Apply button

By default, the Apply feature works only with active configurations (those currently open).

Usage

There are several ways to apply configurations to a wall through the configuration window:

  1. Apply without selecting a configuration

  2. Apply to a specific wall layer

  3. Apply multiple configurations to separate wall layers

Please refer to the explanations below for more detailed information on each method.

1. Apply without selecting a configuration

  1. After creating or selecting a configuration, click Apply.

  2. Choose one or several walls to apply the configuration to.

By default, if a wall contains multiple layers, the active configuration is applied to the thickest structural layer if no configuration is selected.

2. Applying to a Specific Wall Layer

If you want to apply a configuration to a different wall layer, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Link Wall command within configuration window.

  2. Select the desired Wall Type.

  3. Enable the checkbox next to the layer.

  4. Click Apply to apply the configuration to the currently selected wall. If no wall is selected, you can select one after clicking Apply.

When the checkbox is selected, the configuration will be applied only to the chosen layer. If the checkbox is not selected, the configuration will default to the thickest wall layer.

Important: The configuration does not need to be assigned in the Link Wall command (within the Configuration Window) for a specific layer — only the checkbox needs to be selected for the Apply button to function.

Example 1: After the configuration was applied, but not checked in the Link Wall command, the tool automatically detected the thickest wall layer and added the rebars accordingly.

When the configuration is applied to a specific layer, the tool identifies that layer within the wall structure and places rebars based on the defined configuration parameters.

Example 2:

If no specific configuration is selected for one layer, but the checkbox is checked for both layers, the same active configuration (marked as No. 1 in the image below) will be applied to both layers. Then, the configuration (marked as No. 2 in the image below) selected in the Wall Link command will be ignored, as it is not an active configuration.

3. Create rebars to all wall layers within the configuration window

To ensure all selected configurations are applied to a wall, follow the steps below

  1. Expand the Link Wall Tab.

  2. Select all required configurations. In the configuration list select all configurations you want to add to the wall, and check the box

  3. Click Save Configuration to store the selected configurations as a group.

    This step ensures all selected configurations are included in the saved setup.

  4. Select the target wall. In the model or drawing, select the wall to which the configurations will be applied.

  5. Click Create Rebar command.

The Link Wall command available within the Configuration Window and the Wall Reinforcement tool refers to the same feature, designed to assign specific configurations more efficiently.
