Conversion of Old Itemisations
Please note: As of HiCAD 2021, the mode Itemisation up to HiCAD 2017 is no longer available. |
Switching to the new standard itemisation
Drawing > Itemisation/Detailing > > Item. > ...to standard itemisation
With this function the itemisation of drawings using the mode Itemisation up to HiCAD 2017 can be converted into the new standard itemisation. The procedure will be as follows:
- HiCAD tries to obtain the existing item numbers including the settings of the itemisation as far as possible.
- Invalid item numbers remain invalid.
- Not existing item numbers are not generated automatically.
If settings or item numbers cannot be taken over unmodified, an according notification will be displayed, such as:
By clicking OK the dialogue of Itemisation with options opens. There you are allowed to check the settings, created new item numbers etc.
By clicking OK the conversion starts. After that a migration log will show you warnings, errors etc.
The representation can be modified in the dialogue via the symbols on the left.
The migration log can be exported as CSV file via the symbol above.
Only after clicking on OK the conversion will be performed.
Automatic switching to the new standard itemisation
As soon as you call up one of the itemisation functions in model drawings created with an earlier HiCAD version and positioned there - at least partially - with the old itemisation mode, the following message appears:
If you want to start the conversion, select OK. The procedure is then analogous to the function Switch to standard itemisation used since HiCAD 2018.
If you do not want to carry out the conversion yet, click Cancel.
