Reinforcement of spread footing dialog

The dialog for generation of spread footing reinforcement has 3 main parts:

On the left are options for selecting a component used to define spread footing reinforcement:
In the center, you can define parameters of the spread footing and reinforcement (determined by a selected component).
On the right is a graphical view of a defined spread footing and the generated footing reinforcement.

In the lower part of the dialog box, two options are available:

Without reinforcement generation - the option is available only in case a parametric reinforcement hasn't been generated (i.e. reinforcement defined by means of options in the extension tabs) and there is another type of reinforcement (e.g. pre-cast elements) in the RC element. If the option is activated, the parametric reinforcement is not generated; if the option is switched off, the parametric reinforcement is generated.
Dynamic Model Update - This option, when selected, keeps the module data up-to-date with the Revit model.
Changing the geometry of an adjoining element or elements starts the Extension and regenerates the reinforcement to include changes.

You can deselect this option for
1. A single element (after starting the Extension clear this option at the bottom of the dialog).
2. All elements of a given type in a project, such as all beams (in the Extensions preferences).
3. All types of elements (in the Extensions preferences).
The Dynamic Model Update is selected by default for the whole project and all supported elements.

When you open a file, created in version 2012 or lower, this option works as follows:
1. It is deselected for existing elements that were reinforced using the Extension (you can select it when modifying reinforcement using this Extension).
2. It is selected by default for new elements.
Note: This option is only available, if the module is launched in Revit.
