CAD Integrator drawing.
If this field is empty, no standard is applied. The polyline is not subtracted from the space. The enclosed polyline is converted into the Constructional CAD Integrator drawing.
When using a ‘0’ (zero) as threshold value, all surrounding net and/or gross space polylines are subtracted from the area of the polyline. The enclosed polyline is converted 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 Enclosed hole polyline area >= Threshold value: The surrounding net and/or gross space polylines are subtracted from the area of the hole. The enclosed polyline is converted into the FM CAD Integrator drawing.
If Enclosed hole polyline > area < Threshold value: The surrounding net and/or gross space polylines are not subtracted from the area of the hole. The space area is calculated including the hole area. The enclosed polyline is converted into the Constructional CAD Integrator drawing.
When using a ‘0’ (zero) as threshold value, all surrounding net and/or gross space polylines are subtracted from the area of the hole. The enclosed polyline is converted into the FM CAD Integrator drawing.
If this field is empty, no standard is applied. The polyline is not subtracted from the space. The drawing can be converted as a Constructional drawing.
