Drawing Derivation: Functions
Drawing > Itemisation/Detailing > Derive
Use the functions of the Derive menu to automatically create workshop, detail, overall, production and mounting drawings, without having to close your current drawing. The following options are available:

Use this function to create mounting drawings. |
|
Use this function to change or update mounting drawings. |
|
This function can be used to define separately for each purpose, for example for assemblies, I-profiles, sheets, etc., which drawing frames combines with which scales should be used. This also significantly reduces performance when creating drawings, as HiCAD does not have to search through all drawing frames and scales. |
|
Use this function to adjust derived drawings, e.g. for part annotation and the assignment of article and document attributes. |
|
Use this function to specify the settings for AutoDimensioning in derived drawings. |
|
Compatibility up to HiCAD 2021 As of HiCAD 2022, detail drawings can only be created via the Derive drawing function. However, the previous functions for printing, opening and deleting detail drawings in steel engineering can still be found in this menu |
Please note:
Derived drawings which were not created as sheet views of the current drawing, but in a new drawing, will be automatically saved by HiCAD to the same directory to which the original drawing has been saved. The file name is composed of the prefix "CD" and an automatically generated, unique ID, e.g. CD_263485165.
