While making a drawing, you can position the cursor at snap points of objects (profiles or plates).
To begin specifying snap settings, open the Snap Mode dialog from:
- Menu: Steel > Tools > Workspace > Object snap settings
- Ribbon: ASD - Model > Tools > Object snap settings
- Toolbar: Workspace > Object snap settings
- Command line: RBCS_PSNAP.
Specify snap points:
 |
axis - snap point: plate - plate center profile - 3 snap points on the bar axis: beginning, middle, and end |
 |
outer corners - snap points are the corners of the outer contour circumscribed on a cross-section |
 |
inner corners - snap points are the inner corners of a section as shown in the drawing |
 |
outer midpoints - snap points are the midpoints of outer contour sides of a section |
 |
inner midpoints - snap points are the midpoints of section inner sides |
|
|
composite sections - snap points are specified for each part of a composite section |
If Auto is selected, snap points are positioned on the axis.
