With tools on the ribbon you can end Renovation mode, add objects to
categories, and freeze and reset walls to make manual corrections to the edges.
This Renovation ribbon panel is visible and available only while you are
working in an active Renovation session.
Two-dimensional objects, blocks, and multi-view blocks keep their own display
representation when Renovation mode is started and are categorized as existing
objects. When you delete, modify, or create new 2D objects, they display
according to the applicable Renovation category. You can explicitly assign
them to a category and change their display. Objects that were already
categorized in an earlier Renovation phase keep their category and
representation. Objects that are created new in active Renovation mode, are
automatically marked as New.
When an object is selected and a command such as Delete, Move, Rotate, and
Copy is initiated, objects are assigned to categories and displayed based on
the command. For example, pressing Delete identifies objects as Demolition,
and moving a door creates both a new and a demolition door and the
corresponding wall openings. Existing and new walls automatically clean up
with each other; however, demolition and new objects do not interact.
Activating Renovation Mode for the First Time
The first time you activate Renovation mode, a specific Renovation display
configuration is created. This configuration is a copy of the current, existing
display configuration with the word Renovation added as a prefix.
1 Open an existing drawing in which you want to begin renovation
planning, and click Manage tab ➤ Style & Display panel ➤
(Renovation Mode).
The First Activation of Renovation Mode dialog displays, and by
default, a name for the new display configuration is provided with
the Renovation prefix.
