Grid Bubbles
Creating
Grid BubblesGrid bubble objects are dimensioned grid lines with bubble markers. This type of drawing notation can help locate columns and other primary building features on construction documents.
Grid marker objects maintain a constant size regardless of the drawing scale.
To create a grid bubble:
Click the Grid Bubble tool from the Dims/Notes tool set.
Place a line of grid bubbles by drawing an open polygon with the tool. The first click starts the grid line; the second click determines the angle of the grid line and sets a marker at that location. Each remaining click sets a grid marker.
Double-click to end the grid line.
The first time you use the tool in a file, a properties dialog box opens. Set the default properties, and click OK. The properties can be edited from the Object Info palette.
► Click to show/hide the parameters.
Combine several bubble grids and adjust the labeling properties to create hierarchical (nested) grids.
