Data

Shows the kind of information which is displayed in color in the model. The kinds of data vary in the different disciplines.

Data type

continuous: The data are displayed by a color transition between the upper (maximum) and lower (minim) value.

discrete: Data in evenly distributed valence intervals are assigned with preset colors in a fix sequence.

Unit

Shows the unit in which the visualization of the information is carried out.

Color assignment

For the continuous data type, you can select the colors for the upper and lower data value using the ... button.

Visualize only current system

Activated: If there are several systems in the project, only the system selected in the calculation dialog is visualized.

Deactivated: If there are several systems in the project, all systems are visualized.

Zoom extents

Activated: During visualization, the whole model is shown.

Deactivated: The visualization takes place in the currently shown model section.

Line thickness (LTH)

This setting is not relevant in Revit.

Reset colors

Activated: After finishing the visualization, the pipes or ducts are returned to their original color display.

Deactivated: After finishing the visualization, the pipes or ducts keep the colors of the visualization. This way the color display of the visualization can be used in sheets.
