5.3.2.13. Work with the components available in the model
To make it easy for you to work with components in Pythagoras Web, we have divided components into groups, types and instances:
A component group may be "Tables" or "Chairs".
A component type can be "Desk", "Conference table" or "Office chair".
A component instance can be a single desk, a single conference table, or an individual office chair.
Which component groups, component types, and component instances you have access to depends entirely on who you are and what organisation you work for. You will only have access to the component groups, component types and component instances your organisation has chosen to work with.
Working with components allows you to:
show and hide component groups, component types, and component instances
select components
deselect components
view general information about individual component instances
create information summaries for one or more components available in the model/all components available in the model
view components in 3D (i.e. make 2D components into 3D components)
add 3D models to Pythagoras Web
remove 3D models from Pythagoras Web
edit 3D components
make 3D components into 2D components.
Note that in order to work with components, you must activate the component command. For more information on how to activate the component command, see "Activate the component command" in section 5.3.2.11.
For more information on how to:
show and hide component groups, component types, and component instances, see section "Show and hide component groups, component types, and component instances"
select components, see section "Select components"
deselect components, see section "Deselect components"
view general information about individual component instances, see section "View general information about individual component instances"
create information summaries for one, more or all components available in the model, see section "Create information summaries for one, more or all components available in the model"
view components in 3D, see section "View components in 3D"
add a 3D model to Pythagoras Web, see section "Add a 3D model to Pythagoras Web"
remove a 3D model from Pythagoras Web, see section "Remove a 3D model from Pythagoras Web"
edit a 3D component, see section "Edit a 3D component"
make a 3D component into a 2D component, see section "Make a 3D component into a 2D component".
