For those of you who are making the
facility walls into 3D entities, PostalCAD has a built in helper for
creating the header over a doorway that was created when using the Door
utility. After
inserting a doorway with the PostalCAD Door command, open your layer list
and turn on the A-WALL-HEAD layer. This layer contains a layout
rectangle for extruding a doorway header at 6'8" above the door symbol.
The 6'8" elevation is a standard door opening height and can be changed
depending on the actual door header that you are drawing.
Another tip for converting the door
itself is to redefine the standard door block using 3D entities. All
of your doors will magically transform to be in 3D! Just remember to
insert the door block without any scaling using the Library Manager or the
Insert command and then Refedit this block reference. A ** Cannot
REFEDIT a non-uniformly scaled block ** error message will appear if you try
to Refedit any block that was scaled upon insertion, not just the door
blocks. The PostalCAD door blocks are uniformly scaled upon insertion
but for some unknown reason, they get labeled as being non-uniformly scaled. |
