Any drawing file that will be used with Unifier's Space Manager needs to be associated with a Level record. Each Level record in the Space Manager is eventually associated with an AutoCAD® drawing file.
To associate a drawing file with a level record follow these steps:
- In AutoCAD®, select Unifier > Create or Modify <level>. The <level> form opens. In this example, the level name that was designed in uDesigner is Floors.
- The data elements displayed on this Level form are controlled by the data elements added to the uCAD integration interface design in uDesigner. This form and its content is based on the selected connection (that is, the Unifier environment from which the designs were imported) while setting up this drawing file.
Note: If a picker data element has been added to uCAD integration, it will display on the form as a text entry field. You must enter a valid value. For example, if you have a Level Picker field, you must type the level name exactly as it appears in the space record form.
- After completing the form, click OK. The drawing file is now ready to be associated with a level record. This level record will either be created new, if never created before, or updated with new data if this level and associated drawing has not yet been imported into the Space Manager in Unifier.
