Details on Layer in the Settings Potable Water

Information about the section Layer in the Settings dialog for potable water.

The layers are preset according the program specifications. The program recognizes the different types of pipes, such as cold- or hot water, by the layer on which these pipes have been drawn. The built-in symbols are drawn on a separate layer. The program then recognizes to which pipe type the symbols belong, based on the pipes in which the symbols are installed.

You are here:

Assistants ➤ Potable water / Drawing type ➤ Calculation ➤ Settings...

Also detect 3D layers

Enabled: 3D pipes from the Design 3D Pipe&Power module are also included in the calculation.

Disabled: 3D pipes from the Design 3D Pipe&Power module are not included in the calculation.

Layer selection

Clicking one of the buttons opens the Select Layer dialog where you can specify on which layers the respective elements are located.
