PropertyDescription
Image
DB_BM.jpg
The Gauge Line dimensions of the profiles are read automatically from the GaugeLines.dat file (in the model, firm or system folder).
These can be over written by the user if necessary.
Image
DB_fact.jpg
Option to specify a set dimension to the end of the brace, or select a factor. (user input number*hole diameter)
Image
DB_Switch.jpg
Option to switch the face from which the gauge line is shown. (dummy arrows in the model will show the face).
Normally this is from the back of the L profile but in some cases it may be shown from the leg instead, the user can use this option to over ride the Tekla default.
