Drawing Styles

Advance Steel offers a variety of drawing styles for creating general arrangement drawings, sections, and shop drawings in various designs.

A drawing style is a group of instructions used to create a detail drawing and defines the elements that are displayed, including labeling and dimensioning preferences.

The predefined drawing styles are different for each installation and country. Custom drawing styles are defined using the Drawing Style Manager. For more details, refer to the Create and Manage Drawings section of the Advance Steel help.
