Edgewall allows you to place an i-Line on the edge of the DXF/DWG line. You can choose which edge of the line the i-Line lines up with. If the i-Line has different sides, you can also choose which side of the i-Line appears on the edge of the line and which side of the i-Line faces out.
Use these instructions to apply Edgewall to a single DXF/DWG line. For more information about applying Edgewall to multiple DXF/DWG lines, see Using Edgewall on Multiple Lines.
1.In ICE 2D plan view, click the DXF/DWG line to Edgewall.
When you select the DXF/DWG line, it turns red.
2.Right-click and choose Edgewall.
You see the Edgewall dialog box open.
3.Find the i-Line style that you want to Edgewall.
4.To Edgewall, click the i-Line style that you want to use.
You see a preview of the i-Line on the edge of the selected DXF line. Assistance text appears in the top-left corner of ICE 2D plan view, telling you how to offset and rotate 180 and indicating the number of selected DXF lines.
5.If you want to change offset of the wall relative to the selected DXF/DWG line, press the . key.
This example image shows the wall before using Offset. The wall lies between two DXF/DWG lines and the blue line lines:
This example image shows the same wall after using the offset function. The wall now lines up with the outside edge of the DXF/DWG line:
6.If you have a wall that is different on side A and side B and you want to rotate the wall 180 degrees so that you can change the side of the i-Line that lines up with the DXF line, press the ? key.
This example image shows the wall before using the rotate 180 function:
This example image shows the i-Line after using the rotate 180 function. The wall has rotated 180 degrees and now lines up with the outside edge of the DXF/DWG line:
7.Press Enter.
You see the i-Line appear in ICE 2D plan view.
