Ductwork Centerline Width

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

The width of the ductwork centerline corresponds to the elevation of the ductwork. It is intended to give you some feedback about the relative height of your ducts when viewing them from above.

If the centerline appears to be too wide, check your DIMSCALE setting. To do this, type DIMSCALE at the command line. If it is 1, it is definitely wrong. If you are unsure whether it is correct, you can learn more about setting DIMSCALE.

Awesome, share it:

Thanks!

We appreciate your feedback.

Bring Objects in Front of Ductwork

Use the Move Entity Above/Below Ductwork commands to set whether objects on the drawing should be hidden by ductwork when using the standard CAD HIDE command.

How to Hatch Ductwork

You can display hatches on ductwork using the Layers customization command.

Loop in Ductwork Error

Design Master HVAC cannot calculate the CFM for ductwork loops. You can solve this by running the Coordinate Drawings and Database command if you have no loops on the drawing, removing the loop, or modeling the loop differently.

Inserting Ductwork Transitions

Transitions can be added to a straight section of ductwork using the Break Duct command.

How to Make Dashed Ductwork

You can set your ductwork to be drawn with dashed lines using the Layers customization command.

Ductwork Hidden By Circles

Ductwork drawn underneath a circle will become hidden if you use the HIDE command. Here are some workarounds for this issue.
